Spring...Babies and Bring my own?

Good morning, Friends!

Hope you all are doing great...or at least are staying well and smiling.  

This month is nearing its end!  The year is really flying by.  We've had our usual amount of doctor visits... eating out and visits from the grands.  We've not done anything really exciting... Larry did drive me to my favorite quilt shop.  Then I started another quilt project.

Kept greatgran Lottie on Saturday.  Her mom Samantha and her mom, Crystal, (our daughter), went to Sam's salon and colored Crystal's hair.  They took Sloane with them and I kept little Lottie.

As you can see...Gamma was all into teaching her what good television is all about!  lol

Our Miss Sloane

Hey!!  Remember the seed company I told you about?  Well, I received my packet the other day!  SO quick!  Hopefully, they will grow in this area.  

We have a yard man who gave us a quote for laying two long beds in the front of the house. $1294.00 for laying out and planting the beds.  I texted him back telling him we like the price and to go ahead with the project.  Can't wait to see how it turns out!

Truth!!

Larry had spaghetti and meatballs... 

I made eggs, bacon and toast...

Our after-church lunch...I ordered a fried chicken sandwich with fried okra...so good!

Can you believe this?  Two Cokes...$8 Dollars??  And some sour cream (picture an American quarter + a dime!)  I'm not kidding.  So now... IF I know ahead of time that we're going to a Taco Tuesday, I'll bring my own sour cream in a small snap container... And??  I love sour cream but am unwilling to pay $2 dollars for a scant amount!  8 ounces here in town cost $1.24...!!!  So... I'll bring my own!  And... $8 dollars for 2 cokes???  Water with lemon wedges from now on!  We're not cheapskates butttt...that's not going to fly.

I made an egg breakfast sandwich...with bacon.

You have to keep up your energy while thinking of intelligent and witty things to say while writing your blog! lol

Well, I suppose that's about it for this time...We are really sort of boring lately...but I think "no news is good news".  Larry is still waiting on his new CnC machine to arrive...the company keeps pushing the arrival time ahead.

So... stay well and warm or cool wherever you are!

Until next time....

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...
