daily yarns 'n more

down county road e

I took the long way home today to take some photos.  The cows along this fence line felt the grass was much better on the other side, not greener, just better :)

I went by the eagles nest hoping to see the eagle and I wasn't disappointed.  I was disappointed that I didn't have my zoom lens with me, you can barely see him in the tree.

Then driving along I spied something high up on the hill, something I hadn't seen before.

Some kind of rock formation, now that the leaves are gone it's easy to spy.  I wonder if I'll be able to find it again this spring.

Not much snow on the ground here, tho today we had some flurries that didn't amount to much.  I wonder what summer is going to be like if our winter is so mild.

i'm on a mission

To clean out my cupboards.

My cupboards are full, my freezers are full, full of food that needs to be eaten...SO....I am not going grocery shopping until I can see the bottom of the freezers and my cupboard shelves are bare.  I told Jim the other day that we could live for close to a month on just what we have in the house.  I will have to buy some things like milk, cheese, fruits, vegetables, toiletries etc.  But, I'm making meals with what I find in my cupboards.  We eat a lot of dried beans and rice and we've cut out white flour and sugar from our diet as much as possible.  It's been fun seeing what I can come up with.

I've been using my crock pot lately, it's so nice, I put it going in the morning and don't think about dinner until it's time to eat, last night was pepper steak over rice.

Hope I didn't make you too hungry.

days...

Spent baking...

taking walks with my camera...

cooking tasty dinners...

watching the sun go down...

How do you spend your days?

i was in paris

Paris Illinois that is...I haven't done Barn Charm since last November...YIKES...One of the reasons I haven't is that I had been too busy to visit the other blogs doing Barn Charm and felt bad that if I entered and not visited the other entries that wouldn't be nice.  But, I miss posting and joining the fun meme.

So, I'm going to start doing it again and try to visit the other entries.
