I have the cutest friend that has taken some fabulous photos for me over the years, and again she did not disappoint. We had the annual family photos taken a few weeks ago and I think they turned out smashing. But I do love all the people in these photos a whole ton so that may affect my liking just a bit. Thanks Celeste! And if you want to talk to her I'm leaving a link to her blog. She's fantastic! We took the pictures one Sunday right ... ...continue reading
Wassail
Was Thanksgiving not wonderful? We just got back from the best long weekend with friends. My kids were all in tears as we drove over the Golden Gate Bridge headed for home. They loved being with their San Francisco "cousins". For days there were six children snuggled on a huge leather couch watching all sorts of movies and loving being together. We went for walks, and out to dinner. We stayed up way to late every night talking and ... ...continue reading
Homemade Butterfingers!
One of my favorite friends posted that she had made homemade Butterfingers on her Facebook status a few weeks ago and I was instantly intrigued. I LOVE BUTTERFINGERS. They're my favorite candy bar on the planet and I could eat them forever and ever and never get sick of them. And I trust this friend of mine. She makes the most "thigh twitchin' good" treats ever! Thigh twitchin' good is her expression, and sometimes that is exactly what ... ...continue reading

Pumpkin Spice Scones
I am finally in to fall. It came yesterday. Maybe it was the fact that Jimmy and I flew in yesterday from a lovely holiday and had a little layover in Denver. Denver was smack dab in the middle of winter. 5 inches of snow on the runway. Planes waiting forever to get de-iced, and cold white stuff falling. I decided right there and then that Fall is AWESOME! I will love it as long as it will stay.We came home to happy kids, (they were ... ...continue reading

It’s Snowing, And I Made A Really Great Treat!
Truly it's snowing. Right this very instant! I don't want this quite yet. Give me a few months. Actually it could stay fall for approximately 2 months and 19 days to be exact. I don't need snow until Dec. 25th, and then it can go away. Stay in the mountains is my motto, but I forget sometimes that I CHOSE TO LIVE IN THE STINKING MOUNTAINS! So it snows some years in Oct. Most years in Oct. Sometimes even June and Sept. I can really only ... ...continue reading
Peaches and Cream
Tis the season again for peaches. We have been thoroughly enjoying these beautiful late summer days. We haven't had a frost yet and everything is still producing like crazy. I think the Lord gave me such a beautiful September to make up for the cold slow coming summer. I have to admit to being a peach and tomato snob this time of year. I don't ever bother with tomatoes or peaches unless they are fresh, in season, and from the garden. I'll ... ...continue reading
Gourmet Night
Thanks Jill for posting the photos! We have a rather fun tradition that started quite a few years ago, that James' family and my family both like to do. We call it Gourmet Night, and it all started with a desire to learn more about Thailand's food. Years ago we had our first Gourmet Night at Jimmy's brother's home. He had served an LDS Mission to Thailand, and was going to teach some of us how to cook Thai food. That's how it all started. ... ...continue reading
