October happenings

I found this cookbook at one of my favorite thrift stores this week.


Remember the movie about Julia Childs and the girl who cooked her way through the book?  I would love to do the same thing with this book.  Every recipe in there (almost), I would like to try.  Plus, the book has lots of pretty pictures in it!


My husband and I visited the Amish country many years ago and I would love to go back again.  I just love everything about it.  I love to read Amish wisdom books and Amish cookbooks.   I only paid .50 cents for this book... a happy treasure, for sure.


Daddy's baby goats are growing.  He is still nursing these two with baby bottles.  They are so cute.... they will follow him around, into his garage and prop up  on a table to see the bottles .  Adorable little things!


I'm planning a visit to see this little girl next week.  Her mommy loves thrifting just as much as I do, so we should have a fun week.  Annabelle picked out her own 'costume' while they were in Goodwill a couple days ago.


I'm almost embarrassed to share this, but do you see this pattern?  This is one of the many that I own, that I purchased for .99 cents, a long time ago from Hobby Lobby.  I never used it, never even took it out of the envelope.  Imagine my surprise when I saw how much people were paying for them on ebay.  So.... I listed mine and sold it for $45.00.  I was a little embarrassed to take someone's money , but now I have ebay money in my account to buy something else.  ha!

I've been under the weather this week and still don't feel the best.  I've been debating all week if I should see the doctor, so I can be well for my trip to TN next week.   As a nurse, I tend to wait things out, but now I am stressing about it, wondering if I should go ahead and go.  I guess there's always tomorrow.  Please pray that I can feel better!
