OH MY...a 7 lb Apple Pie?




I was plundering in my deep freeze this weekend, when I came across a bag of dried apples. So I thought I just put them suckers on to boil for a while.....I didn't time to measure Nothing.....Nothing I tell you!


Jeff makes fun of me from time to time when I comment on something....I'll say that sure is pretty produce, or that sure is pretty dirt.....on & on!


Well, that sure is a pretty PIE!


It just so happens my nephew came in the door about the time it was coming out of the oven! Being his number savvy self he is he rated it a "8".....hmmmmm I couldn't do it again in 100 years!

"CRAFTY CAT" strikes again!

I can't remember for the life of me where I got this table.....I've thought & thought about it!


My favorite part if the red flower print in two of the corners!
I don't have room for the whole table. So my handy-dandy husband took the top off hung it up for our picture & such.....TAA-DAAA!

We'll I'm trying to get back in to a groove of some kind around here.....it's been a whirl wind of a ride. I'm ready to get off this roller coaster for now. I haven't posted anything since last October. Boooooo Me! =D I'm trying to do better! Here goes!

We had a great Thanksgiving. We went to mothers, had too much to eat as always. I loved it but my favorite part was the Wii .....That was the funniest thing ever! We all took our turn to do our best at bowling,dancing & baseball! It was so fun!
On another note....I lost my mother Dec.21,2010....less than a month after these pictures were taken.
