Love letter to My Husband

I don’t think we can ever tell the people closest to us how much we love them. I tell my husband every day I love him but I don’t know if he understands the full depth of my love. He is my best friend, my biggest cheerleader and he’s always there to dry my tears […]

So true…

I love the Facebook page @positiveenergyplus. They always have such uplifting stories and pictures and this one is so true.♥

Topics from my Brother-part 2

What do you cook with? In sticking with topics that my brother asked me about, he questioned the uptick in popularity of cast iron. He wanted to know why I thought it was all the rage again. To me the simple reason to cook with cast iron is because of its versatility. Today’s cast iron […]

Boxes of memories

I wasn’t sure if I was going to write about this aspect of my life but I think I will. In the last couple of weeks I’ve received boxes from both of my Parents. The one from my Dad was expected and and I was very excited to receive it because I knew it was […]

Finds from Grandma’s Recipe Box

Over the weekend I started to go through my Grandma’s recipe box. It was packed pretty tightly with all kinds of recipes. A lot of them where hand written, but quite a few you can tell she used a typewriter to type up the recipes. There were recipes for Church gatherings, Family gatherings and recipes […]
