I almost forgot to do a Sunday Fashion…My blog was giving me fits, I couldn’t comment, nor could you but hopefully it is fixed. Also the Captain delivered a new airplane to Pakistan which had me a little concerned because of the unrest over there. I put him in God’s care 🙏🏻 and praise God…
Good Morning my friends…It is very hot here in Florida and I started a post using the above title…”Summertime, and the living is easy” and I got to thinking…which can be a dangerous thing…LOL! I thought I had used that very same title a few years back and sure enough, 7 years ago I…
Have you ever wondered about my many confessions I make periodically? When I started this blog about 14 years ago, it was mostly to leave recipes for my kids, plus a record of what was happening in my life because we had moved so far away from Kansas to Florida. I am sure I get…
Friends, I have a confession to make. I not only love scarves, I have way too many of them. I only came to this realization recently. My sweet friend Susie and I have been trying to pare down our closets. We decided if we worked on these areas a little at a time we would…

Friends I would be remiss if I did not include a table styled for the Belmont Stakes Horse Race, since I have shown you the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes…now it is time for the final race of the Triple Crown. You can click on those links if you missed those table settings and…
Picture this…Sicily 1922..Somewhere, the echoes of a tenor singing “Ole Sole Mio” carries down the narrow, winding brick-laden streets of Southern Italy. Wafting through the air is the pungent smell of tomatoes and spices gently bubbling in an aged pot on the back of a wood stove nestled in the kitchen of a crumbling limestone…
As those of you know who follow me regularly, I host a Ladies Bible Study group in my home every Friday. And I like to change it up a bit every now and then and today was one of those days. In addition to our Bible Study, we had a Tea Party. We had such…
