Sloane Reasoning with Mommy...Spring?

 Good morning, Friends!

The weather here has been so warm lately!  I was looking around the back yard and have found so many things starting to grow!  I worry about another freeze rolling through before Spring officially springs.

I haven't much news to share...I've been busy getting a quilt top finished for friend, Laura.  It's now finished.

My Wandering Jew is popping back up!  Love the color... 

I'm trying to envision exactly how to create one of these...Have you ever done something like this for your garden?

Mother-in law tongue is taking off!  I do very little to keep it going...lol

My green thumb is actually a little gray...

A new project...this time, for me!  A quilt.  Haven't decided on a block pattern yet.

So precious... Sloane has the answer to life making sure Mommy is listening! 

"Take a deep Breaff!"

Lolol

Pork ribs and corn...

A Cherry 4-Ingredient Cobbler... Really good and easy!

Frito Pie...

Well, that's about it for me this week.  Headed out to go touch some grass...lol...I just took the last sip of my cold coffee and got a mouthful of grounds...sigh...

Hope you all are well and safe. 

So, until next time...  

Seeds...Where's February??

Good morning, Friends...

March is here...and I'm left wondering what happened to February?  It just whizzed by...

I started planting some flower seeds...hope they come up!  It's already going to be 89F (31.6C) here today!!! 

Sweeties Samantha with our little Lottie...

You know I always post a photo of our Sloaneygirl...

We ate a The Cracker Barrel after church when waiting on Larry to pay...I spied these sparkly shoes!  The photo doesn't do them justice!

Sunday School got a little rambunctious...lol

Can't remember why... 

I was asked to make a lunch for a fellow Sunday Schooler because she'd had hip surgery.  Larry made the stock and I made the rest.  A joint endeavor!  The patient and her husband said they loved it...perfectly seasoned.  It was good!

Then we went to a place Larry found called, Jorges.  Mexican food...and Sooo darn good!!  We will return!

My asparagus is beginning to put off stems!

Air fryer chicken and sweet beans!

Larry made sausage and veggies on a cookie sheet!  Really good!

Love Mr. Bean!

Well, I suppose that's about it for me on this blog today...I got some sewing things accomplished but it's all on my sewing blog along with a tip that saves you eyes when having to rethread your needle!

Hope you all have a beautiful and safe week!  And with everything going on in Iran... stay aware of your surroundings!

Until next time...

February....Are You Like Me?

Good morning, Friends... Well, it's truly well into mid-February!  This is when I need to prune my roses...We've been having days of temps into the 70/80'sF... nights, 50/60'sF !  Crazy weather.  Now, I just need to get out there and Do It!

These two are super close...in doing everything! lol

Sloane and Lottie...our little loves.

Larry bought me the sewing chair I've been wanting!  It truly is nice...under seat storage...and is super quiet!  Rolls like a dream with lumbar support.

Are you like me?  I have saved things that might not make much sense to others...like the above...and yes, there were many Conservatives, like Larry and myself...and not voting for him..., who had hoped Obama would bring the nation together...so I kept the paper announcing his win.  Likewise with Trump's 2016 win.   

Do you save things like this or am I alone...

And in my recent purging, should I throw them out?

Do libraries take things like this?

Air fried pork boneless ribs, potatoes and a salad in a separate bowl...somewhere...Okay!  I saw that smirk! lol 

Valentine's Day shrimp lunch...

My Fish and chips after church last Sunday.

Larry's big bowl of gumbo...lol...but it tasted just like what we make here at home!

Chicken thighs and sweet potato.

I made pancakes one morning...

We had steak fingers on the day we took our taxes to the CPA's... Oh... Got a call saying the return was ready...the next day!  We love our new CPA!

And a nice locarb lunch for a change...lol

Well, I suppose that's about it for me this week.  I have an eye doctor appointment this morning, so I best get busy.  Hope you all enjoy your weekend...stay warm or cool wherever you may be and stay safe! 

Oh...Squirrel!  And can you believe they haven't found out who kidnapped Nancy Guthrie?  I think that investigation was bungled to begin with.  Although...that pesky neighbor who keeps showing up has my vote!  He keeps trying to tell the police "He had a premonition" that the son did it...smh...and he shows up every darn day!  How creepy is that?

Okay...lol...I'm done.

Showers...Rescues

Good morning Friends...

Well, I think Larry and I are going to make it... My cough is almost gone...as is Larry's.  I've started on a quilt top for Laura (my sister's ex-husband's wife) because I was asked.  She helped me with Ruth Ann when she had colon cancer several years back.  This is not going to be my favorite project but...oh well...such is life.

Our Granddaughter, Samantha, threw her best friend a baby shower this last Saturday.  This is Cortny.  See the quilt I made?  It was for her... 

See the rocking horse?  Larry made it.    Turned out really cute.  Samamtha loved it.

I kept the girls again last week when it was icy.  The school closed.  I turned on Sylvester and Tweety Bird...They both were enthralled! Lolol

As a child, I loved those two!   Much better cartoons then, then now...at least I think so.

I made some French Toast...It was hot and yummy!

Another idea for breakfast was eggs, Italian sesame toast...hash browns and bacon.  

 

Chicken and stuffing...with a salad.

When Samantha came to pick up the girls, the driveway was icy in patches.  Sloane ran out of the house and when she turned the corner, running after her mom, she slipped on a patch of ice.  She was holding her Barbie.  Down she went...started to cry...confusion ensued.  Poor Barbie was quickly forgotten.  Sunday, Larry and I were returning from church when I spied said Barbie laying in a planter.  She was not happy to have been forgotten...and looked quite cold in her current circumstance.  I brought her in, dressed her and she now awaits the return of her mommy (Sloane).

Crisis averted.

I suppose that's all the news I have to report, for now.

I hope you all are doing well...and are safe from all the storms hitting the USA.  Remember, as in the case of Barbie...don't run on the ice!

Until next time...
