I hope you all had a terrific Easter! We did! The kids were so cute hunting for the plastic eggs! And the candy! I'm glad they went home afterward! (All that sugar!) The Kombucha tea turned out delicious! And so did the ginger ale! I will definitely be making these again! I'm trying to get to make soap again, but I will have to move that to next week. I had two little visitors yesterday, and they will be back tomorrow to spend the night! I am getting more used to them being around, but not enough to do some of the things I do. I want to make a baby sling to put the little one in when I'm working in the kitchen cause she wants to be held all the time. Hopefully I can find a quick pattern and turn it out before they get here tomorrow! (Not?) We'll see.
There's so much I want to do! I have so many recipes to try, and I also want to weed my flower beds! I want to plant grape-vines, and help the hubs dig a well! I also need to turn the rest of the raised beds in preparation for planting! I know these things will need time to be accomplished and eventually they will get done! I'm just glad to have recipes my family and I enjoy and can make on a regular basis; and good health and soundness of mind to do these other things! I will try to keep you updated on what tasks get accomplished each week. Thanks for reading, following and commenting! Blessings from Bama!

| Fudge Pie! My oven isn't cooking right so this had to go back in and cook some more. It turned out delicious! I just have to set the temp forty degrees higher than what it's supposed to cook. |
Wow looks like you had a nice visit with your family. Fun times too - eggs on the ears and eyes and all. I'm going to look for one of those steamers - you really like it? The pie looks sooo good...especially tonight as I'm out of points and still want to snack....I think I have to be happy with some fruit...waaaa Blessings from Wisconsin.
ReplyDeleteHi Jacky! Yes, fun times! I really like the steamer! I've had it a long time and have only started using it regular this past year! So easy to steam my veggies! Oh, that pie! It's ALL MINE! Hope you enjoy your fruit, it's got to chocolate for me tonight! Thanks for stopping by!

Yes, almost garden time. Your Easter pictures are so nice, I see some smiling faces. I know the kids always have a wonderful time finding eggs.
ReplyDeleteYou are always so busy. Looking forward to seeing your garden. Enjoy your Sunday.
Thanks for hanging out at Back to the Source! I don't think my blog notifies people of follow-up comments, so I thought I'd say hello here! I like the looks of your homestead...can't wait to have one of those some day. My parents have a small one outside of Bham; fruit trees, berry bushes, new chicken coop, etc. Alabama is an awesome place for homesteads with its long growing seasons.
ReplyDeleteHi Elsie! Thanks for stopping by! I love that you are doing what you're doing while waiting for 'some day'! I would love to meet your parents! Sounds like you had an awesome upbringing! We love Alabama!
