On The Dinner Plate/In The Soup Bowl

Actually it was the luncheon plate.  I made a breakfast casserole this week.  Made my own recipe combined a few from church lady cook books.  Needs some tweeking.  I'll be sharing my version soon. 

What I Plan To Bake
Chocolate Texas Sheath Cake oh yum...MaMa lost her recipe trying one from a friend from church

On My To Do List
Networking (it's a secret right now but could use some prayers)
Staying organized on my posts
Deep clean the house
Start a Fall Crochet Blanket

My Ta Da Moment
Got some crafts for swaps done.  I've been behind. 

On The Crafting Table

This was so fun to make it is called a Pocket Letter.  Made from a baseball card sleeve.  It is filled with treasures for a crafting friend. 

On My Reading Pile 
The mail man brought this one yesterday 

I was asked to review it so I thought I would give it a whirl. I'll let you know how it is. 

Added to this pile . . . 

FROM WILD TO MILD by Sunny Weber HURRICANE DOG by Sunny Weber  
What I am Reading Now

From the camera

A sweet one from the archives.  No he is big enough to feed the horses all on his own with me watching from the sidelines.

I try to get a jump on my Monday post, too...usually Sunday afternoon or evening...but it doesn't always happen. Your menus look good (last week's AND this week's) and I love your photos...especially the one of the pocket letter. I made those for the grandchildren one year for Valentine's Day. Have a great week ahead and may many blessings be yours! :)
