Not Your Gram's Afghan. A fun place to show off my crafty projects and ideas ;-). Friday, October 3, 2014. Owen is getting so big! My nephew, Owen, is getting so big. I can't get over it! I had a chance to babysit him in August and he was just adorable! The dog, Dakota, was on clean up duty of Cheerios. Owen loves to get kisses from the dog. Owen had an ear infection so he wasn't feeling well later, but he liked to snuggle and watch baby einsteins. I love that blanket! You remember the Owen Hoodie. Littl...

Scotty's Place: A Picnic & Some Cooking
http://scottys-place.blogspot.com/2015/08/a-picnic-some-cooking.html
Wednesday, August 05, 2015. A Picnic and Some Cooking. I fixed us a picnic lunch on Monday and off we went to see what we could discover. First stop was the Waneta Boundary Crossing Store for a Discovery Pass. You need one of those passes to enter and use a lot of the picnic and camping areas around here. They're $30 per year per vehicle. The store was about 10 miles up the road from us on our side of the River. As you can see, it was a pretty trip. This is Sheep Creek. That's where we had our picnic.

Monday, June 29, 2015. Depression is a Killer. I'm very sad to hear this. Unfortunately, I understand how she must have been feeling and how this could happen. It's not a mystery to me at all. Depression, and most especially depression when you are a hyper-sensitive person, can be a killer. I'm thankful I have had some one. Who loves me and is able to pull me out of those dark times.

Friday, February 27, 2015. Welcome to Snowy Texas. Eli is saying the same thing, but I'm not sure if it's about the weather or me taking his photo while he's pooping. What a good boy braving the snow and cold! Sammi just takes a big ol' shit on the porch! She's always done that when it's snowing or raining. She ain't going out in it! I roasted a Butterball Turkey Breast (Cajun Seasoned) on Wednesday. We had turkey, dressing, green beans, deviled eggs, and cranberry sauce. It was so good! Me and Ollie (ag...

Friday, October 31, 2014. In With the New. A new doily is being born, and my iPhone is out the door today. We're getting new ones. Not sure what kind yet. I got myself some proper, more official-looking journals to draw in. This tea is SO FREAKIN' GOOD! Just opening the box and taking a whiff made my eyeballs roll back in my head. A little sweetener and a dash of milk in mine, please. Ollie approves of the new tea too. Oh, Happy Halloweenie! Links to this post. Wednesday, October 29, 2014. My suggestion ...

http://scottys-place.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 26, 2015. I worked on the hexie blanket some more adding the white round to all the itty-bitty middles. I'm loving the relaxed, slow pace of this project.just a handful every now and then while watching TV when I feel like it. They are fun to look at. Do you ever make a turkey breast? They're really good. This Cajun-spiced one is our favorite. My Onion-Cheese Bread risen. And after it baked. Mmm! I always like seeing the pile-o-dogs in the mornings. As you see, everything is the same here.

Monday, August 31, 2015. Saturday, August 29, 2015. Martha and Me - August. This month, I tried another recipe for my Martha and Me challenge - Peach Pie Crumble Bars. From the July/August issue of Martha Stewart Living. Magazine (click the link to see the recipe on Martha's site). I had hoped to try something else too, but August was a busy month and to be honest, this issue of the magazine was a bit lean on interesting ideas. In July, I had made Strawberry Shortcake Sundaes.

Monday, December 29, 2014. Two years ago today, I published my first post to this blog.

Merry Christmas from our family to yours! Tuesday, December 23, 2014. Saturday, December 20, 2014. I realized that I've already made it to December 20 without watching Love Actually. And I think I'll remedy this tonight. After that, A Christmas Story. After st...
