RSC in Orange....

I got 2 squared away blocks made today while the kids took over the kitchen to make a marble bundt cake. I was called in to swirl the batter since they didn't know how to do that. I think they have made a quarter of the recipes from his Hershey's Chocolate cookbook in the last year. We had a chocolate torte with cherries on top earlier this week... really yummy. It seemed to disappear without a photo.



Linking up with the RSC Challenge. I think I'll try and sneak back into the sewing room and make the 3rd one while they are distracted making homemade lemonade with the leftover lemon juice. I think I am off the hook for dinner tonight - we went out to eat for lunch at Southern Pig and Cattle and I think everyone is still stuffed. Yummy ribs though. They had a complementary ice cream maker (soft serve or creemee if you live in VT!) on the way out so 3 of us got a little cone. Very yummy.

I have never heard soft serve called creemee! Love your orange blocks. That's a color I don't use often but I like.

I never heard it called soft serve until I was an adult! We also had grinders aka subs! I think that is a VT and NH term.

Congrats! on getting a couple of ORANGE blocks done for your RSC Squared Away Sampler. Here's hoping you managed a 3rd block!!

Love your blocks! IT's interesting how the color placement makes it look like a totally different block!

I like your orange Squared Away blocks - it's so fun to see them in different fabrics! The baking adventures at your house sound fun and yummy!

I love your orange blocks! It's been such fun seeing all the different oranges people have used this month.

Fantastic blocks! Your color choices and fabrics make my mouth water! Or wait, maybe that was the mention of chocolate....
