Memoir Monday {No. 95}
Another week! I found these bamboo clothespins at World Market. I’m excited to give them a try. Most likely not until next spring, though we do keep having really, really pretty days. We made cornmeal rolls in the shape of acorns and leaves. They turned a little wonky when they raised, but were fun just […]
Happy November
Happy November! Ours started off with sunshine and just the most beautiful weather! I showed these knitted leaves in my Yarn Along post last week. I restyled the coffee table and tucked them in. Then I picked up my camera and took beauty shots. I’ve decided that fall decor is fun because the fall […]
Baby Shower Pictures
One of my long-time friends had her first baby the end of August. A boy! A couple other friends helped me and we held a baby shower for her in my basement, in September. My pictures aren’t all that great. I was too busy to stop and take good photos like I really wanted […]
In Our Wardrobe {No.9}
I said last week that this vest was a favorite versatile layering item of mine! Here I am in it again! I like things I can mix and match. I really do like it. I have a comfy 3/4 tee under it from Christopher & Banks. This skirt came from Dress barn several years ago […]
Let’s Prowl the Porch
Let’s take a little prowl around my porch. The look of September and October has grasped it! Lovely gourds and pumpkins, and flowers that have a wild, end-of-summer beauty. Though winter is the only season I’m glad to see leave and I’m usually grasping the coattails of whichever one is on the way out, […]
Yarn Along {Doctor Dan}
Morty has something to show you. It’s leaves!!! I’m so excited about them. I saw them on a couple of bloggers’ feeds on Instagram and I was intrigued. They are so cute and I thought they looked fun to try. The pattern was on Ravelry. If you’re interested pop over there and search veined leaf […]
Just a Good Book For Mamas {Hoodwinked}
Hoodwinked. What does the word, or in this case, Book Title, conjure up in your mind? A simple definition for hoodwink is to deceive or trick. A few synonyms that caught my attention are bamboozle, beguile, bluff, fake out, snooker and suck in. Read them again. Bamboozle, beguile, bluff, fake out, snooker and suck in. […]

Wheat Drilling 2015
When the sky is clear and blue and big and bright…. When the soil is worked and mellow and smooth and beautiful… When the days are shortening and the temps swing between warm and cool and leave you guessing at what they’re going to do…. When there is just a fall feel and a fall […]
When Brilliant Beautiful Bursts Forth Over Brokenness
AND…gorgeous sunrise! God is the best artist. I think He loves beauty and creating and art. Every day He paints new sunrises, new sunsets. Every day He heals broken people. Every day He changes lives. Every day He brings beauty from ashes. He never tires of it. There is so much hurt and broken […]
In Our Wardrobe {No. 8}
Wardrobe time, once again! We had some cooler days back earlier in the year. Back when I would have still labeled it summer. This was an outfit I wore on one of these days. It will work well for fall, too. The shirt is lightweight and for cooler days, I will wear a t-shirt or […]

Yarn Along {Nurse Nancy}
Nurse Nancy. Another Little Golden love! I didn’t have this book when I was a kid. It was one I became acquainted with when I was the mama and my kiddos were the, well, little kiddos! I love it all the same! It catches the imagination and pretend play of childhood! And it isn’t Eloise […]
