Cross stitching I am still working on Hang Ten I have completed two pages and started on the third page. Sorry no picture yet, I keep forgetting.

Netflix-way back in April or May we decided to cancel our comcast for TV and we tried Netflix watch instantly and I have to say that I really like it. Here are a few good movies I've watched so far. Dear Zachary, Imposter, Sling Blade, Brothers, Winter Bone, Unhook the Stars, America, Fat Sick and Dying, The Edge, Ask my Children, Crossed Over.

Well that was my week, hope you had a good one!

Harvest and Sun Flower Earrings, made with seed beads and round beads, using circular peyote stitch.
Beaded Swags Ornament, made with seed beads and bugle beads.
Every year I make ornaments for family and give them on Thanksgiving. I started making these ornaments back in July and just finished them this week.
Friday night went out with the girls from work. Jackie is moving out of state so we had a little going away party for her.

Saturday we were invited out to Carl's place. He just bought more land and it has a pond and places to park campers. It was kind of hard to find, but after stopping an Amish family that was passing in their horse and wagon they knew where it was. LOL! It was so pretty out there I took a few pictures and I also have a video below of the view.

There is a small pond some where fishing to see what fish Carl has in his pond. His plans are to make the pond bigger and he already ordered over 500 fish for the pond.

While Bob and I was out there they caught a few cat fish and bass.

Jon and Nikki brought out their cooker and cooked some deer meat. Sorry I can't tell you if it was good or not, we left before it was done.




Well that was my week, hope you had a good one, until next time.

It's been a few weeks...

Camping over Labor Day Weekend. I made my famous Campfire Bundles, recipe here. The place where we were camping had a DJ one night and we went dancing, came back to the campsite very hungry, so I made up some Pineapple Shrimp Packets.
Canned pineapple slices, 1 1/2 pounds medium shrimp, peeled & divined, 1/3 C chopped sweet red pepper, 1/3 C brown sugar, 1 TBS seafood seasoning, 3 TBS butter, softened. Place on double heavy-duty foil a pineapple. Top with shrimp and red pepper. Combine brown sugar, seafood seasoning & butter, dot over shrimp. Fold foil & seal tightly. Grill over medium heat for 10-15 minutes.


Last week I made Blueberry Streusel Cobbler with Blueberry Sauce and served warm with ice cream. This is a family favorite, it was gone in 24 hours after making it. I did get two pieces.

1 pint fresh or frozen blueberries (fresh is best), 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated milk), 3/4 C plus 2 TBS cold butter, 2 C biscuit baking mix, divided, 1/2 C brown sugar. Oven 325. In bowl combine blueberries, sweetened milk. In large bowl, cut 3/4 C butter into 1 1/2 C biscuit mix until crumbly; add blueberry mixture. Spread in greased 9" square baking pan. In small bowl, combine remaining 1/2 C biscuit mix and sugar; but in remaining 2 TBS butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over cobbler. Bake 1 hour and 10 min or until golden. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream and blueberry sauce. Refrigerate leftovers.

Blueberry Sauce for Blueberry Streusel Cobbler-1/2 C sugar, 1 TBS cornstarch, 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon, 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg, 1 pint fresh blueberries. Combine ingredients in saucepan. Gradually add 1/2 C water. Cook and stir until thickened. Stir in 1 pint blueberries; cook and stir until hot.
