TGIF

May 16, 2025

These last few days have been busy and time has flown by. I can hardly believe it's Friday . . seems like yesterday was Monday. Today we have a G.E. rep coming by to look at our fridge. Good timing . . the freezer has completely stopped working and the fridge is hanging at a balmy 50 degrees. I think the freezer is at about 65. If we don't get some satisfaction from G.E., we're going to have to ...

The Garden

May 12, 2025

Vegetable gardens aren't for everyone - I understand that. Often when I pass a yard that's manicured and neat, doesn't have hoses and weird tubs sitting around everywhere, I think that yard is beautiful and I laugh thinking about what they would think if they saw our yard. This was our back yard four years ago. This is what I see when I walk out the back door today. We've put up a ...

Sitting and Waiting

May 11, 2025

It is no secret that I always have to be busy and, when sitting and waiting, I always have to have something to do. It will be away from home and I don't know how good the lighting will be so cross stitching was out. I thought about knitting but decided this will be a good time to get some pieces laced and ready to frame. For a few hours this afternoon, I was matching up stitched pieces with ...

Fresh Milled Flour Dutch Baby

May 9, 2025

It was back around 2007 when I first started milling our flour. For a while, I knew it was more healthy and better for us but I loved white bread and during the years, there would be times when I was making 100% fresh milled flour bread for a few weeks, but then I'd go back to white bread. I'm happy to say that we don't even have storebought flour in the house any more. Everything I make is with ...

Stitch Maynia Day 8

May 8, 2025

Another day of stitching on the memorial piece for my dad. It's starting to come together and I think my plan (very loose plan!) is coming together and may work with a few changes being made as needed. A reader had asked about the order in which I plan to stitch the siblings' names. Since my dad's name is in the center and pretty much the focus of this piece, his name is there (Billy ...

The Hail Storm

May 8, 2025

Having grown up and spent about half of my adult life in southwest Louisiana, I understand that a hail storm is serious (ask my tomato plants!) and causes tremendous damages but compared to a hurricane or tornado, I'll take a hail storm and will not complain. My biggest complaint about the hail storm last week is the roofers! There are coming out of every nook and cranny wanting to examine our ...
