This and That

Buckwheat pancakes with strawberries.

Soon to be soup.  This will be last bean soup until the fall.

Taken out of my office window.

Spring is here!

What is it?

It is horseradish.  A co-worker of mine has a vegetable garden as big as a football field and every now and then he brings in something for the girls in the office.  This time it was horseradish.  I got a recipie off the internet and figured I'd try it.

Now they are ready for processing.  Peel and cut.  Put in a blender.  Add vinegar, salt and sugar.  Puree.

This is the finished product and boy it is ever potent.  I think I will mix some with beets to take the heat off.

New Mugs

I just got these mugs last Saturday.  I don't know what it is, but drinking coffee or tea from a beautiful mug makes it taste much better.

Cross Stitch

I cross stitched these several years ago.  I have them hanging in my family room.

Soon to be Pins

I went to Michael's craft store on Saturday to get my light house x-stitch framed.  Of course I had to look at everything in the store.  I came across these 2 pendants in the bead/jewelry aisle.  They were on clearance, so I had to buy them.  I will remove the loops in the back and glue on pin hardware instead.

Table Runner

I am very happy with the way the table runner turned out.

New Boots

I needed these.

My husband agreed.   He said my closet needed another pair of boots.  Good thing I bought them!

They are so comfy.
