A little something somethin over the clothesline

How are all of you Happy Homebuddies!



Welcome in, pull up a chair here in the bungalow kitchen, have a piece of coffeecake, let's chew the fat for a bit. 

I got that cupboard down to essentials, freed up about 5 glass jars which will be saved. Do you save jars?

I'm having a fresh cup of coffee while we chat, supper is done and I have a moment to relax, so glad you stopped in to visit. I did make bisquits again today, getting much better at it.

 No more hockey pucks.

I mixed up a little spice mix I saw. The recipe calls for it to be added to the coffee once poured, but I find it leaves a sludge of spice, so I add the dry spices directly to the coffee in the coffee maker. My son really likes it, I do to and it is somewhat good for us as #1 no preservatives or extra whatever, #2 these spices are good for a few things which I'm sure you have all heard about.

3 TBS cinnamon

1 TBS ground Ginger

2 tsp ground Nutmeg

1tsp ground Allspice

1 tsp ground Cloves

I suppose you could add to just about anything for that fall loveliness.

I'm still working on the basket, it is on hold for a moment because I'm working up something with yarn at the moment and I switch back and forth to give my hand a break.


All is well, hope you are as well. 

Be blessed in your day, be of good cheer, and do something good!

I love those pictures. Yes, I do collect jars. My old cupboard on the front porch is full of them. I need to clean out cabinets and cupboards again. Thank you for your comment about our Eli. It's a hard thing to go through. I understand how you are still missing yours. It is heartbreaking.

I do keep jars and I probably will never use them all but I have a cupboard where they all line up and wait to be needed.
Your spice mix sounds good. It has all the spices I put in Apple Crisp/Apple Pie.

I'm hoping to be back to crochet time, now that most of the tomatoes are canned. I have made a trip to Hobby Lobby and brought home some cotton yarn balls. We shall see. I also bought a few small ceramic pumpkin lights to decorate the house with.
