Chit Chat over the clothesline

Well Hello Happy Homebuddies!

How are all of you? 



I am doing ok, just have not posted anything since I think June. 

Time has just flown by & I'll lost track of it. 

It has been a very hot summer, looking very much forward to the fall. 

We took a quick trip to Amish yesterday, stopping at the bulk store for some baking supplies as I continue to prep for wintertime. Cornstarch, BakingPowder, beeswax for candles next year. I've already made candles for this year. 

Now is a good time to begin preparation for the winter season. Anticipating and preparing for any unplanned event going forward, weather, supply chain etc. I like to shop bulk and store things in glass jars I save to keep them fresh, plus at a glance you know exactly how much you have.  

We did stop at the antique shop, I've put myself on a self-imposed spending ban, after this trip and I have decided that until I can find more room/space. I should not purchase anything else.     

Here is what I purchased yesterday. 

Electric Skillet (Hoover) stainless steel

2 swan pots

I've crochet a little bit, made another stove apron for the fall. 

I will be posting again with pictures, just wanted to get this video up to catch up.

Be of Good Cheer!

It's great to see you back although I understand how busy life can get. Prep for winter is such an August thing. I think of my Mom and how she canned and froze enough for all of us. Some lucky women at the time had a stove set up in a porch or shed but Mom had to use her wood stove even in the heat of summer.
Is this your first electric skillet or are you replacing an old one/ My DH still laments the fact that we got rid of our old one. I used it a lot but in the end it took up too much room (if I remember rightly it was a family sized one).
