Turn Back Time
I found an old blog post that I wrote about two years ago that for some reason I never got around to actually posting! It made me chuckle. Now it’s your turn… We took the kids to watch the Navy’s Blue Angels last week. Those guys are air-studs for sure. Courageous and Brave. That’s what…
Drying Herbs & a Colonial Recipe
For the past couple of years I have been bringing my herb cuttings indoors to dry for use over the winter, but this year I decided to take it one step further and add some foliage and flowers to the mix in the hopes of making my own potpourri. Anyone ever done this before? Tips…
What are you waiting for?
I’ve decided to stop. Stop waiting for the right time to post pictures. Or write about all the things. I have so many ideas and want-to’s that I think I get bogged down with them all and end up not getting to any of them. Anyone else ever feel like this? Life is busy. Crazy…
Crabbers are Crazy & Lemon-Lavender Pound Cake
We had a really big rain/wind storm the other day and I learned something new… Crabbers, (Watermen? Fishermen? Guys who go out on boats and drop pods for crab…Crabbers?) whatever you want to call them, are simply crazy! Nuts! Loco! Ya’ll, I watched their boats bounce back and forth, to and fro, side to…

Our New-Old-Farmhouse!
You’re back, yay! Ready to see the inside of our new-old-farmhouse? Great! But first, why don’t you grab a few boxes and help a girl out, ha! Too bad it doesn’t work like that. Want to hear a funny story? It goes like this… It was a dark and windy night (I’m afraid of the…
Today is THE Day!
Today is the day! It’s Get-the-Keys-to-our-new-Old-house day! And not just any old house mind you, a beautiful HISTORIC farmhouse that sits right on the water! It. Is. Gorgeous! And it’s on base. On the water. A FARMHOUSE! And I can’t believe they’re letting us live there. And it’s on the WATER! Want to see it? Of…
Halloweensie Story: Cordelia the Chicken’s Halloween
Halloween’s a’comin and the tricks have already started around here. And by tricks I mean the sort where you sit at your desk for four agonizing hours trying to figure out how to improve the layout of your blog, I do not recommend this for anyone even half as technically challenged as yours truly, and…
Mama’s Mint Limeade
I may have gone overboard with the mint this year. I planted sweet peppermint and chocolate mint. And then I tossed out some miscellaneous mint I found hidden in my seed stash. And guess what? I got minted ya’ll, and I liked it! Well, technically I’m still getting minted, probably will be for…
