How to Bead a Necklace

I wanted to capture the essence of her giving energy to the tree. It seemed full of life. The challenge for me was I couldn't keep her shadow out of the frame and keep the tree balanced in the picture. So I had to leave the shadow.

I live in New York City & we are so fortunate to be able to have a small container garden on our deck. We used all organic soil/compost, fertilizer, and plant food. This lesson was very helpful!

I thought this would be a great dessert for my family's Thanksgiving dinner. I watched the lesson and followed the provided recipe and it turned out great. A huge crowd pleaser. I didn't have a food processor, so I used an electric hand mixer which worked out fine. Thanks Rouxbe! I cannot wait to try other recipes.
