Just a quick note to all my wonderful readers!

THANK YOU!!!!!
Because of your diligent voting you have voted me into the winner's circle as Lamp's Plus

2013 Best Hone Blog Family Category!



A big big thanks to all of you and Lamp's Plus!

Very exciting news for me... and it came at the perfect time. I had a pretty big surgery last Tuesday and just got home from the hospital and now am trying to recuperate. I so underestimated the gravity of having both of my arthritic knee caps repaired.  So I'll be posting (preposted a week's worth of posts) this week, but I think most of my time will be sleeping with elevated legs and ice, lots of physical theraph (ouch!) and learning to walk again! If you think of me say a little prayer for a very quick recovery!

I have lots of Christmas decorations to share with all of you!!!!

Now here's what's ON THE MENU...

Crusty Bread



TUESDAY


WEDNESDAY





THURSDAY~ THANKSGIVING DAY

Turkey and all the Trimmings!






FRIDAY




SATURDAY~ SLOW COOKER DAY

  1. Yvonne, I'm sure this is hard for you not to be up and about! Praying that your physical therapy will go well. My mother had this surgery years ago, and I was amazed at how quickly she bounced back with the PT. God's design of our body and healing properties is amazing! Take care my friend and let your friends and family show their love and care for you!
