More Than A Song

I pulled some new recipes out to try but then got to looking in my freezer and decided that there were things I needed to work on getting used up soon! So nothing earth shattering this week, although I will use some meat for a new crockpot dish I think. Join in the fun and […]

I’m still trying to catch up from when I was out of town…..maybe if you all just didn’t post for a day or 2, I might could get all caught up, Kthanksbye! Jen from a good cup of coffee passed this along to me recently; she’s too sweet! The sentiment behind this award: the thing […]

Apparently it doesn’t take much to entertain our family sometimes! While we were in Texas this past weekend we got to talking about the fact that Saturday was the equinox and someone mentioned that on those days of the year is when you can stand eggs on their end. Shanna teaches 3rd grade; she said […]

Our little Grayson turned 5 recently, his mom and dad planned a party for him this past Saturday. So hubby and I flew to Texas on Friday to spend the weekend visiting with the kids, and going to a party of course! I hadn’t seen the little ones since the first of June so I […]

I participated in this challenge last year and thoroughly enjoyed it, not only the reading but seeing all the different reading lists by the participants! If you aren’t familiar with it and want to check it out, stop by Katrina’s place and get all the info in this post. You can see all the other […]

Here’s what I think we’ll have this week….barring any unforeseen circumstances I suppose. The very organized Laura hosts this each week, so jump in and plan along if you’d like. Monday…..Parmesan baked salmon, sesame green beans Tuesday….Vegetarian Lasagna (using the crockpot for this one), salad Wednesday..church supper Thursday….Southwestern Ranch Chicken salad Friday….homemade pizza…..unless we go […]

Sewing machine! All the live long day….well it seemed like it at times but it really wasn’t I suppose. I didn’t actually sew much yesterday and I’m pushing it aside for the weekend. But I did snap some pictures of what I’ve done so far…..

I’ve been sewing for about the last two days, I’m not through but I think I’m going to have to quit before I Lose.My.Mind! When I sew I tend to get nothing else done, no housework at all, no computer, no reading and barely any meals. I wanted to get everything for Kathryn finished this […]

I’m basically dry today, can’t think what to do or write about! I’m not motivated to do much of anything although I have loads to do. So I’ll put up just one more video of the baby girl……ok well, maybe not the very last one ever. Who am I kidding, if they send me something […]

Today is the day……..the Monk and Neagle cd is out today! I was lucky enough to receive one back in the summer and I’ve really enjoyed my copy. This is your chance to run right out to your store and get one. Or if you like to order online, check out Monk & Neagle’s site […]

I’m still not feeling like I want to cook much and hope I can snap out of it soon! Thanks to Laura for hosting each week. Monday……Seasoned tilapia, veggie Tuesday…..Crustless bacon & cheese quiche, thanks Carrie! Wednesday..church supper (chicken chow mein) Thursday….Chicken quesadillas Friday……eat out I think weekend….dinner plans with family! I hope your Monday […]

We’ve been studying parables at church recently and last weekend while watching a movie we heard this quote by Malcolm Muggeridge: “Every happening, great and small, is a parable whereby God speaks to us, and the art of life is to get the message.â€? I’m not familiar with Muggeridge but both of us really liked […]

I finished reading a book recently that was by an author that’s new to me……Wish You Well by David Baldacci. I think the book isn’t new, it’s been out a while and I’m probably the last person around to have read it. I believe he normally writes thrillers or legal thrillers so I may not […]

Stacy bought something because I told her I was craving something sweet! These are SO good, I think I must have eaten about 22 of them last night although Stacy said there were only 20 in the box. We went to see our dad today and when we got back we realized that the cookies […]

Yesterday I had a sewing class, well maybe more of a software class, to learn about a new update I got for my machine. Then I spent a lot of time afterwards trying to practice using it so I can use the monograms and lettering more. I did learn a few new things…..one being that […]
