Well~behaved women rarely make history. ~ Laurel Thatcher Ulrich

Lead me not into temptation; I can find the way myself. ~ Rita Mae Brown

As a child, it seemed that Christmas would never get here.. as an adult, it seems that it is here quicker and quicker each year! I hope you all have the very best Christmas ever... try looking at it through the eyes of a child. The magic is still there, we just have to look a little harder to find it. Try to keep the magic through out the year. Each tree is a link to a page.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!








This Way To Christmas



days 'til Christmas!





Wisdom From Grandma's Cookbook!

This cookbook is a family treasure, and I somehow ended up with it. I can remember my sisters and I reading this book at home and laughing about how times have changed. This is my way of sharing it with them... I hope you will enjoy it today as we did many years ago.

This is my very favorite poem, I didn't know him, but I like his work!

STOPPING BY THE WOODS ON A SNOWY EVENING

I have found another one of my favorite poems.. I don't remember the name of the poem being what it is.. but we all know it, and I love it! I guess we sang it. I didn't really think of it as being a poem. Anyway.. here it is...

WHAT I LEARNED BEFORE THE AGE OF FIVE

It seems like we learn a lot of important things at an early age. These are a few things that have stuck with me through the years. I'll add things as I think of them, but not on an everyday basis...

RECIPES FOR FRIENDS

A good friend asked me for some of the recipes I use, so to keep her from losing them, and to keep me from having to write them out, I'll put them here so she always knows where they are.(This is in progress...)
