Oh dear, I had to renew my driver’s license this morning. I should have done it last week on my birthday (or sooner), but I forgot.
Don’t tell anyone I am a year older.
Anyway, this morning after getting my license — on which the photo is just stunning, I might add — I stopped […]

Our Mountain Lodge
March 30th, 2008 · 2 Comments
Recently I said to husband, “Want to meet me at our mountain lodge?” He knew exactly what I was talking about. “Yes” was his answer.
Our mountain lodge is just a few steps from the kitchen. We have never had the money to really travel, though we have worked in a few nice family vacations […]

Bread Machine Raisin Bread
March 29th, 2008 · No Comments
Has anyone noticed the price of bread going up? I work in a bakery, so it’s really been evident to me while at work, but it’s most alarming when I’m trying to shop for my own groceries. We are feeding six here, and I know some are feeding even more. A lot more!
I pulled out my […]

Shepherd’s Purse
March 28th, 2008 · 4 Comments
I wanted to share with you a little plant (weed) that I love. I love it probably because it’s one my mother showed me when I was a little girl. She would find it outside and show me how I could take off a little fruit (the heart-shaped part) and eat it and get a great […]

Garden Blues
March 27th, 2008 · No Comments
I don’t have the blues. My garden does.
It seems there are so many blue blooms in the garden this time of year. Blues and purples in the form of hyacinth, creeping speedwell, violets, tulips, phlox, and more. The blue will give way to other colors, and actually that’s already beginning.
The hellebores have been especially pretty this year. I […]

A Few More Treasures
March 27th, 2008 · No Comments
I just wanted to share a few more little treasures that I found at the thrift store this week.
A very pretty red rug, a lovely heavy jar with a screw-on lid — perfect for some of the cosmetic concoctions I’m planning to make with my herbs this summer, and a sweet little pair of leather […]

A “New” Old Wardrobe
March 26th, 2008 · 3 Comments
Yesterday on the way home from dropping the children off at mom’s house, I had a strong feeling something good is at the Goodwill you don’t often visit, but you’re going close by today so stop!
Ever get a feeling like that?
I was so glad that I stopped in. The store was nearly void […]

Grandma’s and Grandpa’s for Spring Break
March 25th, 2008 · 9 Comments
Nestled in the woods is a beautiful cedar log cabin. It belongs to Grandma and Grandpa. It’s the best place in the world, and that is where my children are for a few days. Imagine the empty nest syndrome I am facing this week!
In contrary fashion to where we live, which is right in town, with […]

On Being Circumspect
March 24th, 2008 · 4 Comments
I’ve had it on my mind lately, just how do I appear to others? Little things have shown me through the years that indeed others do watch my life, just as I watch the lives of others, and my actions and words give impressions to people. Though others may not “judge” me, I am sure […]
