Cheese Soup!


Hi!!! It's me again! I know I am so bad at posting this year but I am going to try to do better!
A while ago I said I was trying to use all of my cookbooks and magazines at least once! Well, here is a recipe from the very first issue of Hometown Cooking, October 1999! I loved that magazine! It was put out by Better Homes and Gardens! Anyway, this was our supper last night! I just wish I had made the rolls! This is called Cheesy Vegetable Soup! It has potatoes, carrots, onions, and broccoli in it! It was so yummy and comforting! It made a great late winter evening meal!

Our trees are budding and flowers are popping up through the ground! It will soon be time to start the garden! I can't wait! Last year we didn't get to plant the garden since Gayle wasn't well and John got hurt. We are looking sooo forward to homemade salsa!!!

I am so excited that it is March Madness! I can't wait to print the brackets and pick my teams!
Lilli and I are going to see who can pick the most winners! There is never anything scientific to our picking method! We may like the name or the school colors or the state they come from!
You never know it just maybe the best way to fill out the brackets! LOL!

I have been making things! YAY!! I can't wait to post them! I have also been trying to get organized! I say the time goes so fast we will be thinking about Christmas again! With that said I best get back to my day! We lost an hour yesterday so that makes the day go even faster!
I am definitely not for changing the time especially for the reason the governor gave to us.....so the golfers have more daylight time on the course! I guess it would be great if I played, huh?!!!

Til next time!

Wherever you are whatever you are doing I hope you have a wonderfully happy day!

Time Flys!!!

The days seem to just fly by for now! I can't really say where all of my time goes. I can say it is not in my sewing room, though! We seem to want to be outside all of the time now that it is wonderfully Springy out! We have the garden to tend the patio to get ready for those summer nights so we can put a log on the fire and just sit and watch the world go by and eat s'mores of course!!! I can't wait for that! John is on vacation next week! No plans to go anywhere! Just to stay put and enjoy home! Don't you love to do that? Have everything caught up and just do nothing but what you want to do! At least for an hour!!!!

I have not one creative picture to show you, just some outside shots that Lilli took!

I love this shot taken on an early spring night!

This is our neighbor lady's magnolia tree! Isn't it gorgeous?!

That's all I have for today!

Wherever you are whatever you are doing I hope you have a wonderfully happy day!

We know it is really Spring around here when........


I hang my window quilt that I made years ago! I can't even remember when it was!
I love it, though! We are friends with the window people here in town and they gave me some
really old windows that they were gonna trash! This is the only one I have done, but I would love to do an angel for Gayle drawn by Lilli! I think Lilli would love one with a cat! We'll see!
I hope you all have a great weekend!!!
Take care!

Wherever you are whatever you are doing I hope you have a wonderfully happy day!
