Linking up with Ginny and Frontier Dreams. {affiliate links included} I mentioned last week I had the idea to make several solid dishcloths. My stack is started. I finished the yellow and moved onto a coral-ly pink, completed it ~yay!~ and pulled out a golden yellow. I had an orange-striped shirt on one day and […]

Organizing Photos In Three-Ring Binders
I love pictures. If you’ve dropped by here even just a few times, you may have figured that out. I like taking them, I like having them, I like the memories they create. I also like and appreciate all the pictures friends and family have given us over the years. Many years ago, I was […]
Yarn Along {Purple Dishcloth and Eleanor Estes}
It’s Yarn Along ~ Linking up with Ginny and Frontier Dreams and iknead2knit. I started this purple dishcloth while we were gone to Colorado for a quick, few days. Purple is one of my favorite colors. It’s so rich. This dishcloth is finished except for tucking in the tails. I need to grab my crochet needle […]
Because It’s Summer
The laundry piles high. Clean. Just waiting to get folded. But I have this beautiful laundry basket my Mother gave to me for Christmas. One to me and one for my sister. It makes the laundry look better and rather homey as it waits. The sun beats warm on the house peeking in the windows. […]
Cupcake Liner Flowers
I’ve had a stack of white paper cupcake liners for a long time that I’ve eyed and thought, “I should really do something with these, but what?” I have a couple of recipes I like to keep foil cupcake liners around for, because the cupcakes stick to the paper liners in an annoying way. The foil […]

How ’bout some favorite finds again? It’s been a bit since No. 4. ONE This bright and happy silicone cup holder!! I got these at a little shop in our local town and have loved them. I have three others and they are all different shapes and designs. I’d only taken a picture of […]
Yarn Along ~ Dishcloth and Dear Mr. Knightley
Every Wednesday, over at Small Things, Ginny hosts a Yarn Along link-up. I was intrigued when I recently discovered it and I knew it would be fun to link up. I only knit dishcloths, so I don’t have a huge variety of knitting projects. And my knitting is come and go. I’ll have it out […]
Spring/Summer Style
A good while back, clear back in the end of 2013, I shared a Style for the Season post. Several ladies went together and posted Winter/Christmas outfits. I enjoyed the post and have thought off and on, I’d do it again. But haven’t. 🙂 Recently, I’ve been putting some outfits together that I like, but […]

And a few quotes about home…. Be it ever so humble, There’s no place like home!!!!! There is nothing like staying at home […]
Memoir Monday {No. 73} and the June Flexi 2015
Ah! These beautiful Kansas landscapes. I just like them. The clouds were so gorgeous on this Tuesday, day, as I ventured out for a walk. Farmy, machinery, type stuff happening at the farm. Time to get Mr. Combine out and start maintenancing and prepping for upcoming wheat harvest. That means a musical chairs of machinery must […]
Memoir Monday {No.69}
This is my $2 garage sale candle! I’m still happy, happy with this find. Beauty has been much on my mind and what a gift it is and how there is a lot of ugly in this world and sin marred it so, and each bit of beauty is something to be so thankful for. […]
A Lollipop Bouquet
My brother had a birthday coming up and I knew what I wanted to make and gift him with for his birthday. I’d pinned the idea for a Lollipop Bouquet to my Pinterest Gift-Giving Ideas Board. Over at A Mom’s Life her daughter had made one for her brother’s birthday and I thought it […]
Memoir Monday {No. 68}
Did you have a good week last week? I certainly hope so. I noticed these little pans in my cupboard a few weeks ago. They’d been tucked away and I’d forgotten them. We had three bananas that were getting too dark and overripe, so I flipped through my cookbooks and found my Banana Bread recipe […]
Three Things {Favorite Finds No. 4} Pampered Chef Cooling Rack, Glass Bottles, Insulated 31 Water Bottle Thing-a-ma-jig,
Drumroll! Da-da-da-dum! I’ve been wanting to post more of my favorites. There are so many days that I think, “I’m going to blog.” and then I get busy with with something else that HAS to be done or I get sidetracked with another project or interruptions or unexpected things come up or I get a […]
Birthdays 2015
Birthday celebrations and birthday memories! No all-out shin-digs or parties, but special lunches and celebrating that our kiddos were born! I love birthday parties and birthday bashes, but I’m not always up to the effort of anything too big. Even if I don’t always throw the parties that I’d like to in my mind, we […]
Three Things {Favorite Finds No. 3} Ottoman, Whisk, Leggings
My No. 1 favorite find for this post is this red, polka-dotty ottoman that was welcomed to our basement. I’m loving it. Stools, ottomans, footrests…they’re just great to have to pair with couches and chairs, plus they can make a nice perch now and then and add a fun bit of decor to a room. […]
