My list of “hope to do this weekend” things went fairly well. How about yours? There was one hiccup – that fun fall festival. Oh, we went. And the weather was absolutely perfect for a day outdoors. I was hungry so “fair food” (that I usually do not find appealing)…

After all my references to losing some weight and feeling so good about it….I have a cookie recipe to share:) I do love my cookies but I really don’t eat that many – no more than two – but I love to bake so when I find delicious sounding new…

So wanting to do something “ordinary” for Hubbie yesterday – just to say I love you – I made a blueberry-raspberry crisp that I recently saw in Family Circle magazine….which was quite yummy, or so I have determined since the dish is more than half empty. I know it sure…

Thanks so much to everyone for all the birthday wishes for my boy!! I think he had a good day and was really enjoying 20 yesterday!! I love sharing some of my favorite pictures….boy, if I could only figure out how to upload all the old family movies – HA!!…

I love all the comments…especially the reminiscing ones…that posting “old” pictures elicit!! I especially love it when others share a story or a memory from an event that we were both at…yet, I had no idea something they remember had ever even happened – such fun! I had planned to…

I mentioned yesterday a recipe that was a winner at our house. It was Chicken-Corn Pizza. I am not a huge pizza fan – can take it or leave it – but I LOVE chicken and I also am a new fan of goat cheese. (Don’t stop reading yet…) If…

One of best things about blogging is discovering so many fun and beautiful blogs (so many creative ladies out there!)….reading encouraging posts, seeing how similar life is even when individual lives can be so different….and getting new recipes:) My friend, Donna has been sharing pumpkin recipes this week. Did I…

When life gets stressful..think food! That always seems to be my motto (some say working out really helps but, no, I tend toward baking..and eating! That could be part of the problem) Anyways, with fall in the air I’d thought I share a few apple recipes I am really wanting…

I had a group of friends at the house last night for a jewelry party. I don’t usually “do” those in-home sales parties – not that I have anything against them…I just don’t have alot of success with them (something like yard sales!) But last night was a lot of…

The weatherman tells us that this exceptionally warm weather is about to leave and the more fall-like temps are on their way. Hopefully, this will help inspire me more for fall. Yes, the pumpkin lattes at Starbucks are helping but the weather, I think, is confusing me!?! So many are…
