Hey! I know, this is the big “thud” heard round the world. I can not believe it’s been months since I blogged. Pick yourselves back up onto your desk chairs and pour yourselves a cup of tea (iced or hot) and let’s catch up! Funny, I’ve taken pics for months to share so you’ll go [...]

I am so sorry I’ve fallen behind on blogging yet again . . . So let’s brew a cup of tea and catch up on this past month! I looked up from cooking one chilly evening and found Merlin “supervising” dinner preparations. Actually I think he was trying to warm up by the stove – the down side [...]

Top o’ the morning dear friends! The sun is shining through and it’s looking to be in the 80′s today. Sounds like a perfect day to me. Is everyone making their St Patty’s Day dinner of corned beef, cabbage and potatoes? I like to serve glazed carrots too. I can’t wait! It’s my yearly favorite [...]
What a weekend!

Wanted to share the gorgeous sunset we had Friday night! I wish I could have gotten a quick shot of the moon before it changed, when I first snapped pictures of the sunset I noticed the moon was blue! I chuckled to myself as the phrase “once in a blue moon. . .” came [...]
Where DOES time go?

It’s Wednesday already? Not possible but my calendar tells me it is. <sigh> So much to do and getting nowhere fast. It is definitely fall here. Love the crisp mornings, afternoons are warmer, and the trees are starting to turn. I have been in baking mode and so far over the past few days have [...]
Sharing my excitement!

Sunflowers are such happy looking flowers! I found these growing in our woods. Wish the whole weekend was as sunny but our chimney proved to be our “burden” and we have 22 feet of work ahead of us. Hubby, my Dad, father in law and brother in law were hard at work Saturday, Sunday and [...]

I’ve been quiet for a bit because my Dad was coming to stay with us for awhile and so we built a room for him off our family room. Turned out so nice, with a bright big window and plenty of space for a computer desk so he can keep up with news and emails. Our family [...]

This is my new Quaker release, Faith Hope Love! I just love how this turned out. When the idea hit to create a design with a message that would have meaning to everyone this is what came of my thoughts! I choose Sampler Threads Freedom, Oatmeal and Cranberry for this piece. Can’t wait to see some [...]

Then I am baking a Sopapilla Cheesecake for our own Easter dinner tonight. I plan to pop on later today with pictures and stories about [...]
