I wish for snow.

Where I live, it doesn't snow. But we have a window usually around the middle of December. When it does get cold enough to snow. Well, today is the day!
But ... I think...well I know.. we probably will not get snow.

Although, I will keep my eyes out the window today.

There was only one time in my life where I lived in a place where it would snow. I remember the day...when I saw my first snow fall. I remember thinking how quiet the snow fall was. I guess I was comparing it to rain...which can be loud. I was 17 and living in Idaho then. I only lived there for a few months...but the snow was wonderful.

Anyway, I wish for snow today. Please Lord let it snow.

Blessings to you...and a little snow too! LOL!

It looks alot like Christmas at my house!

Here is a really bad picture of our tree. I'm awful at taking these kinds pictures.
I'm great at the artsy kind. You know the ones that evoke a feeling when you see them.
But today...couldn't take a picture to save my life.
Even my Etsy items were sub-par today. I did list my new items. Just a few aprons and a tea towel that I had left from a booth I had at a Boutique.

Now if you really want to hear a treat. I invited Becky from "Sweet Cottage Dreams" to my boutique. To my surprise, she was able to come. I was excited!!!

So if you have a chance, please go visit her...and her Etsy shop.
She is a lovely person and so is her blog.

Merry Christmas to you all!
Remember, JESUS is the reason for this season!!!

Thanksgiving Fun!

Happy Thanksgiving!


My daughter asked if she could make the pumpkin pie ..."by herself"..this year.
Of course!...I said, not knowing for sure that she really meant.

The whole time she kept saying "Mom, you can leave now".

I then told her...I'm just here to assist you. You are making this pie...not me.

I need to make sure she got it right...so, she could feel proud of what she had done.
It's not every day that she asks to make a pie.

She did in fact, add all the ingredients "all by herself"
(ok, she needed help with the milk)

She mixed and poured the Pumpkin pie batter/filling in "all by herself".

I did however, put the pie in the oven. She's not quite tall enough to bend over the stove door to place the pie in the oven.

I only wish you could have seen and feel the happiness that little girl had after she poured the filling in the pie....LOL!!!

Oh, Please forgive the messy desk and counter. I haven't gotten that far on my "to do" list yet...LOL!!!!


Blessings to you and your family on this thanksgiving holiday!!!!
