Keep a Shinin' in June

Oops! June 15th already. My son and I say every evening the day has just zipped by. He starts work for a different company soon... still telecommuting (work from home) and still his same work place that contracts jobs to many clients.

I had fun making a stacked album. Each page flips out for journaling or photos.


We have a doe with twin fawns who comes right in to the yard. I missed one fawn and was super far away.     When they're in the yard, I can see the spots on the babies!


This year won't catch me like 2019 when we have the first snow. Traditionally I prefer fresh peas frozen, but these 99-cent/quart strawberries from Aldi's will be fine! Last year I just couldn't get past the need for the produce to be farm grown. That's so funny... I remember feeling let-down on my first big snow because I didn't have that tie with summer preserved.




Two of my friends and I connected with Zoom for this bible study. It was really awesome to try new things. I actually have skyped only once or face-timed. I am excited to do another Beth Moore study. It has been a minute.



Would you eat biscuits and gravy from this breakfast bar? I might! I am pretty hungry! This looks rather gross, but not sure why! lol



Time for a little snack... What have you been cooking? I made a brisket and some cauliflower and carrots with bacon and cheese yesterday. The instant pot is a game changer for me in making brisket. I cook it 100 minutes with a great rub and one cup water... from partially frozen. Then I just set the whole thing in the fridge overnight. Then I slice it against the grain with an electric knife, put in empty pot and add a bottle of bbq sauce or a cup or so of my homemade bbq sauce with a cup of water or broth. I pressured it again for 10 minutes and let it come down from pressure naturally until ready to eat. Boom!


Have a good week! 




Whimsy and Hugs!

Glad to see you are doing well! I am still on the fence with the instapot. And I have to say that the gravy fountain is a little scary. On the other hand, your keepsake book is gorgeous!

I love your keepsake book. And oh, those strawberries look fabulous. I think we all PREFER fresh -- but we go with what we must and if it tastes good, all the better!
