A Break From Tea Time Tuesday for . . .

 If I had only known

Did you?



It was a special treat when MaMa bought the real thing!


Most of the time it was this.  MaMa bought the can.  I swear you had to use 1/4 of the can to make it taste even remotely  like this . . .



Thank goodness  she rarely  bought . . .



Now this is the 'Real Thing'!


Wish MaMa had this information 

A big glass.  You don't  even need a cookie!

Did you know?

Busy Monday Channeling Good Vibes

 Welcome to my Busy Monday post!

 

Are you Busy today? 


I have been super Busy working on my crochet project . . . 

Just look at all these cuties!  39!  The bad news is I probably have over 300 to go!  Wow!  I am gonna be Busy!  




I am Busy again working on my cabinets.  And cooking food for the dogs.  We had tried to go back to kibble.  But both dogs started having trouble.  Domino was allergic and started scratching all the time.  Literally the insides of her legs were pink and her belly too. So I switched her back.  

Problem solved!  

Then a couple weeks later Lola started having tummy problems.  Waking in the middle of the night.  A few times I couldn't get dressed fast enough! 

Back to mommy cooking 

Problem solved! 

Now I am getting Green Beans 24 cans a month and Peas 12 cans a month.  I cook and shred Chicken. 

That keeps me Busy!


I am Busy booking authors for a new Thursday feature here called In The Kitchen With _______.    I will have authors feature thier family favorites.  And recipes from thier books.     

And booking Tea Time Tuesday my weekly feature.  I book authors every other week.  Then on the other days I write a post.  

Did you see this one?

  It was super fun . . . 

I search everywhere for inspiration.

I don't even have a Tea Cup and I have never been to a Tea Party! 

I enjoyed writing about the Lemon Party.  Click Here

 

I stay  Busy reading.  And I am super excited that Harlequin has approved me after months of requests!   Have you visited my book blog?  


It is over Here come over check out the books I've been reading.  I also do a weekly New Release post.  You will find Cozy Mysteries and Sweet Clean reads.  


I am always Busy on Pinterest trying to find ideas for meals.  Planning meals is a huge challenge now.   I am trying this recipe . . . 


As an alternative to Salty Chips.  These are oven baked Wonton Wrappers.  I am making some tonight! 

And, that is just a few things that keep me Busy . . . 

So what is keeping you Busy today? 


BTW I'll be linking at

Happy Homemaker in Texas

 


The weather  

Gorgeous sunny weather.  I am thinking that Fall in Galveston is just perfect. 


Sunday and Monday it will get to 90.  The rest of the the week the high is mid 80's! 


As I look out  my window  

The weekends are always busy at my neighbors.  They raised 6 girls.  And 1 boy!  The boy is still at home  (most of the time).  The family home burned several of years ago and Mom and Dad ended up here in our complex.  There are lots of kids, grands and great grands in and out on the weekend. 

What a Blessing 

Right  now  I am 

Trying to stay positive


Thinking  and Pondering   

I am realizing that the prompts for HHM are a struggle for me . . . 


How I am  feeling  

Down and frustrated.  I feel alone.  But I am not. 


On the breakfast  plate  

On my breakfast plate . . .  Mostly I eat alone.
