Been a bit housebound recently

decided to take some

random photos

Collections

woodpile....a beautiful thing

thank you "e".....

 ready for the colder temps...

one of my many collections...

 did have more stacked boxes, 

but one of my sons

seems to ask for one(or two)

whenever he get's a chance...

 this is only a small portion 

of my enamelware........

 yes, the pumpkins are still out...

can't find the snowmen (collection)

in the shed.

I've collected dishes 

since I was a teenager.

Even gave some to my daughter

when she got married.

See the stacked picnic baskets?

Another collection.

new totes in the shop.

first snow of the winter

beautiful

 

 

but treacherous

the day was gloomy as the snow fell

a thick covering of ice 

under all the beautiful snow

 

..........so I stayed in and cooked

warming the house and filling the bellies

found this recipe on Pinterest 

I converted it to a bread machine recipe

to knead the dough and

the rolls turned out beautiful

 

 

also made a pumpkin cheesecake

 

 

today is bright and sunny but 

the temps are in the teens

so along with the sun shining in the windows

and this

 

 

we should stay warm and toasty.

Today I must sew!!
