Time for Thursday Favorite Things Party

Welcome to Thursday Favorite Things Party

Thursday Favorite Things. Share NOW. #linkyparty. #TFT #thursdaayfavoritethings #eclecticredbarn

Happy Thursday dear friends. It seems as though this heat wave is all over. I saw that it was hotter in Boston yesterday than it was in Miami. That's crazy!  I know we are still hot. However, we seem to be the ones having all of the rain. Everyday it storms and there is no hurricane around. 

It seems that the weather is on my mind these days, what can I say. I hope you ae having good weather. I wish I could send some rain to those who need it. We don't need any more. I must admit, I am tired of all the rain.

Enjoy the rest of your week.

Welcome dear friends.  I hope your weekend has been wonderful. We have had a lot of rain but finally today, the temps cooled down a little.  Even the dogs were delighted with the cooler weather. They spent more time outside than they have had in days.  I even took a long walk without getting a heat stroke. 

I hope your weather has cooled down some too. It seems at though hot is everywhere.  Enjoy your Sunday.

Happy Thursday dear friends. We are still having some very hot temps here in central Florida. The rain comes but does nothing to bring the temps down. It has been a long run of hot days. The heat index is the worst - with them being in the 3 digits. Oh well, there is nothing we can do about the weather!

How is your weather this summer? Do you have any vacation plans made? We are heading to Vermont the first week in August. I can't wait to leave. 

Enjoy the rest of your week.

Fresh Peach Hand Pies

Fresh Peach Hand Pies


It is peach season in Georgia.  My BIL brought me peaches the other day and I was so excited. There is just something so delicious and tasty about Georgia peaches.

I am always torn about what to make first. Of course I eat one first, that's a given, next bake with them.  Up first was some peach hand pies.  I few of the peaches were ripe and needed to be used,  so hand pies came to mind. Little pockets of "yumminess".

Happy Thursday friends. I want to thank all of you who sent such sweet wishes concerning our loss of Caleigh. I really appreciate your thoughtfulness.

This week has been better. The 4th was nice with family. I went to spend the night with my best friend down in Miami. It had been almost 2 months since I had seen her and it was long over due. We had a nice time catching up. 

I hope you had a nice 4th and that you are enjoying your week.

Happy Thursday friends. I have a heavy heart this week. I lost my dachshund Caleigh early Monday morning. It was so sudden. One minute she was sitting and the next she was having a hard time breathing. We rushed her to the emergency vet. They put her on oxygen but it did little good. 

Xrays showed that her heart was enlarged and cancer in her lungs. They think she had a massive heart attack. There was nothing we could do. We also have Louie who is her baby. He is so lost without her. They have been together every day for over 9 years. Caleigh is on the left and Louie on the right. This was a trip to the Dairy Queen with Daddy a few weeks ago.

We are just heart broken. She was only 12 and too soon to loose her. Any one who has lost a beloved pet knows the feeling.

This week I pick some 4th of July crafts, decor and recipes. Enjoy!

4th of July Pallet Blocks

4th of July Blocks

I started to decorate with holiday items for Memorial Weekend. I made some stars and flags for a centerpiece. You can see those here

I decided to add to my collection by making some wooden blocks.  I made one blue with a star and 2 with red stripes. (they look on the pink side but are really red)

4th of July Blocks. Share NOW. #4thof July. #holidaydecor #patrioticdecor #craft #eclecticredbarn #palletboarddecor

These were easy to make. I used pallet boards to make mine. You can use any scrap of wood since they are not very large. 

I used one board cut from a pallet to cut all three of my blocks. 


How to make 4th of July blocks:
pallet board
paint
painters tape
washers
twine

1. Pallet boards are the right size.  You can use any board you have and make them whatever size you want, but mine are 3 1/2  X 5. Cut 3 pieces

2. I cut the corners off of each piece at one end. I cut them at 45 degrees. Sand lightly.

3. I painted one of the blocks blue and then used some sand paper to rough it up. I painted both sides.

4. I cut a star out of card stock paper and then traced it on the blue block. I painted the star white. 

5. For the red stripe ones, I painted the blocks white on both side. Once dried, I taped of some stripes and then painted them red. Once they were dried and the tape was removed, I sand the blocks a little.

6. I drilled a hole near the top so I could add twine. I found these rusted washers so I glued them to one side. (I did not put them on both sides)

They were easy to make and make a great addition to my 4th f July decorations.

Happy Thursday friends. I am heading back home today. I had a wonderful visit with my Mom. It is always difficult to leave her. I wish I could bring her to live with me, but she wants to stay in PA. 

I also enjoyed spending time with my baby sister. We shopped a little. I found a couple of great purses at the City Mission. You can never have too many, especially when they are brand names and practically new. 

I hope all is well with you and that your week has been great.

You're The Star - Family Feature Week

Welcome to You're The Star - Family Feature Week

Happy Monday. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. Mine has been so nice here with my Mom. The weather has been awesome. So cool compared to Florida. 

We had a girls day today, my Mom, my sister and myself. We went to church, out to lunch and then the cemetery. 

I hope you have a great week ahead.
