The Great Onion Harvest...

...Charlie Brown. That is what's going on at our house right now..


Hub planted rows and rows of Onions and now they are needing to be pulled..a big wind came thru a few weeks ago and knocked all the tops over and they have stopped growning..

So my part in all this is to take off the tops and roots and put them in the panty hose to store them. We did this last year and had enough onions until January this year!..Onions, either you love'em or you don't~ As you can tell, we love'em

We put this Martin house up a couple of weeks ago too..In hopes of having visitors. They eat more than their weight in mosquitoes...But it may take up till next year for them to really settle in..

This is round 2 of the Killdee nest in the driveway..

Something ate her last one, and we thought it ate her too..but maybe not~ Been watching this over the last week, first one egg, then in a few days and other, and so on until there are now 4...

Have a great Monday!

I'm lovin' this

You know that feeling when you spy something great at the thrift????? that little thrill that you get in the pit of your stomach??? that little electric bolt that tingles your fingers??? Well, I had it yesterday at Goodwill!!!! Found these awesome French vocab cards!!!!



They were barely even used!! Hardly out of order and with the info still in the box!!! YUMMY! I've lusted after them for ages on Ebay and on other people's blogs..and now I have my own stash!!! MY OWN for only ....get this......ninety nine CENTS!! yes! under a dollar, not 15 or 20 like they go for on Ebay...just ninety nice nine cents!!!

I put this on Etsy yesterday..I hope someone else loves it too...the photo turned out great and I found out some things while doing these shots...and I'll be doing the same set ups again for this jewelry stuff...

later,t

Feelin' like somepin's done

Slowly I've been adding things to Etsy..I closed up shop back in March there...after much prayer, I opened it back up..

Some of these things are going to be added:

This Fun Time little shrine needed a face lift, so it got a new pieced together necklace...

This little ornie was fun to do:

Love those Art Chix images..I need to get some more..she has such fun things..And the vintage anagrams spell out the JOY, I have to make sure and use them more...what good are they doing me other than looking pretty in jars??

This one I'm freaking excited about:

Awesome?? or what?? German Scrap, Anagarms and a flying bird...it's fairly large too..this one may have to go to the bead store with me to find somepin' special for it..what do you think of it?

Here is a group shot of some of the finished solder pieces..Cindy~ yours is peeking out from the top~

Ya'll have a good Wednesday~
