{February Happenings}

  Well our February Florida weather is cool in the mornings, warm during the day and cool at night. Which to be honest, suits me! But, we can't have perfect weather that suits us all can we? This weather has had me in the baking mode though. I saved a few apples from our mountain trip and baked an apple bundt cake to freeze for a Sunday dinner sweet.  Decided to whip up a batch of Kitty's shortbread spritz cookies. They weren't as pretty as hers but oh they would melt in your mouth. Be sure to pop over to see her recipe.  https://www.kittyskozykitchen.com/2025/01/impossibly-easy-ham-and-swiss-pie-and.html#more I had some left over deer venison and decided to make a Venison and Penne Casserole. Was a hit with Marty and his dad. But, we love all things venison around her neck of the woods.  One day I had some broccoli that was going to go bad if not used so whipped up a little comfort soup. Broccoli and shedder cheese soup.  My oldest granddaughter Raygen bought h...

{Happy After Christmas}

Happy "After Christmas" everyone. Some are smiling as they are glad the busy, hustle and bustle times are over and some, like me, just simply want to linger over the Christmas season just a while longer. My December focus was simply to be reminded that the greatest gift of all is salvation. The Lord has surely reminded me that this was a free gift that He gave to me and that was why He came to us long ago as a Baby. I do pray that you all had a wonderful, healthy and memory making Christmas.  We had a most wonderful Christmas with our family. Our daughters and their families celebrate the holidays with us (Every holiday to be exact! LOL) There is never a dull moment with my tribe.  Of course the grands make life so much more fun!  These girls of mine are simply a hoot! I wanted to share this special gift that I gave to each of my daughters. Their grandmother, Marty's mom who was my precious motherinlove gave me this recipe years ago in her hand writing. She's been gon...

{Happy December Everyone}

  Hello to everyone. I am so sorry that I have been missing in action with blogging as of late. I wanted to pop in and to tell you sweet friends that I am doing fine. Many of you have reached out to me. Marty and I have tried to do more hunting together this season and though he isn't retired he has taken an extra day here and there off so we have tried to hunt more. Marty's dad was also under the weather for a spell and though he is much better and able to hunt with us that surely requires extra time and attention and we are thrilled that he is able to go with us when we go. We've honestly had a lot going on and it would take too long for me to share. However, I wanted to pop in and say hey and that I do pray that you all have a very Merry Christmas. I am hoping to get back to some normalcy soon. Not sure what normal is at times but I give God the praise for every day we have.  I did harvest a nice buck on one my trips. The Lord just simply found favor in me on that cold...
