Happy Thanksgiving to all my readers and their families…… I will make this post brief, as I know this is indeed a busy day of cooking and being with family! I would like to share this bit of wisdom (by Melody Beattie) with you on this Thanksgiving Day… “Gratitude unlocks the fullness of…
The Second Time Around… In keeping with the theme of small intimate groups…I invited a few more Florida ladies to a Celebration of Winter!, based on a Frozen Theme Supper. Either I am not too original or I am terribly smart. 🙂
Celebration of Winter! Yes, believe it or not….lots of people celebrate Winter. Those who live in the Northlands of this world, obviously celebrate Winter… or they wouldn’t choose to live in the many, many deep freeze parts of the country! I spoke the other day with a gentleman who lived in North Dakota…and I…
Menu for Memorial Day Picnic! Yesterday in my Post, I said I would provide the recipes for our Memorial Day Picnic! I just love to set a pretty table…..I am seeing stars everywhere….even the flatware utensils have stars. Sigh! 🙂
Setting a Place at the Table! Yesterday I showed you a few of my tablescapes and I thought you might be interested in setting a place at the table or … a few ways for presenting a pretty table. First a disclaimer…I am not an expert in table setting….or in tablescapes for that matter…I…
Folks who know me, know that I love tablescapes! I get such joy out of setting a pretty table. Do I set a special table every day? No, not really! Mostly for special occasions… However, most of the time, I do try to make the everyday table attractive. That is not to say I haven’t…

Valentine’s Day, Fudge and Cake….are synonymous aren’t they? A Valentine Fudge Bundt Cake dessert, teamed with Valentine’s Day and what more do you need? Yummy!!! The above picture was taken several years ago on a Valentine’s Day. Sorry, I don’t remember which Valentine’s Day, but it had to be early on! I wish my camera…
Cupid’s Arrow of course is associated with Valentine’s Day! It could be argued that it is a commercial Holiday developed by businesses for business. I don’t feel that way! As an elementary student, I always looked forward to taking a shoe box to school and using red and pink construction paper to make the most…
Happy New Year…to all our wonderful friends all over the world!! As we welcome in 2014…Me and My Captain, wish a wonderful, prosperous New Year to all our friends, family and new Blogger Buddies. We cherish and love you all. This is the time of year when we make resolutions…I read the other day…
Hey Ya’ll…It is 2023 and I have had a few friends tell me this link wasn’t working when they tried to go to it from my New Years Post yesterday. I believe the link is working, but thought I would repost this just in case you could not link to it. I will also give…
I promised I would print my Thanksgiving Menu and since we celebrated Thanksgiving early, I can honestly say our guests were pleased. The feedback has been great! I roasted a Turkey Breast for the Turkey and Cornbread Dressing casserole….. and our main entree was of course Turkey…. and we deep fried a 14 pound bird…
