ADDITION TO MY ITALIAN MEAL

I was so pleased with my Italian meal that I was inspired to make another dish. Chicken Parmesian with Rotini Pasta. Enjoy!

SPAGHETTI & "MAMA MIA" MEAT BALLS

 

On top of spaghetti all covered with cheese, I lost my poor meatballs when somebody sneezed.

I was recently commissioned to make a complete italian meal for someone and was very pleased with how it turned out, so naturally I wanted to share pictures with you all. Enjoy.

White Chocolate Covered Cherry Cake

I thought once the wedding planning was over, it was smooth sailing, well boy was I wrong!! Changing my last name has been a nightmare! I was at the market the other day and after spending an hour doing the grocery shopping, I walked up to the check stand, only to find that all of my 3 cards were being declined. Aparently, my bank closed those cards before sending me my new ones! WAMU, I want you back! Anyways, I am FINALLY getting back into my mini routine. Here is my first miniature made as a married woman. LOL

You can find this and other of my minis for purchase on my website at www.melsminiatures.com

Thanks for looking everyone!

The White House in Miniature

Hello all you beautiful people! I'm baaaack! Did you miss me? Yes that's right, I have been MIA since the first week of March becuase I took time off for my wedding and honeymoon. I have alot to catch up on, so I won't be making any minis for at least another week or two, but until then, I have some fabulous pictures of The White House exhibit that I visited at the Ronald Reagan Library in Simi Valley, CA. The house is in 1:12 scale and measures around 60 feet long! It truly is an amazing miniature house. If you'd like to see pictures click on the link below. Till next time, Toodles! :)
