For weeks I've been poking around in the sweet potato beds. They grow so fast, they can get too big very quickly. If they get too big, then they can get fibrous or stringy so I will boil them (gently boil them), then grate them and use them for casseroles or whatever I'm using them for. I love (love, love, love) sweet potato pie - any pie really - and Vince isn't crazy about it, which I cannot ...

Fully Finishes

Almost a Fully Finished Item!
Almost . . like so close . . waiting for glue to dry. This could be fully finished tonight. So, why didn't I wait until it was fully finished before blabbing about it? Because I am so darned excited. When was the last time I fully finished anything? I cannot remember! Today Vince and I were in town and I "needed" to stop by Hobby Lobby to get some floss. When I met up with Vince again in the ...
