Mother's Day

Mother’s Day

If my peonies are blooming, then it must be Mother’s Day! I had a fun day. Hope you did, too. I usually cut these peonies for a Mother’s Day centerpiece but this time we ate by the pool and we were surrounded by flowers so I didn’t need to. I celebrated these two blessings who […]

Number Eight

Number Eight

Yesterday I saw one of my friends who happens to read the blog and she inquired as to where her wreath was?  She asked, “Was I not home when you tried to deliver it?”  (Yeah… something like that.) So tonight I made wreath number eight.  Well, Angie….you weren’t home when I tried to deliver wreath […]

Easter Wreaths

Easter Wreaths

I love Easter decorations.  I love the pastel colors and bunnies and carrots, and I do love jelly beans and chocolate eggs.    To make this holiday even more special, we made some wreaths.  My mom, my friend Gina, and I made seven wreaths to adorn our doors. Each wreath was a little different although […]

Leprechaun Poop

Leprechaun Poop

“Happy St. Patrick’s Day!” says she who forgot to wear green today.  My eyes will have to count.  We have a fun tradition in our school (it’s probably in other schools, too) where a sneaky leprechaun visits the classroom while the students are at lunch or recess and causes havoc in the class.  Pranks include messing […]

Covering All the Bases

Covering All the Bases

I am covering all the bases on New Year’s Day today.  I have eaten Napa Cabbage Salad, Cabbage Rolls, Collard Greens, and Black Eyed Peas.  Four dishes to guarantee prosperity in the new year. At lunch I started with Napa Cabbage Salad. I’m thinking salad counts in this traditional cash-ensuring fare but  to be certain I made […]

Merry Christmas 2015

Merry Christmas 2015

We had a great Christmas.  I know you did, too. Our official Christmas started when we went to our Christmas eve service at church and then home for supper, opened one Christmas eve present, and played games. Here is my Christmas eve present.  My mom gave me my traditional 5 pound wheel of Baby Swiss. […]

The Best Kind of Christmas Music

The Best Kind of Christmas Music

The best kind of Christmas music is the kind sung by your family and friends.  I got to go to  a wonderful afternoon of music presented by Davis’ high school chorus in conjunction with the Southern Crescent Chorale. I was actually able to spot Davis from my balcony seat.  It was a packed house. See my brown […]

Thanksgiving 2015

Thanksgiving 2015

I know I’m late with Thanksgiving wishes for everyone but we had our Thanksgiving today instead of yesterday so I didn’t have much to post on the actual day.  My brother, sister-in-law, niece, and nephew came for Thanksgiving today in addition to my mom, Olivia and Davis. I used my Lenox Autumn china (Yippee) and […]

4th of July

4th of July

Absolute Anonymität I couldn’t resist sharing my 4th of July Snapchat photo.  I hope your Fourth was fun.  We started our day with a birthday breakfast for Alec.  He was here with Olivia for the weekend. Happy Birthday! Did you notice the portrait pancakes?  Olivia made one for each of us. How did she do? […]
