I lurve YouTube!

~*~

There are days that I just lurve living in 
this time of technology to enjoy things
such as this....

I was surfing YouTube last night looking for
a memory and I so excited to find this one because 
it reminds me of when we saw Kent & Candy Christmas at a local church when I was pregnant with my girl.  
He personally prayed over us and she 
sang many gospel songs for everyone.

This particular song just slays me every time.
Enjoy!

Inspired

~*~

Inspired!


This is the movie that started it.
My kids and I lurve it.
Good old fashioned story of family, lurve,
and the County Fair!

My Son said, "Mom, you could do that."
I replied, "Do what Son?"
He said, "Go to the fair and win a ribbon."
I said, "What would I enter to be judged?"
He said, "Your Pig Candy or something else yummy. 
It doesn't matter, it's all good!"

That got me thinking...
and thinking some more...
regardless of the outcome it would be fun, we'd make a memory
and of course I could blog about it! ha ha

So that's why I want these books for my birthday or Christmas...
gotta know who my competition is! 

    

So in the upcoming year,
I will research, go over my own recipe box and decide what to enter in the Baked Goods category in our next local county fair.  If it wins, I can move on to the State Fair level.

Do you go to your county fair or state fair?

A French Press Coffee Maker!


I lurve my cup (pot) of Tea
but I prefer coffee first thing in the morning!

Now for some coffee humor!
