Old Days, Fudge, All my Maters in a Row, Walk in the Woods

 Ran across this on FB....

Yes, I used one for about 15 yrs in printing, everyday. Took a chunk out of my thumb on it once. Oh the old days.

So Friday I tried something new. I tried my hand a five min microwave fudge. Oops, I just did not have enough chips to follow the directions so par to my course and normal for me I just added the ingredients and guessed at the amount. Fudge is Butterscotch and pretty tasty. Should have been a tad firmer but I figure at my guessing I added to much evaporated milk. Still yummy.

Friday I also made Parmesan crusted chicken. Pretty tasty. I also decided that I will be making a new chicken dish every week. They have to be simple, not a lot of ingredients cause I hate getting into lots of ingredients that I only use once. I like my cooking simple. But I am tired of the same ole, same ole. 

Friday night eating dinner at the bar I looked over at this site, all my maters in a row. HAHA...course with my camera in hand I felt if made a cool pic.

No photo description available.

So months ago I decided on what I was going to paint for my Christmas card. Yesterday I decided to draw it off. Here in a bit I am going to play in the den/craft room, try and organize it so that I can feel good about getting down there and painting. Last few yrs my card has been nice and cute but this time it will be silly and cute. I think we all need that these days. 

If anyone would like to send me their address for a Christmas card this yr please email me at pjack214@bellsouth.net. 

I want to help bring some good tidings and smiles. 

Now...if you are stressed, need an OUT.....go for a walk, in the woods. Enjoy.

Used one of those many times. I was lucky not to cut myself though. We have one by the way. Used it for yacht club dinner tickets. Works great.

Love the quote. Do this often.

Have a fabulous day, Pam. Scritches to all the babes. ♥

I went walking in the woods yesterday! I'll have to share pictures soon. And yes, I know those paper cutters. Taking a chunk of flesh must have hurt something awful. I never suffered such, I'm happy to say. Now I would kind of like to own one because my father sent loads of 8 1/2 by 11 sheets of paper (both lined notebook pages and colored construction paper) from my mother's stash of stuff. I find myself wanting to cut them into quarters for a more useful size. Maybe I'll look online. :) Be well!

I have one of those paper cutters but it's a newer version. The fudge looks good.
I made chicken the other day I just put chicken Brest in a pan and spread on a mixture of mayo, parmesan cheese and garlic powder then baked. It was easy and tasty. I'll send you an email because I would love one of your Christmas cards

I haven't made or eaten fudge in a very long time. I need to make some this Christmas...maybe. I'm sure your Christmas card will be wonderful:) I sure hope Christmas will be a good end to this year cause 2020 has not been kind to most of us. I went to my 5th funeral in a little over 4 weeks today...4 of the 5 were young people. I just pray 2021 will be much better but I have my fears!!!

I remember those behemoths back in the day. I saw my teachers wielding those. They've streamlined them a bit nowadays. I bought one for myself (for my Etsy shop). It's all plastic. Not as heavy. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not.

Your fudge looks to die for. I much prefer it to chocolate. I still use my big papercutter. Regularly.

Seasonal Changes with Lily, Moods, Snuggle Bunny, Blue Tail Skink gets out Alive

Image
 Seasonal changes are coming,  moving in slowly as always,  but coming.  Leaves are falling, not since fall is close but cause we  are so freak'n dry. Got a little rain shower on Wed. but, it did not even register in my rain gauge.    Spider webs are thick, grass is  crunchy, flowers are giving up  the fight, and Lily is doing her seasonal behavior as fall moves in. What would that be? She has started the curling up  behind my knee sort of  thing again and  wanting to be close. Not on me,  not in my lap, but close to me. This starts taking place every year around this time. Not only has that started, I think  she knows that time changes at some point. This week, she started waking me at 4. What she don't understand, it is not bouncing forward, so 4 will not be 5.... LILY, get with the program! haha.. Actually, I think the early rise has to do with me.  You see, with me having been  suffering the last 2.5 mon...

The Rest of Today

Image
After my trip to town today,  visit with the doc, stopping  and picking up breakfast I  headed home.  I had dropped Dakota off at mom's for the day. He was going  to spend the day  playing with Klohe and Cheyenne. While he was hanging at mom's Lily and I chilled all day.  So much to do but I can't seem to get it in gear. Later....I had an apt for a hair cut. But I left out early to stop  at the  Mystic Heart. I picked up some healing stones there.  Entering the store I read this sign... haha Then while in there I saw this sign. From there I headed to see  Kelley, my hair stylist. This is what I was shooting for. Course, it will look different on  me due to hair color and  texture of hair.  I am good with it. I got to Heads Up a bit early  so Kelley still had a young boy she was working on and his dad after h...
