Secrets from Louisiana

So glad you have stopped by for a visit. We have many secrets here in Louisiana. We are a quilters haven because of all the interesting things we have in our environment to see, smell,taste and feel. Our flowers are like perfume in the evening and the colors explode in your eyes. Our seafood is the best in the world and is bountiful from the Gulf.

The palette is non stopping.

We Pulled Up The Rope

We had to cut the tie rope so we could stay afloat. What a terrible day, wind , rain,lightning, thunder more sideways rain, trees swaying and a tornado warning all day long. Water blew in under the side door as the yard flooded. My doorstop MOOSE got really wet and when I picked him up water ran everywhere. He wsa not happy, so I draped him over the bathtub to drain and this morning he when to thedryer spa. It is cloudy today and a lot cooler and we have a busy day away from the house.

Did I tell you how much I love my digital electric pressure cooker, well if I didn't let me tell you now, I LOVE IT !!!!! I used it to make beef stew yesterday 36 minutes and we were done. The best is I went to amazon to look for a nice cookbook and I had enough points to get a $23 dollar order for $2.80, whoohoo is what I said. It is arriving on the 27th.

Cut some of the Christmas Quilt yesterday will finish it tomorrow. This week I will spend in the cottage gathering up stuff for retreat give aways. The quilt is packages and so cute, comes from a magazine, thats like free almost.

I cooked for Mike for next week, navy beans and brown rice, ham steaks, beef stew with potatoes and carrots. Tomorrow I will do baking potatoes over stuffed and wrapped with a slice of turkey bacon, this is a WW recipe and is the best. I will do enough to send Hank a couple also. Mike supplied the potatoes and we all get to eat.

Hank has started to cook for himself and he doesn't eat the veggies we all eat so I don't cook for him , I just shop with him.

Have a great day and remember to bt greatful for your blessings.

Hugs patticake
