STORING PINEAPPLE!!




I found this on Pinterest and wanted to check this out. I love fresh pineapple, but it tends to dry out after it is cut.


GOOD MORNING!!


GOOD MORNING!!!

   
It's just way, way to early to be up. Especially since I was still up at 2:am. Yuk!! Even Sammy thinks it's way to early to be up. But there's so much to do to get ready for this yard sale in two days.I can't believe it's only 2 days away. 
     


I have some cleaning to do today, laundry to get done, and I have to take my Sammy Boy for a walk. I think he is going stir-crazy in the house. He is used to getting out and going.  

I have to make my way to the grocery store sometime today, and cook dinner. 

But first


it's coffee-time!!

~Yawn ~

FOOD TASTING PARTY!!!


Hi! I thought I would share this really fun party my daughter and I put on. It was a lot of fun just trying to figure out what to put in all these little dishes I had gotten at Pottery Barn. It made a beautiful display.  Everyone loved trying all the different foods and drinks. A great way to have a get-together!!  The picture above is melon balls and in the back was cheeseball and strawberry daiquiri's.





Here's Laci being her "creative" self.

JOB FINISHED!!


Took most of day but cabinets and drawers  are all cleaned out!!



Now what to do??

GO KRISTIE!!



Just finished watching "Dancing With The Stars" and so so happy.  I was so hoping Bristol was going home before Kristie.  And she did tonight!!  Woo-Hoo!  Hang in there in Kristie!  I know she won't win, but she gives it her all. I know she will probably go home soon, but not tonight!!!

Don just got back. He was in New Jersey on business. Sammy was so happy to see him. You would think he had been gone for weeks. He was only gone for 2 days.  So glad he is back. Welcome home, Don!





Now it is time to watch this debate.  Think a nice glass of Moscato will go well with that. I hope everyone enjoys their evening.

RATED PINTEREST RECIPES



Hello everyone!  Just wanted to let you know if you like cooking, follow me on Pinterest. I have tried several of the recipes I have found on there. I have a folder called "Pinterest recipes I have tried".  I rate each one from 1to 5 stars and say something about each recipe. Of course this is only my opinion, but if you see something there you try, be sure and let me know what you  think of it.

If you see any recipes that are not rated, it just means I have moved them into that folder because I am getting ready to make these, so be sure and check back for the rating.

If you see something in my food folder that you would like for me to cook  and rate, let me know. Will be happy to try it for you. :)

Happy Tuesday

THANK YOU!!!

I just want to take a minute and thank my daughter, Kisha for helping me with this blog. I can't believe how much there is to do, to put a a blog out. Thank goodness for her wonderful knowledge of all of this.  It would have taken me a long time to get everything on here that needs to be on here. So,




for all your help. I love you very much..




LOVE MOM


EVERYDAY STUFF!




Hello. Just finished watching Dancing with the stars. Worried for Kristie. I think she was on the bottom tonight. Yikes! We gave her 27 votes tonight to try to help her stay another week.  I know she won't win, but I think she is better than Bristol. I have always liked her. Good luck, Kristie!!

I have to really get busy on yard sale stuff for this Saturday. There is a large community garage sale and I have decided to put stuff out this time. Usually, I like walking around and checking out all the stuff everyone else has. But we have a bunch of stuff that needs to go. I think we have 8 recliners in this house. 3 or 4 of those all going.  We have a treadmill that is going.  No, not my new one!  lol A bunch of kitchen stuff, all kinds of stuff in the garage, a freezer,  wall units, etc.  Only one rule!! If it goes out, it doesn't come back in.  Goes straight to Goodwill.

I am going to get my hair colored in the morning. Still trying to decide if I should cut it or not. Maybe even go with bangs again. Just not sure. Will let you know tomorrow how this goes.

I think I am going to have a nice glass of Moscato, and get to sleep a lot earlier tonight. Night before last I was up until 4:30 am and last night Don said, "You should try and get to bed before the werewolves come out and bite you.  lol  So It was 2:30 am. I am ready for some sleep.  Good night, all!

SAMMY BOY!!








Hi. I thought I would introduce you to my very spoiled, rotten, beautiful Havenese, Sammy Boy.
I thought I had spoiled animals before him.  Ha Ha!


FAMILY AND FRIENDS





Hi everyone! I thought I would tell you a little about me and my family.

About 31/2 years ago, I was living in Spring Hill, Florida.  I decided to go visit my daughter, Kisha, in Coshoton, Ohio.  I went to work there in the malls with the Fairy and Knight set so I could extend my visit with her and Scott .

BLAST FROM THE PAST!!!



For the past 27 years, I have had a small business taking children's portraits. The name of the company is Suzy-Q's Photos.  I photograph children in day cares, child care center, churches, schools, and malls.

  
















The very first photos I took, many years ago, were Pony Pictures.


The name of the business was "Pony Portraits".  I took my pony to Krogers, HEB's, K-Mart, Wal-Mart, Murphy-Marts, and many other stores and malls. They would not let your doggy in, but everyday, I would walk right in that
