Cooking an Autumn Jubilee Sunday Brunch
Autumn on a cool Sunday brings an opportunity to make a wonderful dish for Sunday Brunch. Whether it is only for your family, or as a dish to celebrate a birthday or holiday, this dish is hearty and filling. Full of flavor, My Sweet Babboo has declared this one a keeper. So, today we make …
Finishing Up and Getting Ready
Finishing up the Quilt of Valor this week was easy, as my machine behaved itself. Amazingly, I ran out of bobbin thread at the end of a pass each time, so no tying off in the middle of the quilt. That doesn't happen often! I used white Glide thread on top, and white Bottom Line …
Gardening and Cooking
I am happy it is September, and I know fall is coming because my toad lily is preparing to bloom. These buds are growing larger, and cascade down the leaf fronds. I have three pots of toad lilies in a three tiered stand. There are going to be a lot of blooms this year. The …
Visiting an Apple Orchard and Quilting
It's been a busy week, beginning last weekend with the Apple Festival. I went to an orchard on Saturday, hoping to get some more great shots for the Agriculture category for the fair. I did get a couple that might work for next year's competition. These are just a few of the varieties of apples …

With some boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the freezer, it seemed a good time to pair them together for another meal. The boneless and skinless breast …

Sunday Chat – Oliver, a new recipe, and a tablescape
Oliver has been getting a bit bolder, coming up to sit on the front mat that says Wipe Your Paws to look into the sliding glass door. Alms for a hungry squirrel? Please, nice lady, is there perhaps a peanut butter sandwich nearby? Now, I ask you, could you resist this face? Well, neither could …

A bit of this and that
I did manage to get a bit of sewing time this week to make a couple of sunglasses cases. My Sweet Babboo had taken me shopping for some extra pairs of sunglasses to keep in the cars. He doesn't want to have to turn around every time I forget the ones I usually have with …
