Recovered chair seats

Got the chair seats all finished. Will post some more images of the room tomorrow.

Frosty Morning 2010

Just another image that I took that beautiful frosty morning. Those skates you can see at the bottom were Bill's as a young boy. They've only seen ornamental use for the past 30 years...LOL.
I wish I hadn't cut the top of the tree off. I think the image would have been better proportioned. The jar with the snowman in it was a gift from Bill a few years ago. It lights up but this was taken after the extremely wet weather blew the safety button in the outdoor plugs. I'll have to see if I can get one with it lit...sometime.
BTW...I'm thinking its getting time for a new blog design...its your turn!

The best chocolate sheet cake. Ever!

I finally got around to making this and boy was it ever good! I had every pan in the house dirty and had to run to the grocery store in the middle of it. Teach me to check for supplies BEFORE I start. LOL...here is the link to the recipe...the best chocolate sheet cake.....I will be making it again.

The recipe is from the Pioneer Women. The frame is by Cheri Shields from Gotta Pixel and the bow clip is by Mad Scrapper Designs. I got this kit free during one of the blog trains. I need to use it more...its got some super cute stuff in it.

Winter Wonderland

I wish I'd taken my camera to work on this day, January 12th 2010....the world was simply BEAUTIFUL! I can't capture the awe of it but I tried. There was nothing anywhere outside that wasn't covered in thick, white frost. When it started falling, it was like a heavy snow. Around 10 am, the sun started breaking through the clouds and the world was transformed into this lovely, bright, shiny white. Breathtaking, to say the least.

Banana Bread Loaves

Made these mini loaves today....I was in a cooking mood...fixed beans and cornbread and then fried Chicken for dinner. The beans and cornbread are to eat this week. I try and make up something we can heat up since I get home so late.
