Busy as a Bee!....

Winter Slaw is the best!


and the easiest, when you have one of these..


YUM!


Then there is that expensive "chillin" box that we bought for 
the kitchen re-model


"cabinet depth, stainless steel, side by side"


PAIN IN THE NECK!


We have had it "fixed" twice...


and still, the little door that allows ice to be dispensed


doesn't close well enough to keep the ice from becoming a solid mass...


So....we struggle to get the ice handler out to defrost it...


chop the ice off the inside mechanism...


run cool water over the ice handler/boxie thingy


make sure that the button works again..


put a piece of plastic down to cover the floor...


and together we work on fixing the ice maker....
DO NOT BUY THIS KITCHENAID!


Ah....on to better things...


a gift of hen eggs from a farmer friend...


a completed apron for a friend of mine...


who has taken up cake decorating 
(maybe she will make me one!)


An opportunity to give a sweet young couple a family portrait...


My first Apple Tart...


Yes, it is not my recipe, but "her's"


A rose from my sweetie


A lovely couch that I found at a used stuff store...


clean it up...and I know right where to put it...


In my office!


hangin out with Not Yo Momma...


Just below the flower posters I bought years ago from 
Martha...


Inspired me to clean the ol' place up...


find a place for everything...


and everything in it's place...


dust it off..


organize...


under the watchful eye of my sweetie...






And Wha-Laa! 
I feel like a new person...
amazing how good being busy feels...
