It's strawberry season! I buy too many strawberries, considering there is only one person living in this house. I found a good thing to do with the strawberries that are on the verge--very ripe, but not gone bad: use a potato masher to pulverize the strawberries into a nice thick "soup!"
There are any number of things you can use these mashed strawberries for. They work as a topping for protein pancakes or English muffin french toast. I can mix them with a Laughing Cow Lite wedge to use as the celery topping.
And if there is still some left, I can mix it with some plain yogurt, and eat it that way, or mix with other ingredients for some yummy frozen yogurt granola bars!

Joanne Sharpe’s quilts and fiber art pieces are filled with vibrant colors and joyous words. Her love of philosophy and her life work as an art teacher for all grade levels brings a special joie de vive to her work, which started on canvas and paper, and is now incorporating fabric. Joanne demonstrates how to use your own hand-written word to make a simple but unique small quilt. She also shows Ricky how to use Dye-Na-Flow dye to create a flower with a few easy brush strokes. Earlier in her career she designed holiday outdoor flags, and shares some of her products. On a field trip to Portland, TQS visits with Jennifer Murche, who creates incredible bowls with just fabric and thread. Learn her secrets and try it yourself!

Food for Thought is an exhibition of 34 innovative quilts created by the members of Studio Art Quilt Associates (SAQA), currently at the National Quilt Museum in Paducah, KY. The exhibit runs from April 10 - July 8, 2015. Here's what they say about the exhibit:

We eat every day, but how often do we really think about the food we eat? Every culture has its celebrations, family meals, traditions that involve food. Although these vary in different parts of the world, the impact of food is universal. Food nourishes and fuels our bodies; food traditions nurture our souls. Food For Thought is an exhibition of 34 innovative quilts created by members of Studio Art Quilt Associates (SAQA). With SAQA members residing worldwide, there was ample opportunity to reflect a wide variety of methods of growing and producing food, not to mention a host of regional cuisines and ingredients. In the artwork presented here, titles often hint at cultural backgrounds or the provenance of a favorite recipe, as do the choices of patterns and fabric motifs. Yet the world has become so interconnected that it is no longer always possible to identify a person’s locale through the foods they eat. |
