Hello fall . . . I adore you.

Please wrap your arms around us and stay a long while,

Drop your gorgeous leaves and let us play in the piles.

Gift us with your colors and humble us with your chill,

Grace us with your calm, your quiet, that peace that we feel.

Hello fall . . . I adore you.

I stumbled across an interesting recipe the other day, over at Taste of Home. It wasn’t the apple or the crisp that made me take another look. It was the words cake mix.

I knew immediately that it would be scrumptious. It is and it was. I’ll be making this again and again!

The sun is shining today, and I should be outside washing my very dirty windows! Instead, I find myself attaching camera to desktop to share Strawberry Blueberry Cheesecake pictures with you. This no bake cheesecake is perfect, because it’s not too sweet. The crust isn’t your typical graham cracker crust, and the cheesecake mixture isn’t your typical cool whip center.

Strawberries are starting to pop up in glorious abundance, and it seems that my mind always turns to pie. Sometimes the most delicious desserts, are the easiest to prepare. Strawberry Cream Pie is a family favorite in this house, but it’s always fun to shake things up a bit. Key Lime Cream puts this dessert over the top!

Winter does give us a few perks. I believe that we don’t need to stress out quite as much, when it comes to our wardrobe.

1. We can just throw on a nice winter coat & a stylish pair of boots and we are set.

2. Toes don’t need to look perfect . . . nobody sees them.

3. Legs aren’t shaved quite as often, and we don’t seem to care.

Lastly . . . for me . . . the best perk of winter . . . a husband who is home earlier in the evening. Summer seems to kidnap him and forces him to work 16 hours a day. I have to be careful not to let myself sing the summer b-l-u-e-s. If you are or have been a farmers wife, then you can also relate to this feeling.

Dancing with a little pre- summer b-l-u-e-s . . . what should you do?

Make Orange rolls or Orange Coconut Pull-Apart Bread!

    I realized something today . . . something important. I don’t bake cookies very often anymore. It seems, I’m always on the hunt for something new for this blog, and the old just gets forgotten. How sad! Cookies make me happy.  A favorite Cookie recipe, is like a good friend. It’s warm, it makes […]

Where O Where have I been . . . you ask? I’ve been locked out of my blog. Really. It seems that someone out there, really wants to dig into the “roots” and get down & dirty.  I have a great server (InMotion VPS Hosting), and when someone other than myself continually tries to log-on unsuccessfully, […]
