whats new on Saturday
Baked 5 doz. date pinwheel cookies that I had prepared yesterday afternoon, did up a big batch of ham rollups, and getting ready to make a dip that is made from hard boiled eggs, finely shredded cheddar cheese and seasonings, green onion, and held together with just a bit of low fat real mayo -- it's delicious and good protein. Will also make a half batch of carmel corn (to give for gifts)...then I am done with the sweet stuff. I can't remember having the energy I've had this year to do all this cooking and baking -- AMAZING!
Killing time checking websites so I can start on my water....
We have snow - it's very pretty, but I'm glad I don't have to get out in it.....staying inside and after I'm finished in the kitchen will relax and do some more cross stitch.
Have a safe and special Saturday.

Done! Your Ticker:
hey pat...you will never guess what i found in the grocery store the other night!!!! CHEX MIX "MUDDY BUDDIES" its like puppy chow!!!! its a small bag and was $2.88 so we bought that and it will be enough for me and rick....but i will keep the recipe you sent me for when i need a larger batch.... ;-) (weighed this morning and i did NOT like what i saw!!! OMG!!! i am up 20 pounds!!!! YIKES!!!!!)
the pinwheel cookies are really good tasting!! mom and i used to make them and then she had a better idea...make them drop cookies instead of rolling out and cutting them....short cuts from mom...LOL didn't look as pretty but they still tasted the same!!
wish i knew how to cross stitch...reading directions do not help me at all...its all greek to me!!! sighs....
have a good day!!!
hugs

Thank you again for all the kind comments about the cards. 'Nuff said.
Prayers for a gal that works for me at the part time job. Her name is Paula. She has been living with this guy for 8 years, married to him the last two. Yesterday afternoon he kicked her out. Said they need a separation. She is so sweet. Goes to school full time and then comes to work for 4 hours. All this without a car, taking the bus everywhere. Which isn't easy around here. She probably spends 2 hours a day waiting for or riding the bus.
GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!
