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 […]
Ups and Downs {Hello Monday}
It’s Hello Monday time! Hello to a pickup that has a transmission overheating. Hello to a crashing school laptop. Hello to hot dogs roasted in the stove. Hello to staying home with all the snow outside. And hello to getting out to go to an appointment for a massage and to clean the doctors’ office. […]
Herbed Oatmeal Pan Bread
I typed up a quick post about the March flexi-of-the-month last night and scheduled it to post early this morning. I wanted to share a recipe today, so I’m sitting down to get it posted. Herbed Oatmeal Pan Bread. The name alone makes it sound yummy. A friend and neighbor shared this recipe with me […]
Lilla Rose March Flexi of the Month
The flexi clip for the month of March has arrived! If you like green or emerald, then you will be all about this clip. I would probably place the color green under several other colors when listing my favorites, but I think this flexi is very eye-catching. Last month the flexi of the month […]
Moments That Matter
Do you ever have those {selfish} moments when the people in your life just get on your nerves? Of course you do, or you wouldn’t be real. Now that we have that clarified, we can move on. When my daughter was less than a year old, I was at a gathering of a few young […]
So, This Afternoon I Made Cinnamon Pull-Apart Bread
I like to bake. Unfortunately sometimes. Maybe I would be skinny if I didn’t. Oh well, isn’t there a saying, “Never trust a skinny cook?” 🙂 Cold weather and snow somehow just says baking weather, don’t you think? I do. I flipped through recipes this morning, that I’ve printed out from here and there on […]
A Winter Week
Hello Monday and Hello Winter! Some bits and pieces of our week last week…….. We finished up the siding! We had a visit from this darling! We took pictures of some Lilla Rose clips. We had winter show up with full force. My brother started working for the county in December, so he got to […]
Crockpot Party Mix
Since we had wind and snow the last couple of days and we were blanketed in with fifteen inches of snow, I made some snacks yesterday. And I enjoyed a relaxed, cozy day looking out the window at the snow and being very thankful I could stay inside my warm house. And I was thankful […]
Drawing Lines in the Sand
Tolerance. Lines. Budgets. Beliefs. Limits. I have some throw pillows that are very dear to my heart. They make me happy. They brighten up my living spaces. They are fun to have. (Never mind that the ones on my bed have to be moved every evening.) (Still like them.) I have spent more money on […]

The Siding Venture Begins
The new siding started going on the house on Monday! Then, it promptly snowed on Tuesday. Won’t complain about the moisture AT ALL, though! Besides we ended up having to start the process for putting our next beef in the freezer anyway on Tuesday morning. Well, my husband did. The main thing I contributed was […]
What We Did {Hello Monday}
Hello Monday! Let’s see some highlights from what we did last week. Come along……. We received a birthday/valentine box from Grandpa and Grandma! Three cheers! I love boxes in the mail. We cuddled in bed and watched “I’m Farming and I Grow It.” We got braces! Oh my. A new adventure. Her dad and I […]
