http://petalsandthistles.blogspot.com/2011/10/wow.html
Ramblings along the road of life. Saturday, October 1. That's the word that comes to mind when you go outside right now. Wow! Last night was a perfect evening for a walk at Lake Bemidji State Park. Those lights across the lake in the photo below are the football stadium where the Bemidji Lumberjacks were playing their Homecoming game- they won! We thought about going to the game but I'm glad we went for a walk instead! October 1, 2011 at 1:37 PM. Your photos are stunning! October 6, 2011 at 5:13 PM.

petals and thistles: August 2011
http://petalsandthistles.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Ramblings along the road of life. Monday, August 22. I think that is what our kids are yelling lately, at least to themselves. But for me it's more like SAAAAAAAADNEEEEEEESS! Letting go of your kids is one of those thistles in life that ya gotta do but gosh it is painful, mixed in with exciting, and a roller coaster of emotions for this momma. Last week Leanne passed her driver's test. Here she is- one happy girl! I made sure he had a photo of us so he doesn't forget his family :). Nevermind that he's on...

Ramblings along the road of life. Saturday, April 17. Well, I did it. I put away my turtlenecks. I know. I know what you are thinking.it's a bit early isn't it? After all, it's only April 17th. Well, what can I say, I am a risk-taker! I still have all my scarves out, however, just in case my neck complains too much. So here's the extent of my "spring cleaning" so far. It feels good, doesn't it? And here's the bags of clothes that are going somewhere else to take up space.yah hoo! Links to this post.

Ramblings along the road of life. Thursday, February 9. Extreme Makeover Kitchen Edition. Gosh, it has been a LONG time since I posted on here. Life gets crazy I guess. I get lazy I guess. Plus, I discovered Peggle. Two to three weeks max, right? Here's the before pictures. Our new stove is in the before photo). Started out painting the ceiling in living, dining, kitchen and entry. Possibly the least favorite part of the whole thing. : /. Then tearing out all the old cabinets. Only two and a half months ...

Welcome to My Garden: Canning Tomatoes Step by Step
http://kathi-mygarden.blogspot.com/2007/09/canning-tomatoes-step-by-step.html
Welcome to My Garden. Thursday, September 06, 2007. Canning Tomatoes Step by Step. In the latest of what has become my Tomato Thursdays, I am canning diced tomatoes. To peel the tomato - dip in boiling water. Then immediately plunge in ice water. The skins should peel off very easily. Bring diced tomatoes to a boil. Sterilize jars in boiling water bath. Necessary equipment - a jar lifter and jar funnel. Boil jar lids to sterilize. Put jar lids and rims on jars. Instead of letting the filled jars cool off...

Welcome to My Garden: August 2013
http://kathi-mygarden.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Welcome to My Garden. Friday, August 23, 2013. It is so nice to be harvesting daily from my garden. This is just the veggies that I picked today - I also picked raspberries and plums and I'm about to go and pick enough apples for a crisp. Today's harvest included a few sugar snap peas - they are really done and I need to pull the plants up but since there were a few on there I picked them, pole beans - both yellow and green, tomatoes - both roma and grape, cucumbers and bell peppers. The plums are later ...

Welcome to My Garden: Apple Pie Bars
http://kathi-mygarden.blogspot.com/2013/09/apple-pie-bars.html
Welcome to My Garden. Monday, September 30, 2013. Another use for Apples! These are so good. I made these using fresh apples (since I have so many right now) but they would be equally as good made using my apple pie filling. This would be good to take to a pot luck. As usual this recipe is gluten and dairy free - just substitute regular flour and omit the xanthan gum and use real milk and butter if you prefer. This is one recipe that may have a lot of steps but it won't disappoint. In a small bowl:.

Welcome to My Garden: GFCF Apple Streusel Bread
http://kathi-mygarden.blogspot.com/2013/10/gfcf-apple-streusel-bread.html
Welcome to My Garden. Friday, October 04, 2013. GFCF Apple Streusel Bread. I made this last night - it is all gone already and my family is begging me to make it again. It reminds me of my childhood in the early 1960s when my Mom would have Coffee Klatches with the neighbor ladies. Sweet breads like this and coffee were the perfect combination while the women caught each other up on neighborhood news. If you are not gluten free - just substitute regular flour and omit the xanthan gum from the recipe.

Welcome to My Garden: March 2014
http://kathi-mygarden.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Welcome to My Garden. Saturday, March 29, 2014. The 2014 growing season has begun! There might still be snow outside but the kid and I were anxious to begin gardening. He is so much more helpful now than he was when he was little. His tags might be hard for some to decipher but I can read them so I'm not going to complain. Today we planted Roma tomatoes, Brussels Sprouts, Broccoli, Sweet Bell Peppers, Hot Pepper and Mini Sweet Bell Peppers. Can't wait for them to sprout! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
