Saturday Morning...

it was beautiful start to the day, the temps reached im sure near 70 above on Saturday.
and it was the beginning of the Church Sales.. so i found myself in the early bird line at 6:45am, found a few things and then decided to wait for a garage sale at a nearby Japanese Park. it was peaceful and full of life, with lots of different birds and blooms...

a perfect Saturday morning...


enjoy your day my blog friends!                                    jody

Helpers stopped by..

I made scones the other morning for mom, her sister Auntie Norma, sister Jana and Heidi
who stopped by to help me wrap soap.

 its always fun to have a babe around and brother jim stopped by to visit too.

 i ventured out to a sale last Saturday at a friends hobby farm so i took a few pictures.

Good Friday Hello....

I stopped over to discuss " Timeless Treasures " with Cindys husband Dennis and he showed me that their plant they have had for years had bloomed.. its just beautiful. i think its called a wax plant? the bloom is heavy and solid wax like blooms not airy and delicate.

and then i discovered it bloom bloomed!! Beautiful! delicate airy blooms....

these are my Easter stockings that my friend/kindred spirit Shelly aka.. Shell Bell made me years ago.
i love them and always think of our time together when we were stationed in Rapid City, SD.

i am always trying to perfect my Cracker bread/ lavash recipe..

shrimp with garlic ailoi/havarti cheese...

and always trying to perfect the granite city bacon/tomato flat-bread pizza..

a couple fun Easter chicken photos....

Enjoy your Easter weekend my blog friends!                              jody
