Sunshine day!



Been working on the family cookbook/notions book a lot, so the blog is a little dusty!

Now and then I catch myself missing my grandmother's soup or maybe her lovely dumplings. And our kids call asking how to make a dish they grew up enjoying. So...I decided it was time to make a little family book and toss in the recipes that are particular to our family, little bits of times past here and there, a knitting pattern or two...just things that we'd like to keep. Hopefully it'll be done in time to give as presents at Christmas, and hopefully I won't gnash my teeth a week later because I left out some extremely important piece that should be rememebered in it.

Today tho....I have dedicated to the sunshine and brilliant colors, wallowing in perfect temperatures and lively breezes. Yellow roses that smell like spiced heaven and brave miniature roses battling the briars and weeds! (Meaning if I had any conscience at all, I'd be helping them do battle, but that's for tomorrow..)
Some iced tea will make things exactly right!
