  • Happy 100th Birthday, Olivia de Havilland!

    On this day in 1936, Gone With The Wind by Margaret Mitchell was published. Supposedly, its sales are only second to the Bible. It’s one of my favorite books. I’ve read it more times than I can count. And the movie is still my all-time favorite. The last remaining cast member is Olivia de Havilland who played…

  • Happy Dairy Month!

    It’s Dairy Month! Don’t have cookies without a glass of cold milk! Yum!

  • Just because…

    …I like this quote. And it’s so very true. You do have to do this sometimes. The world wants so much, takes so much, demands so much. And you give, give, give to everyone. But it’s okay to focus on you, take time for you, reconnect with you, put you first.   “And every day,…

  • Summer is finally here!

    I took this photo at the end of May. Miss Tess – that’s my horse – is so happy to have fresh green grass instead of winter hay. Yum! Yum! It’s back to grazing all day with tail swishing, ears twitching, feet stomping away various insects, feeling the delicious warmth on her back, the cool…

  • Once Upon a Time on May Day…

    …we used to deliver May Day Baskets and receive them. My mom would buy paper Dixie cups and colored pipe cleaners for  handles and we would fill the small baskets with popcorn and candy (a favorite was M&Ms) and then we’d deliver them to family and friends. You’d knock on the door and run away.…

  • It’s been 24 hours since…

    …I heard the news about Prince. He was an incredible talent and gifted artist and I enjoy many of his songs, but the reason I’m a Prince fan has nothing to do with his music. I loved the fact he continued to reside in his home state of Minnesota (mine, too), despite his fame and fortune and…
