Something Yummy


 Hello!

Hope everyone is well.

Today I have an oldie but yummy recipe 
for you.

This is a good one for a small or large 
crowd.  Adjust ingredients as needed
for your group.

Veggie Salsa

2 15 oz cans diced tomatoes, drain well and 
reserve the liquid
1 med green pepper
1 clove garlic
1/2 C red onion
5 green onions
1/2 C cilantro
1 can shoe peg white corn
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 can black eyed peas, rinsed and drained
3/4 C zesty Italian dressing

Finely chop all veggies. Combine all 
ingredients, adding enough reserved
liquid from tomatoes to desired 
consistency. 

Serve with tortilla chips.

Enjoy!!


This is a fave of Mr. Ken's!

Holiday Week


 

Well friends, here we are, the week before 
4th of July.

Time is flying, who is ready? Um...not me!
But beginning tomorrow things will start
happening. I am hoping to do several posts 
this week too.

Do you decorate for the 4th?
I do though not sure how much will get done
this year. Have tried to get flags outside but
that is usually when it decides to rain.
Hopefully we get a break from that.
I have several inside decorations that I would 
like to get out so we'll see.

Hope everyone has a great week!

Summer! WHAT?!

Happy Summer!



Popping in with a quick post.

A Summer bucket list. 
You will probably need to click 
on it to enlarge. Hopefully you 
will find something fun to 
celebrate Summer.

Here are some of the things I 
hope to do:

Go for a walk at night
Ride bikes
Go to the Lake (for the day)
Go to the movies
Swing at the Park  ; )
Have a picnic
Play games
Build a bonfire (in the firepit)
Roast Marshmallows (and  make
Smore's) 

We have planted veggies +flowers
We visit with our neighbors ALL
the time.
I will see my Cousins on Saturday
meeting them for dinner after a 
year of not being able to gather 
together!

What will you do this summer?

Most of this is geared for kids so 
have fun with the Grands or nieces
and nephews too. BUT don't let that
stop you, let us know what you may
do!!

Monday...


 
Good Morning, I hope your day
has started off well.

We had a great weekend ! 
Our neighborhood had it's annual 
Garage Sales, we did not participate
this year. I did go to some of the sales
though. One of my favorite sales was 
the . 25 sale my neighbor was having.
Everything except the large furniture 
was a whopping quarter.! Forgot to 
take a pic but I picked up a nice size 
universal calendar that you use a dry 
erase marker on, two very nice vintage 
tablecloths--yep vintage, some baking 
pans and a white porcelain like Holy 
Family.

BUT the BIG score for the day was that 
cutie in the picture above! Wanna guess
how much...I'll wait. FREE!! Yes, indeed
friends. I said FREE. It was on her curb
with a bunch of other stuff. I cannot tell
you how excited I am ! Looking forward 
to putting this on my porch this winter.
I did tease Mr. Ken that we might have 
"Christmas in July" just so I can put it 
out. He looked at me as though I was 
kidding. HA! HA!

This week will be busy around here. I am 
working at Bible School three days plus
getting ready for family to arrive on 
Friday. We are all going to the Royals 
game that night. On Thursday and Friday 
I will finish prep for them. Saturday we 
will do fun stuff and on Sunday we will 
all go down to my brother in laws to 
celebrate Father's Day.

Whew I'll need a rest on Monday.
Mr. Ken took some vacay time next 
week so who knows what will take 
place!

I hope to be back again but not sure
with this crazy schedule.

Random Thoughts



Happy Wednesday!

It is HOT here! I am not a fan.
Spring left very fast.   :(

We need some rain, getting a bit dry.

Ice Cream is becoming a daily thing.

Who gets a sore throat in June? I am
blaming the air conditioner and the 
heat.

I love 70's music.

Do not miss the early alarm to get 
up.

Salads are my fave in the Summer.

Told you it was random. :)


I'll be back soon with Part 2 of our 
Oklahoma trip.

Good Morning...

I have a little "life hack" for you today.

Keep one of these in your car and use 
it to carry multiple items. I use mine 
for groceries. Trips to Target, Wal-
Mart and I have even used it at the 
Garden center.

Saves on multiple trips back and 
forth and it helps my back too.
As long as I don't load it down. :)

There you have it, my nugget for 
the day.

Enjoy!

One of Those Fun Days



 Hello and Happy Friday!

Today is a big day! 
It is National Doughnut Day!!

Apparently the day was established in 
1938 to honor The Salvation Army 
Donut Lassies. These were ladies that 
served treats to soldiers during World 
War I. Traditionally celebrated on the 
first Friday of June.

Who knew??

I'll be honest here and say I LOVE 
DOUGHNUTS!!!

Chocolate covered ones
Long Johns
Crullers
Twists
Cream filled
Glazed
Cinnamon Rolls too

One of our fave places to get these 
yummies is at our local Quick Trip gas 
station. Oh MY! Love them from small 
Mom and Pop shops too.

How about you? What's your take on 
doughnuts?

Happy Weekend!
