Ok, let's start all over.

I have been super busy this last few months. We went on a great vacation to the dells in October for my birthday.

Did some great work on the house, painted the porches, painted the beam in the living room, and added a few new windows.

I am so happy with the progress on the house. We also painted the garage. Now as you can see we still have a few more window's left to do. Thirty One at my last count. We did seven this last time. We also want to put new screen doors on the house. I still would like to remodel the kitchen and do a few other projects. I have also been busy with Christmas projects. I am trying to make as many as I can for Christmas. I have made almost one for each person on my list. I won't go into any details here, but I will post pictures of everyone enjoying there gifts.

A Weekend of Sewing...

Look it's Lilly, helping us make her diappers.

 Soakers!

 Look I can't wait until I am big enough to wear my diapers!

I spent last weekend with my sister sewing diapers for my niece, they are so cute. I hope my sister enjoyed the day as much as I did. To spend time with my sister was so much fun, I hope we are able to do this again.

Happy Fat Tuesday

Well I hope everyone is enjoying Fat Tuesday, my little sister just stopped by my work with a raspberry Paczki. I could eat more than just one, but it would not do my diet any good, so it's only one for me. Well normally we would have Paczki on Fat Thursday but in the US you can only get them on Fat Tuesday, but if we were in Poland we would have had them on Fat Thursday. I remember my Grandmother making these treats, even though she was German. My fondest memories were learning to bake at my Grandmother's knee. We would bake cookies and bread. I also remember my mother and grandmother canning, and freezing like mad women trying to put enough in the pantry to last the whole winter and also get all the veggies done before the spoiled. I also remember my grandmothers fudge. I never did get this recipe from her while she was alive, but I was going thru some of the old church recipe books and I found a recipe with her name under it. What do think this recipe was? Well it the the fudge recipe. Let me tell you I was screaming and crying at the same time. If you still have your grandmother with you, let me give you some free advice, love and learn what ever you can from her because you will never know when you will lose her.
