Last night we attended a fund raiser for two very smart, hard-working women running for office in our area. It was a real pleasure to hear them speak and and the whole event was a lot of fun. Donna Bebo (left) and Susan Paddack (right) We served a free meal of beans, cornbread and cobbler….
My new boots!
I ordered myself a new pair of rain boots and they arrived today. Aren’t they cute? And just in time since it’s been raining today and we have more in the forecast the next couple of days. I bought them from a delightful New Orleans store called Fleurty Girl. Here is the link to the…
My Autumn Bucket List
I took the photo above last November but I’m re-running it for this post because, well, it doesn’t look like fall here yet and I needed a picture. Y’all know how I feel about summer ending and how I live in denial about the whole thing. If I had my way the year would go…
Autumn in Oklahoma
Today is the Autumnal Equinox, otherwise known as the first day of fall. Here in Oklahoma you might be forgiven if you didn’t notice that. It was very warm today and not at all fall-like. Actually that’s okay with me. I like early fall well enough as long as I don’t think too much about…
Friday on Apple Tree Farm
One of the unexpected benefits of having a dog is that I now spend more time walking around our property. We don’t have a fenced area for him yet so we take him for walks on a leash – don’t want to chance him running off and getting hurt. I may not be so thrilled…
On days like these…
Yesterday I had a doctor appointment and rather than going through town, I took the back roads. I did so to avoid midday traffic (if you live in a city, you can laugh) and traffic lights but I was so struck by the beauty of the route that I went home that way, too. You…
He spoils me
The other day I told David that I want my very own Snap-On screwdriver with interchangeable heads in my Christmas stocking. We used to have an orange one in the kitchen drawer and it was the only thing we had with the proper head for taking apart my Bosch mixer for proper cleaning. Then “someone”…
A birthday party
We had such a fun day yesterday. Our nephew was celebrating his 16th birthday so we drove to their house (Tulsa area) to join in the festivities. I even remembered to take a few pictures. Here is Austin with his cake (yummy ice cream cake!): Ashlin and Austin in their glasses/noses: Opening gifts. Huck is…
Hippies and Amish
Once a month my daughter and I go to Norman, the nearest city, to do our monthly grocery shopping. We refer to it as our “hippie day” because we eat at a restaurant called Pink Elephant Cafe and Tres Cantina and then shop primarily at locally-owned, health food type stores. We also drop off our glass…
