Habichuelas con Dulce (Sweet Cream of Beans)

So, I am originally from the Dominican Republic. I wanted to share some of the recipes originally from there. I will also include the resource that I use to get these recipes. I do know how to cook them but these recipes are better if they come from an expert.

Now, during holy week, there are certain recipes that are tradition in my country. Since holy week is fast approaching, I will be sharing this one recipe that will probably get you thinking: Habichuela con Dulce (Sweet Cream of Beans) which is exactly that: sweet. You can find more about it here and find the recipe here.

Lots of time to work

I had a great day today. I was able to work on three WIPs and made a ton of progress on all three. Had to frog a little on one of them but no big deal. Did it and was done with it fast. Tomorrow I will be able to share with you my SAL. In the meantime, I will continue to work on this blog and make it more presentable.

Also, I’m on Instagram and Twitter if you want to follow me there! You can find me as @kassninacruz.

I’ve Been a Busy Bee…

Hello everyone!

I know I haven’t been writing in a while. I’ve been very busy stitching and trying to catch up. I truly apologize for this. I’ve decided to have some sort of rotation when it comes to writing and stitching. Therefore, starting Sunday, I will be sharing my Stitch-A-Longs (SALs), the last Monday of the month I will be sharing what I got new in my stash, Wednesdays I will be sharing my Work in Progress (WIPs), and Fridays I’ll share any work that I’ve finished stitching.

Hello World! I’m Back!

So I’m back after 13 years of not even touching my cross stitch supplies. I’ve been looking at magazines, pictures, and some posts from fellow stitchers with their amazing work. But my mojo was nonexistent.

In the past month, I’ve been stitching a little here and there. Finally, after discovering and watching flosstubes at YouTube, I gotta say that I want to stitch all day! The only bad thing about it is that I don’t have my stash anymore. I’ll have to start buying stuff. However, even with this predicament there, I have a total of 5 WIPs going on. I also have a few projects lined up but they’re all not all that big of a project. Just something to get me started. I definitely want to try SALs, challenges from Facebook groups, and more bigger projects with different fabrics and threads.

Let’s see how it goes.
