it's the little things~

my daughter and i get together often

sometimes for a meal

but mostly

just because

i always look forward to these get togethers

because there will be

 much talk about

cooking

flower beds & vegetable gardens

and pinterest.............

always lots of plans to do the things we've seen on pinterest

and eating

we both enjoy cooking

but most of all

we LOVE eating

i usually fix the main dish and a side

and she brings desserts & salads

and always

 she brings her dad & i ice....

it may sound like such a little thing and it is

but

 it's the thought behind such a simple gesture

she knows her dad & i love the crunchy ice

that her icemaker churns out

she stands at the fridge for what

must seem like forever

filling a ziplock bag

with crunchy ice

to bring her mom & dad

thank you baby girl

for taking time

to do

the

little things

xoxo

sprouting.....and yes, i blogged again

the hubs & i love sprouts on salads

we've not tried sprouts on

anything besides salad

i would like to but

our area stores rarely carry sprouts

i've wanted to try sprouting so

we would have them whenever we wanted

so when katy over at

no big dill

had a blog about sprouting

i was thrilled

if you're interested in sprouting

pay her blog a visit

she gives a nice detailed explanation

and has a sweet blog

of juliet

(they were placed on the wall with gum)

of romeo & juliet that is~

from our europe trip several years ago

while this picture has nothing at all to do with the

title of this post

i thought it interesting

enough said......

i've been introduced to the world of pinning!

be still my heart

i could & have spent hours looking over

very creative recipes, clothes, sayings, crafts, photos.......

i could go on & on & on

but i won't

take a look yourself

the wonderful world of pinning
