Blessed Easter-Jesus our Salvation!
Matthew 27:50-51 And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, He gave up His spirit. At that moment, the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook and the rocks split. Mark 15:37-38 With a loud cry, Jesus breathed His last. The curtain of […]
Life is a Vapor
My husband and son loaded up into our 1986 GMC work pick-up with our hopper wagon hooked on behind it. A sweet, old hopper wagon that we pulled all the way home from Ohio one year after Christmas. Hopper wagons weren’t used in Kansas like they were and are in the east. I like having […]
Tasty Burrito Pie
Here is a very simple and tasty recipe that my family likes! It is a wonderful way to use up leftover tortillas or tortillas that are drying out. It is roughly adapted from this recipe. I printed the recipe out, but I’ve never made the original! I eliminated the green peppers and went with hamburger […]
Busy Week-Friends, Work, Hay
Hello Monday! We had a busy week last week. It kind of ran together and I did pick up my camera a few times, but not as often as some weeks. And it seems that when we’re busier, I tend to forget more of what all we did do! The schools were on spring […]
Easter Cards
Several years ago, I was with my sister at a Sears store, having photographs of our kiddos taken. When I stop and think about it, it’s been more years ago than I really want to realize. Where did my babies go???? We chatted with another mother for a little and she gave me a wonderful […]
Deviled Eggs or Salad Eggs or Yummy Eggs
Easter is quickly approaching and surely, spring weather, coming-to-stay, isn’t far behind! I made deviled eggs this week and jotted down a recipe to share. For the most part, I’m not a cook who just whips things up by putting in a pinch of this and a cup of that and a dash of the other. […]

Outside Stuff {Hello Monday}
Spring came to tease us this week! We had some lovely days and did some outside stuff. I even slipped flip-flops on a couple of times. I’m ready to tuck the socks and coats and boots away. But it looks like colder weather is coming to hang out again this week. A look back at […]
Crusty Potatoes
I have a yummy potato recipe to share today. We all love these and they disappear quickly. Which is a good thing, because they’re best fresh. I love having leftovers to heat up for a nice, quick lunch, but some things just aren’t as good leftover. Some foods almost get better as leftovers, I think. […]
Spring Fling Giveaway Featuring the Color Green!

Sparkly Green Earrings is a fun, light-hearted read with wit and sarcasm and reflections on life and motherhood. What Women Fear addresses different areas of fear in our lives and the doubts that crop up […]
There’s a Pup About the House
What does it mean? When you have…. shoes piled high on the shoe rack, keeping as many up off the floor as possible… the bottom rungs of the drying rack, empty, no clothes hung there to dry, and pieces of string and material strung across the floor… the doors to the office and bathroom tightly […]
Rugs and Stuff {Hello Monday}
New week. New photos and happenings from life last week. Even though many of the things we do are the same everyday-ordinary-livinglife-kind-of-things. So Hello Monday! Hello to some things we did! We made donuts. We made bread. We made half of a recipe at the beginning of the week and made a whole recipe at […]
Cheddar Chowder
We’ve had soup several times in the last month. Cold weather means soup. I’m pretty prone to think that a simmering pot of soup, on a cold winter day, is very hard to beat. I made Cheddar Chowder last week and snapped a few photos as I prepared it for lunch. We eat cheddar chowder […]
A Fountain
I have times when I’m quiet and I have times when I talk a lot. It depends on my mood. It depends on if I’m in a large group or with a small group of close friends. Sometimes I feel like talking, sometimes I don’t. There are times I wish I had words or the […]
