Cedar, I want you to know that you're in my thoughts as you are facing these bumps in the road. And Judy I'm thinking of you too, and hope all is well at your house.
Hello to All!

So much to do right? I've been weeding, planting, mulching and all that kind of stuff these nice days, and still lots to do. Just can't work as hard as I did in my younger years.

Judy, so sorry about your brother, it just doesn't seem like it has been 6 months. Take good care of yourself.

A pair of wrens have built a nest between the wreath and the house near the front door, so we try to steer clear of there till the babies come. Lots of robins and red birds around too with nests. Nice to sit on the deck and watch nature when we have the time!

God Bless!

I have ordered some interesting seeds but looking at feedback, which I should have done first, I'm doubting that I'll ever get them. I'm ready to get out and do yard work but still has been too wet. Just now had another hard shower, so there goes today! Of course there is always plenty to do right here in the house! Have a nice weekend!

I stop by here frequently hoping to see you....sorry to hear about health problems....I'm keeping you in my prayers. Take good care, and as Helen says be sure to let us know how you are. This place hasn't been the same without your posts!

Helen, hello to you too, hope you are okay. This place has been too quiet, wonder why?

Max, I stop by here often but usually nobody home.
I always have a stack of books from the library waiting. Mostly nonfiction, but lately Dorothea Benton.
But now the vacuum cleaner calls, must get busy.
Great weekend to all!

Love their "sell yours here". The young man next door was interested in the remaining box so they're now in his hands.

Did you find any information about your fish mugs? I think I have a restaurant ware price guide. (If I haven't already tossed that too!) Will go take a look. Thanks again for your input.

Sturdy, like restaurant ware. Think it also says East Liverpool, would that be Ohio?

My DH loves Oreos, but wants the plain old ones. Last week I was amazed at all the different flavors there are, mint, cocoa, coconut, double stuff, chocolate stuff. Just one tiny section devoted to the original. Yep I love to dunk them too!

You're right, I don't see Allie's post. As I scroll down I see plenty of mine, I don't want to monopolize this space. Sorry if I am.

Yesterday I spent an hour looking at final sales on ebay and it wasn't good. In the old days I remember a Stangl bird that I had picked up at auction for fifty dollars (had a chipped wing) and it sold for over three thousand dollars. Folks thought I was crazy for paying 50 bucks for it. The only books that I feel I could part with now are the price guide books that I haven't consulted for years.

MAX, I just wanted to thank you for the restaurant ware info. A friend who has a booth in an antique mall told me that they don't see much of it anymore. And speaking of books, I know I must downsize my book collection, but as I scan them I'm finding it very hard to donate any of them. There isn't a room in this house, 4 bedrooms, family room, living room, DH's office and my sewing room also boxes in the basement, that do not house books. None are in the dining room. Yet! I did run across one yesterday, "The French" by Theodore Zeldin that I'm skimming today. Some chapters are interesting, others not so much.

Oh ALLIE, just noticed your post below! Glad to hear the root canal went well. And you can call me anything, Doris, Dori or even tutu! Always nice to hear from you. By the way, I love the new kitchen, DH is still having trouble adjusting to all the new appliances however. I do have pictures. Somewhere!

Hello to all, have a great weekend!

I can only find one piece here, should be more. This is a dessert dish, cream background with dark red flowers and trim. Just wondering if this is restaurant ware. I screwed up my digital this morning or I would post a picture.

Funny, can imagine that was a real traffic stopper! Lots of photos taken I'm sure.

Isaac has been very good to us here in St. Louis area. Started with a couple of nice slow rain showers then developed in to some much needed serious rain.

Max, you mentioned Weil Ware, a friend gave me a large vase several years ago in the Bamboo pattern and I just love it! I had forgotten the name but took down the vase from the mantel after reading your post, and sure enough it is marked Weil Ware.

Hope you all are having a good weekend!

What are you all reading these days? I'm wading through the new Madeline Albright book right now. It seems very long and detailed, but I'll finish it. Have also read most of Mary Alice Monroe books in the last couple of months.

The pecans were for my son in law, drat.

Doreen, by the way, these are very easy to make!

Oh well here goes: Just watch carefully after you turn them so they don't burn like mine did!

Spiced Pecans

1 egg white
2 tbs cold water
1/2 cup sugar
salt to taste (about 1/2 tsp)
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp allspice
1/8 tsp ground cloves
4 cups pecan halves

Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Combine everything but the nuts and mix well. Pour over the nuts and stir gently to be sure everything is well coated. Let rest 15 minutes. Turn out in a single layer on a greased baking pan (with low sides) and bake for 30 minutes. Carefully turn the nuts with a spatula and bake another 30 mins. Let cool, break apart and store in sealed containers. These keep for months.

Have been making them for 2 or 3 years now.

Well doggone it, I had a large pan of them in the oven last night, a phone call, and yep, they burned! Managed to salvage a few, they'll be my own treat later today!

I know, I know, we're all busy, busy, baking, shopping, tree trimming!

Our webmaster was kind enough to set this up for us but no one ever seems to be "at home". I know we're all busy, but we should try to check in once in a while! Right?

Busy day here today, and hurray, the sun is shining! Hope alla youse are okay, just holiday busy? Judy is busy with trees, others making cookies? I haven't started either, just agonizing over kitchen the redo.

Hi Doreen! When I was a kid we would go to Grandma's house on the farm and pick out a tree. There was a gorgeous blue spruce there, but we weren't allowed to cut that one down. Ever! They're such beautiful trees I couldn't say that I blamed her. It wasn't until I became older that I understood their value, especially in these parts.

Take care all, and here comes December with all its surprises. Weather that is. Doris

Doris

Not sure where our friends plan to go on Thursday.....guess it's supposed to be a surprise, and that's okay.

Really, we need our heads examined. One small thing that needed changing in the kitchen looks like will be an all out remodel, and at this time of year, eek! This is to start in 2 weeks so will do what baking I plan to do this week. I'm a little short in the energy department so better have my Wheaties!

Lots of folks missing here, Jan, Cedar, Doris, Allie. Where are you guys?

Doreen, Happy Belated Birthday!

Mim, So glad to hear you are feeling better!

And Judy! How many trees did you say? I'll do well to drag out my old Martha Stewart white feather tree, that I'm sure isn't as "white" as it was 6 or 7 years ago! DH would like us to get a real tree this year. With all the remodel going on whatever we have probably will be covered in sawdust!

Happy weekend to All! Do you all get flu shots? I'm debating, usually we don't. Doris#2
