Thanksgiving Dinner

Hi All,
Yesterday was our big feast at my sister-n-laws, so today I cooked for my family :) On the menu was turkey, baked corn casserole, candied yams, apple salad, rolls, pumpkin pie and Granny's chocolate sheet cake. I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. My family.... Mom, Dad, me, Dan, Jake and Taylor. My Dad's head is healing up nicely. He still has the small bandage on the top, but we think only one more trip to the doctor and we will be on our own. Yay!

Vintage Things

Hi All,
I have shown you my hand built shelf above my microwave before. It is now dressed up for Christmas. There are several vintage things displayed on the shelf. The coffee grinder, a birthday gift from my daughter, my spice cabinet, which I bought in the early 80's and sitting on top of it is my Grandpa's harmonica. He called it the French Harp. He would play the french harp and he taught me to chord along on the piano. I loved those times on their farm :)


I have added my gingerbread bakers and a tree. A closer look...
Happy Thanksgiving!

Christmas Vignette

Hi All,
Hope you are all having a good week! I ususally hang the stockings over the fireplace, but I thought I would change it up alittle this year and hang them from one of my shelves in the living room. I think they look cute here. Above is my son's senior picture and a photo of my son with my Uncle and our family friend, who's parents built our beloved Cape house. :) They are golfing in Arizona, where my Uncle lives.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Christmas At The Hotel

Hi All,
Last night our Garden Club had their Christmas dinner at our area Hilton Garden Inn. I wanted to share the beautiful decorations. This hotel has a full restaurant and it is attached to a convention center. Hope you enjoy the beautiful decorations in the hotel. Entrance into the convention center... This is what you see after entering into the hotel...

Sunday Meeting

Good Evening Everyone,
Hope you are all enjoying your Sunday evening. One of the things we enjoy is our late Sunday afternoons from 4-6 p.m., and time with our good friends, Jim and Cindy. Jim was in Dan's class and Cindy and I were in the same class, in high school. We all grew up in this small community together. We get together sometimes at our local winery or each other's homes. This afternoon we had them over here, at the Cape house. The snacks are simple, cheese and crackers, homemade quacamole, chips, olives, nuts and wine.
We always have a great time and look forward to our next get together :)
Hope you all have a great week!
