I’m just sitting here, enjoying a quiet snowy day.
I love the way the snow glistens when the sun hits it.
I’m thinking of putting the kettle on and making a
nice cup of tea in a little bit. You know they say that

Snow, Teas, and Infusions
January 29, 2009Over the River and Over the Woods…
January 29, 2009Over the river and over the woods to Grandmother’s house I go….I’m so excited. I am going to visit my Grandma Mamie. She lives in Dallas. I’ve not seen her in almost two years. Southwest Airlines had a terrific deal on a round trip flight. So, guess what I got for Christmas. Yep, a [...]

I love it because I always have the ingredients on hand. My kids will have the memory of Momma over the stove stirring the cocoa. They come running when they [...]
Bless…Praise…Boast…Magnify…Exalt…Seek…and Be Delivered
January 23, 2009I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.
My soul shall make its boast in the Lord; the humble shall hear of it and be glad.
Oh, magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together.
I sought the Lord, and He heard me, and delivered me [...]
Anybody Else Thinking About Gardening? New Debbie Mumm Desktop
January 22, 2009
My friends and I have been talking about vegetable gardens for this summer. I’ve never really gardened before, just a few tomato plants. I’d like to try a few more things this year. I’ve heard good things about heirloom seeds. Anyone got any favorites for a new gardener?
