Last week I was finishing my Seaside Blue dishcloth. When I finished it I set out this linen color. I snapped some pictures of my collection of solid colors. The golden yellow and coral-y pink found a new home, so they aren’t in the stack anymore. I love how all the colors look together. This […]
Ten Seemingly Ordinary Things That Bring Me Joy
Ten on Tuesday Topic ~ Ten Seemingly Ordinary Things That Bring Me Joy ~ What a fun one! The hard part will be limiting it to ten. Joy has been on my mind lately. It often is, but at some times more than others. There are so many small things in my life that are […]
Happenings on the Farm: Fertilizer Spreading
Summer is waning, even if I don’t want to quite admit it or let it go. Though I did love opening up windows and enjoying the cool air, when our temperatures took a lower swing last week. Fall approaching. That means in the farming cycle that we keep preparing and sliding closer to the days […]
Memoir Monday {No.86}
War Room. Go watch it. Take Kleenex. Beautiful, awesome, powerful message. Jesus and prayer intertwined throughout it all. Playing in theaters in America! Go support it. And I love the faces of law and grace portrayed in it. We need to stand in the gap for our country. We need to fight back […]
Thank-you, Hatteras
This photo and the words below it are what I posted on Instagram as we left Hatteras. We just had so much fun. That sums it up. I’ve had several people ask if we had a good trip and I’ve replied, “We did! It was just so much fun!” I typed out details I wanted to […]

It’s Clothes or Fashion or Style, Again!
Just more fun shooting a few pictures and talking a bit about clothes. A friend recently gave this shirt to Renae and I love it on her. She paired the knit scarf with it, as a belt, and her shell necklace came from our Hatteras trip. She found the shell on the beach and […]

Passionate About Marriage
I have a heart for marriage. I feel passionately about it. The commitment to marriage and the plan God has for marriage is sadly becoming lost and tossed away today like so much litter. I want for people to love their spouse, love their marriage and be grounded in God. Does this mean I have a […]
Yarn Along {Bruce’s Loose Tooth}
Working on this dishcloth. It is my sixth solid color. But it will be fifth in my stack, because I gave the pink one to my sister-in-law. I finished my golden-yellow from last week. I had fun adding a few photo props and snapping a couple of pics! The two shells in the photos […]

Quotes to Remember {No. 2}
Affirm your husband often! Husbands have a need for our affirmation. This is at the heart of the “helper” role and why God said it is not “good” for man to be alone. Your man needs your affirmation! Give at least one encouraging statement {really more than one} daily! ~Kimberly Wagner I realized why […]
My Pie Crust
It’s Pie crust day! Or post pie-crust-recipe-day anyway! One big reason to add this is because I have a three-ring binder that contains all the recipes I’ve posted on my blog. I print them out and stick them in it. They are my well-used, often-used, go-to, loved, favorite or family recipes. My pie crust recipe isn’t […]

Snickerdoodles.……. That Kitty waits…. Fantastically fun felt confetti…….. Packing up….off to visit grandparents… Cake to make…new […]
Coming and Going to Hatteras
Just a few more for now! These are a few pictures of our between-here-and-there as we traveled from Kansas to North Carolina to destination, Hatteras!! We took a side tour through the Smokey Mountains, caught a bit of the Appalachian Trail, saw tunnels and cool Corvettes, plenty of pretty views, played games in the car, […]
A Summer Outfit
I never really pictured doing style posts for my blog, but Renae and I have been doing some photo shoots here and there and it’s been fun! Just like categorizing my recipes, it is giving me a visual catalogue for clothes. While I’m no designer or the talented fashionista that many women are, I have always […]
