One of my Favorite Crafts

Crocheting! My grandmother Lovell taught me how to crochet when I was about 13 and I have enjoyed crocheting ever since.

I enjoy making afghans most of all. The above afghan is one I have worked on for a while. It is a very easy pattern and I can pick it up and put it down as much as I need to without having to follow a step by step pattern. Hopefully I will be able to finish sewing this together this weekend.

I have found a baby boy afghan I am going to make next I think. More on that later.

Friday Favorite

So this is a day late. I started this post before I left for work yesterday morning and completely forgot about posting it when I got home from work. Anyway...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SISSY!!



I am all the time telling Sissy that she is my favorite daughter. She will then remind me that is because she is my only daughter. I then remind her that that has nothing to do with it! Any who, my favoite daughter turned 20 today! I cannot believe that my baby is 20!

Her dad and I are very proud of her! She is not only a great daughter but a great person. Hope you have a great one sweetie!

Favorite Cutting Board

My dh husband and dd bought this for me as a present for Christmas one year. I had wanted one of these ever since I saw my dsl. It has rollers on the bottom so I can roll it around my small kitchen and use it wherever I want to. Also, the sides pull up for more space or you can let them down.

Although I know the baskets are supposed to be used for vegetables, I only use one basket for this. I have all of Riley's treats in the top one, potatoes in the second one and the bottom one I put the canned or boxed ingredients I will be using that week in my recipes just for convience.

I hope everyone has a great Friday and a great weekend!

Favorite Griddle

I was unable to post yesterday so I will do it today. I was helping our Pastor's wife decorate the fellowship hall for our Mother/Daughter banquet this afternoon. We are expecting at least 50 to be there. Wish you all could come with me.



This makes the second griddle I have bought. I love to cook on my griddle when I have a lot of things to cook such as bacon, sausage, eggs, hamburgers etc.
I don't know what I done before I bought this.

Favorite Tortillas

After taking a closer look at the food I eat at each meal, I realized that I do not get near enough fiber in my diet. One of the ways I have tried to get more fiber besides eating vegetables is eating whole grain bread. After many, many attempts I have finally just given up on the bread thing. I can eat whole grain bread as toast but as a sandwich I just cannot get used to it. So, while at the deli at Wal-Mart last week, I came across these.



I warm one of these up in the microwave for 10 seconds and then put scrambled egg, turkey bacon, tomatoes and green onions inside and fold up. I actually like it! Each tortilla has 4g of fiber and 5g protein.

I went back last week to get another package and guess what? They did not have any more. Just my luck!

I hope you all have a great weekend and don't forget to go to church Sunday! Talk to everyone on Monday.
