she cooks in a crock pot some.
If you don't like a kick then
use crushed tomatoes.
I like the kick.


Sunday I made potato soup
for James bday party but
I also made James in own
batch of 
Blueberry
Firecrackers!


James
named the Blueberry cake
he loves so much, the
Blueberry Bomb.
Julie's cousin Lisa
saw these cup cakes I 
made and called them
Blueberry Firecrackers 
since they were smaller
than the cake.

Monday I saw the first
site of daffodils,
spring is around the 
corner. 


I decided that I would
work on another afghan.
It is well on its
way. 


Gotta pick up more
yarn to get this done.

The soup looks good and so easy too. Then again the blueberry firecrackers are looking mighty delicious also.
Hooray for daffodils.

The Rest of Today

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 him. I had to snap a pic of Kelley making sure that I got

Well, what was I thinking? HAHA After laying on my couch in so much pain all summer, I knew moving closer to  Amber was the thing to do, The timing of finding my dream home was off. However, Two days of Open House and I have a contract. Selling as is, minor repairs.  Inspection to be done after  the work in the  den and BR is done. The process of getting here while just a couple of weeks of healing was a challenge. My daughter was a big  help weekend before  last. I just collect to many projects that I  never get around to and that has to stop. I have to say, last time  was easier, I had moved into my childhood home before I sold the other, so it was empty when sold. EASIER. I hate moving so close to Christmas but it is  what it is. Fall seems to have made it to us the past week. I am surprised, we were losing so many leaves due to no rain,  glad to have some color. In between packing, cleaning, repairs and life in general, I have  managed to do a few things. I taught a paint class an
