Warmer...Buns, Banks and Rant.



 

There will be a short rant later...I also don't usually post things political on my blog but when things are continuously being shoved in my face... I can become a little "witchy" about it.  So...if you'd rather move along, I'll understand...and enjoy the rest of your day.




I think today's post is about toys! lol
I ordered this mug warmer from Amazon.  It's called, Dimux Coffee Mug Warmer.  Auto switch off...you can even warm your candles on it!  Sends out the fragrance without burning the wick!
Works great...and doesn't burn the coffee.





Oh...then I made Cinnamon Buns...and yes I cheated a bit...these are "doctored" buns from Grands.  I added cinnamon sugar, butter and cream to them.  Lordy..so good!




You ever "feel" our plants staring at you? Lolol
Think I'll go water mine...lol




We made it out to our friends cafe...pure country and really good down-home fare...Steak finger basket...




This is a piggy bank for Sloane...Her Lolli (our daughter, Crystal) asked Gampa if he could make her one...You put money in it and continue to do so until they graduate high school...then, they can break into it and use the funds.  He built it Big...and you have to use a hammer to get into it.  I doubt Larry and I will still be around to see it but hopefully, we'll watch from on high...? lol




My sister Ruth Ann...decided she needed puppies to raise and breed to sell... sigh...They are adorable, and she takes care of her dogs but...her health is iffy, at best.  If I try to talk to her about adding more stress to her daily life...I get told to shut up and mind my business.  Oh well...so be it.




This was staged but it would make the Border Patrol's lives so much easier! lol 
Trust me...here in Central Texas, that border isn't that far away.  Illegals are still pouring in...Don't listen to the Media...Biden signed a garbage bill the other day...it does nothing to protect us All...He just wants his voters to think he's doing something so they'll continue to give him their vote...13 Million as of today…Ask us voters who live next to the border what we think about how he's doing...lolol





Larry finally made us this "Day of the Week" clock!  We love it!  We used to laugh when older folks said they couldn't figure out what day it was...No More!  We certainly get it...


Okay...warning...rant time...



Okay...I was watching videos on YouTube yesterday...a cooking video that wasn't really that interesting so my eyes wandered over the page... See the colorful eyes?  See what it says when you run your mouse over it?  "Meet the Drag Community"????
I searched high and low for a way to get it off the page but it wouldn't let me...If you look on your link, it's there...
This crap sickens me...and if you like it...well, scroll on by...let's be clear...I don't give a ratsa$$ what you do in your life...dress up like a cat for all I care...but...Stop shoving it down my throat!  I don't want to have to see this stuff everywhere I look!  I keep my sex life private, as it should be...It's about 5% of the nation now...that are doing this...so called Influencers.  To me, it's just pure evil garbage.  I do Not want this around my babies and I'm proud to say it! Stand UP for how you feel...  Come on November 5th!!!  Vote this crap out...
Rant, now over...








How cute is this!  The envelope was a little worse for wear when it arrived but the card was safe.  Our post office is showing signs of the times...
Thanks to Ann ...I got another big smile today!  Thank you Miss Ann!!




We got to pick up our little Sloane from daycare...seems it was just in time before the rain storm hit on Tuesday...!  The kids were heading to Port Aransas, Texas on Wednesday, for a few days of rest.





This apparently, was a real thing, back in the day...Can you imagine?



Well...guess I'll go find something to do...








Got the urge to make and can some Cherry Jam.  This digital canner is a "set and go" canner.  I don't know how I've made it in life, without it!  It's by Presto.  I got it on Amazon.  It's a water bath and pressure canner!  Love it...
Taste wonderful!  I used three cans of tart cherries and the juice.  SO easy.
Well, guess I'll go find some more mischief to get into.
Hope you are enjoying your week and are safe and well, wherever you are.
So, until next time...
