QUILT SHOW

Today I went to the quilt show at the Petetneet.
This is a picture of me and Grandma Bliss standing in front of the wall-hanging's we made this year. They were so much fun to make and it was neat to see how different they looked when they were done.
I made mine out of cotton fabric and Grandma Bliss' is out of flannel.
This is a picture of our winter wall hanging's.
Mine is on the left and has a dark blue boarder around it, Grandma Bliss' is on the right and the boarder is red.
Cindy also made one with the same pattern but she didn't enter hers in the show. (Party Pooper)
This is my mom, (aka Grandma Bliss) and my sister Cindy.
Enjoying the day working at the quilt show.



This was my favorite wall hanging at the show, (other than mine and Grandma's of course.)
It is the Be-Attitudes.


As I was leaving the quilt show, I saw this beautiful rose and had to snap a picture. I Love the color, it is so pretty!

Soup Tureens and Gravy Boats


I LOVE soup tureens and gravy boats. I don't have a lot of them but I love them.
So I was thinking about that the other day, wondering what it is about these two things that make me happy. This is what I came up with..... homemade soup is my favorite food ever! It is comfort food to me. That explains the soup tureens.
When me and my husband got married I had to learn how to make gravy because he loves gravy and grew up wth a mom that made alot of gravy,..."his comfort food."
So that is how I explain why I love soup tureens and gravy boats. To us they say "Comfort."

SO LET'S HAVE LUNCH!

We had such a fun girly day.
We all got Glitter Toes!
There were six of us but two had to leave early so here is a picture showing four of us after getting all glittery.
Bet you can guess wich toes are mine.
There were so many pretty colors to choose from but I stuck to my favorite PINK!
Thanks everyone. I can't wait to get our Fourth Of July toes done!

Happy Memorial Day Everyone!
I love all of the beautiful flowers you see on Memorial Day!


Ready to go to the cemetery.
Every year I tend to go with a new color of flower.
Last year was all about red and yellow.
This year I am going with pink and purple for the cemetery.
In the yard it's mostly purple, white, and some pink.
I will post the pictures of the yard flowers another time.


Have a Fabulous Day!
Bye for now.

Yummy and Easy

I just wanted to share this yummy recipe with all of you.
It is so easy.


This is the finished product.... it is so yummy looking.

I love to cook but don't always have the time that some recipe's take so I love it when I find an easy, what I like to call a "throw together recipe."
This is a recipe I got watching Paula Dean. I don't even know what it's called but my family sure liked it.
Hope you enjoy it.
13x9 pan
Make a grahm cracker crust by crushing up grahm crackers and adding 1 cub of
melted butter.
Then put 1 Cup of butterscotch chips on the crust.
Next 2 Cups semi sweet chocolate chips. (We don't always put this much because
it is really chocolatey.)
1 cup sweetened flaked coconut
Cover with 1 can sweetened condensed milk.
Bake at 350 for 30 min.



This is what it looks like before it is baked....



And this is after.....
