Small Servings

I love collecting small cute bowls for single serving size snacks

Shrinky Dinks Butterfly Necklace

Back in the Aleene's days I was known as the Shrink-It Queen.  I saw a post on Mark Montano's page recently where he made a beautiful butterfly necklace using Shrinky Dinks and clip art.  I made his version now I need to make one using photos from my recent trip to Butterfly Wonderland.

Indoor Blueberries

I turned my back...I've had my blueberry bush indoors the last couple of weeks so that I could maybe get to eat a few berries.  I had my sliding door open, went into the kitchen to do something and came back into the living room to a bluejay stealing the goodies then flapping around the room trying to get out.  Hope it didn't leave me any little gifts!

Green Breakfast

Yummy zucchini pancakes made with zukes from my garden topped with amazing avocados from my neighbors yard!!!  

Smoothie Medley

A friend gave me some nectarines, plums and peaches.  I put a little of each in a freezer

bag for a delicious smoothie once summer is gone.

Celebrate everyday

It's been a sad week with the loss of two family members.  So, when I received a message from a friend from one of my former lives that she and her husband were going to be in town I looked forward to their visit.  She mentioned they were celebrating her birthday early so I went into The Party Girl mode.  I knew I had zucchini in my garden so I whipped up some yummy zucchini cupcakes.  I can't do ordinary so I got out a tiered server, added paper crinkles and some flowers from my yard to make the little celebration special.  Don't wait for a special day do a little something out of the ordinary everyday!

Day of Bounty

I finished my day off with fresh green beans from my garden and a ramekin filled with a juicy peach cobbler.  From a zucchini scramble for breakfast to a peach smoothie for lunch it was a scrumptious day!!!
