{Hello friends}

  Hoping this finds my sister bloggers doing well on this windy Sunday afternoon. Yep, we've got a little wind howling around here and a tad cool but I am enjoying a lazy afternoon. My Sunday lunch crowd (my family) have left for the day so I am kicked back. Sunday menu today consisted of: Chicken and dressing Giblet gravy Italian green beans with ham Mac & Cheese Homemade chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting and chocolate ganache.  Yep, they are little spoiled at Nana's house.

Found this cute green plate with a darling bunny on it for 99 cents. Just had to have it. Goes with my green pitcher.    And lastly I fou...

FOTO FRIDAY

Well I have been a slacker on FOTO FRIDAY but just had to share these pictures of my youngest granddaughter. She loves to have a TEA POTTY! That is what she calls it!  I am not sure what she likes best,  Tea Party or a Book. Loves to grab an old pair of glasses and a book. This particular time she was "reading to her bears". She had already got the bear on the left to sleep! Hope you've enjoyed FOTO FRIDAY with me.  Have a great weekend.

We have a Winner!
