Somehow when I wasn’t looking several years passed and I didn’t blog!  I was busy making things and yes I was cooking but somehow I didn’t put anything here on my website!  Shame on me!  Well, I made a New Years resolution to get back at it, and here it is February and I still haven’t started, so, here I am, trying to get back into the habit.  Yes indeed!  Hopefully someone will stop back by, but if not, I’ll just be sending these out into cyberspace.

I do have a cool new cooking toy that I want to share.  Hopefully in the very near future.  And I’ll share some things I’ve made, and dig up some of the photos I took along the way thinking I would post them at some point.  And, I’ll post some cool snow pictures I took when we went to New Mexico in January!  Yeah, snow is a big deal when you live where it’s summer all of the time.

So, ok, I’m back.  I promise.

I’m back after a long break to go visit my new grandson in TX. Here’s a bit of serenity –enjoy!

Because the lizards are looking for love. 🙂

The squirrels are out and about and pairing up. That can only mean one thing, baby squirrels! I can’t wait! We don’t get much wildlife in the yard here, and I’m not sure exactly where the squirrels live, because I see them only once in awhile, but every year I do see the young ones playing around in the trees.
So, hopefully, soon they will be doing their acrobatic best!

And who am I to argue?! 🙂

It’s Handmade Monday again and the project I was working on today didn’t turn out.  I had such lovely photos of the beginning of it, got all the way thru and nothing!  I know what I did wrong, and I can sort of salvage it, but not in time for Handmade Monday, and since it’s still Easter Sunday here, I don’t want to spend the rest of the day on this.  So, I’m going to link to yesterday’s blog, which really was a good one that most people probably didn’t see anyway.  No, really, even tho it’s an Easter thing, I think you will enjoy it, and put this recipe into your recipe book for next year (or find a way to make these for some other occasion–they are AWESOME!).

Check it out here.  🙂  And check out Handmade Monday because those ladies make the coolest stuff!  Just click on the link at the beginning of this post.  but not until you check out the Butter Cream Easter Egg recipe.  🙂

I accidentally stumbled upon something fun this week, called Handmade Monday on another craft blog.  I’m so glad I did because I met a nice group of other craft bloggers with a diverse selection of ideas. I hope I can keep up with them! Please go check them out too!
