My Weekend Work

Yes, some of my Weekend Work and so it continues today with Bread Baking in the Oven; hopefully, the weather will improve tomorrow so that we can get some more Hay-Making done...Not that I am anxious to do that type of work but I am hoping to have it done before our wonderful "Rug Hooker's Weekend" on Woody Island the last three days of September.  Fingers crossed, please...:)

Here are some of my photos:

The Beginning of my pickles









Then comes the back-breaking job of cutting all the veggies



 The Final Result...32 jars of "Million Dollar Pickles".
 Those are some great broccoli that we grew...All Organically Grown, of course.


 Cauliflower was plentiful this year, as well..Some of our Green Peas in the Background...More to come yet.

 One Morning's Grab....cherry tomatoes and cucumber....Green house was very co-operative this year...


















Sharing just a couple of pics. of my beautiful Lilies....
Hope you enjoy looking at those....Have a Great Day!!!

My Latest Project

I know a few of you have seen this post on my Facebook Page, but others have not and I would like to share.

My niece asked me to hook a mat for her with Newfoundland style houses and a Yellow Boat because her Dad fished for a great part of his life and that was the color he used.  Her Dad passed away about three years ago so the wheels began to turn in my head and I decided to ADD her Dad.  I searched her facebook page and found this picture of Him and thought this would be a good idea if I could hook it.





Anyways, this is the result.  What do you think???

Something Exciting...

Well, I have just landed from being on the wings of a Snowbird....yes, in Summer :)  You all know that I have some of my art displayed and for sale at a Museum in N.S....well, yesterday one of those sold, don't know which one yet,  and to no other than our great Singing Artist, ANNE MURRAY.  She has been one of my favorites since I was a teenager and still is, of course.  I am so very pleased and have been swamped with compliments, etc., since then.....Am I lucky, or what????
