Merry Christmas

We had a lovely time with family and friends
at our Goddaughter's house on Christmas Eve

Christmas Day it was just the three of us
here in our little corner of the Garden State.
We read, watched movies and played with legos.
How did you spend your day?
We intended to attend the re-enactment of
Washington's Crossing of the Delaware, or go
to the movies, but it was cold out and warm inside
and we had food and new toys....lol.
You know how that goes.

Happy Thanksgiving

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday.
We were just us three this year and it all went pretty smoothly.Farmer Dad picked some nice fresh carrots in the morning..
I roasted them along with beets, onions, and butternut squash also all grown here.
We served them along with our turkey, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, dressing, cranberry sauce,
brussel sprouts , rolls and gravy. Desert was pumpkin pie
and vanilla ice cream for the Princess who does not like pie. Here I am making a plate for the little one, and here's what my plate looked like as
I sat down to eat...

I hope your holiday was lovely and want you all to know how much I
appreciate you being in my life! Here is some more autumnal goodness
that I am thankful for...





Time has been flying by here in our corner of the Garden State
and I have had very little blog time. :-(
I am trying to get back into the swing of things and can't wait to visit you all and see what you have been up to.
Happy Thanksgiving ((big hugs)) KateinNJ

Down the Shore

Saturday found us driving down to the Sandy Hook area to pick


up some vintage linens a wonderful lady posted for free on Craigslist.



Because we were so close, we stopped off at Sandy Hook for a little
shell hunting. Princess was actually hoping to find some "Mermaid's Purses",
but we only found crab shells and such. It was gorgeous..and COLD.




Seriously cold. Fortunately there was a bathroom open, but we did not




stay long, you know because it was cold. Farmer Dad was really not dressed for it,





because it was quite warm up near us (50's).He doesn't like cold anyway..ever.
The wind was whipping us about, but we headed home with joy in our hearts.


that only comes from spending some time down near the water.
