Another Show

I have decided to do the Dickens Festival in Salt Lake City this December. I did it last year. It was eight day and that was just too long for me. This year they are only holding it for 4 days so I am going to be trying it again. Since the space prices for vendors has gone up about 30%, I have decided to try a cart space this year. I am in the process of designing it and figuring out my 6x8 space arrangement. I am also working on what kind of things I will have for sale there It will be held at the Southtown Expo Center on December 11-14 from 10am to 9pm.

Here are a few shot from my "store" last year







Will keep you updated on how things are going!

    The hours were cut in half and the price went up??? Oh my. It must be a good show, though to ask for that price.

    I always like to preview my booths and set up early to plan, it really helps. Set ups can be hectic.

Trees for the Festival

Image
As it is almost the end of January, I felt that I should get myself in gear and finish my 2017 Christmas posts. Here is the process I went though this year for the two large trees and one small tree that I decorated for the Festival of Trees First I measured the spaces needed down in my basement game /family area. This tree required a 7x9 foot area and the other required a 9 by 14 foot area. Next I put the trees bag where I wanted to put the tree up in each space. Then I got my ornaments gathered. Next was assembling the trees and checking to make sure the lights worked, as they are always new trees, so far I have not had a problem with lights. Then I put some of the ornaments on, the tree topper on, and the tree skirt around it to check how I am planning it to look. Next I stack the boxes I am going to wrap to had depth and high to the display Then I put out he other items I have that go with the tree theme. This one was a Hogwarts Christmas, of course.

Lasagna

This is an easy to make ahead and in quantities dish. Lasagna First I assemble my toppings And noodles. I use the oven ready noodles as they are easier and less messy Then I chop up my vegetables And add them to the pan with my meat. In this set, I have onions, peppers, zucchini, and hamburger I then fry them together until hamburger is well cooked and mixed with the cooked vegetables Next I start by putting a thin layer of sauce on the bottom top the sauce of my baking dish.    Then put a noodle on that sauce and spreading another generous bit of sauce on top of the noodle. Step 1 Next I spread cottage cheese on top of the sauce and mix it together, spreading it as evenly as I can over the noodle.

I usually use a mixture shredded Italian blend and Colby Jack Step 4 then you cover with another noodle
