HOW TO ROLL AN EGG ROLL, ILLUSTRATION

Steps to roll an egg roll, illustrated by me. The recipe for egg roll filling is posted here.

NOTES:
- Use some egg wash or water on corners to seal.
- Best if one person is doing the frying and the other rolls.
- Freeze only after frying.
- Do not over fill with stuffing.
- Don't wait too long before frying. Dough will soften if the filling is too wet.






Step 1: Lay wrap like a diamond and define your corners as 1, 2, 3, & 4 as shown in illustration.
Step 2: Fill middle with 2 - 3 TBS of egg roll filling and spread into a rectangle shape.
Step 3: Take corner # 1 and fold filling.
Step 4: Fold corner # 2 over top of egg roll filling and repeat with corner # 3.
Step 5: Roll the the filled egg roll on top of itself towards corner # 4 until the egg roll is closed.

COFFEE ICE CUBES, REFRESHING SUMMER DRINK

It's hot and I hate it. I've never coped with hot weather well. It's scarves & gloves for me. In the summer one of the staples in my apartment is ICED COFFEE. Every day there's about 1/2 a cup of coffee not being consumed. I have no idea where I picked up this tip but I'm so glad I did.



Everyday adds up to an ample supply of delicious coffee ice cubes. No more watered down coffee! Next up, I'm going to freeze tea & chai cubes. That will be amazing!

Not Your Mama's Craft Fair

My friend Bill, from Night Division, sent me a link to some photo's from the Not Your Mama's Craft Fair. Aw, look at my little section. My table was in the same booth as Night Division and C.P.HARRIK.

More foodie related tees to come. But while you wait...

Head over to Bills shop. Buy art & tee's. Support small businesses. I ended up trading one of my shirts for this one.
