Blanket Progress and Daffodils

Hello friends, did you have a good weekend?  We didn't do anything exciting, except one outing for a drive-thru dinner for our grandson Caleb and picked up a few things from the store.  It was cold and rainy so we enjoyed some movies and I crocheted by the fire.  Good winter endeavors.  Four more colors, 8 rows.  

It's getting big enough to warm my lap and that is nice.

Yesterday something scared Mocha and she jumped up in the middle of things and climbed right up on my chest.  Darling girl.

We found some old windows with old wavy glass in our barn from old windows we had in the house and had replaced with new ones - so Dayle took them to the glass shop and they cut it and installed it in the old blue cabinet.  You can't see the waves in these photos but trust me, it's wavy.

Meet our new rooster, I got him to live with my hen on a nest my friend Bev found at a yard sale last summer.  I think I will name him after my dad Wally who was born and raised on the farm where the cabinet came from.  

A valentine for you.  :-)

Look at our daffodils!  I hope we don't have a freeze or snow come in.

I can't wait to pick a bouquet of yellow jonquils.

And look.. we have Snowdrops in bloom!!

And the Irises and Star of Bethlehem are up.  

Dayle made a baked ham, fried potato and corn dinner.  Nummmm.

And Caleb requested Mexican food so Dayle and I worked together to make burritos.  So easy, just saute hamburger, when cooked add salsa, heat up re-fried beans and grate cheese, we got these neat tortillas that are half flour and half corn.  Put a layer of hot beans, sprinkle grated cheese, we used Tillamook Cheddar, spoon over the meat and sauce, roll up and put on some sour cream and sliced olives.  Our topping that we used is Uncle Dan's Ranch dressing seasoning mixed with sour cream and mayo.  It's garlicky and herb-y and totally makes this meal.

My daughter Amy took Paige (L) and Jenna to the hairdresser.  Don't they look cute?  They are having quite the snowstorm there in Ohio.  They are back to in-school learning.  I sure do with they lived close enough to spend time with us.  We haven't seen them for a year and a half.  Wah.

Dayle and I watched this movie on Saturday.  It was extremely well-done.  I highly recommend it.  They were making plans to put her image on our $20 bill but Trump refused to allow it.  Our new president, Joe Biden, has gotten the project back on line.  She deserves it.  What a life she lived.  I hope you are able to watch it.

I named my September Morn Nymph - Lily - as she's in a lotus bowl which is a water lily.  Thanks Terra for the name!

So.. how was your weekend?  Do you have any fun plans for the week?  I plan to crochet and do some tidying and get the blue cabinet moved into it's "place".  More on that later.

((hugs)), Teresa :-)
