Our Saturday..

Woke up to the birds singing. The sun shining, and a cool breeze blowing through my bedroom window. :)

Decided we would go to a flea market at Allaire State Park! So glad we did. We met my mom there and we had a great time. Also caught up with my friend Genevieve!!! SO glad to see her as well! You can check out her finds here :http://primitiveparadise.blogspot.com/

Hubby and I found some great deals!

First off I love cast iron!!! I love to cook in it, love the way it looks, just love it all around! And since I am primarily cooking with it, my anemia is no longer. :)


How precious are these?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!

Little Bears


 Fruits and Veggies!!!




Muffin/Cake pans!! I just love them. Now I am very picky about where my cast iron comes from it absolutely must be made in the USA!

And these were from a place in Pennsylvania!! Yeah, so exciting!!!

They are in really good shape, just going to clean them up and oil them really good !!!

Can't wait to give it a try!!!

And then I came across this:



Do you know what this is???

SO, I have been searching and wanting one of these for YEARS!!!! YEARS I TELL YOU!!!!!!

And because I am picky about where my cookware comes from.. It has taken a while to find this beauty and a reasonable price!!!

Anyway, it's a homemade french fry maker. Popular in the depression era. This one happens to have been made in Italy!!! Love it!!! AAANNNNDDDD..... for $3.00.. can't beat it!!!

Can't wait to make our first batch of homemade fries with it!!!!


We then picked up some more plants for the garden. Came home and planted my little suburban homestead garden. Everything is in now! Unless we decide to get some more stuff.

But we have red and green romaine, Italian peppers, green bell peppers, eggplant, zucchini, cucumbers, sangria watermelons, lots of tomatoes and fresh basil went in today as well!


Sneak Peak Photos more to come tomorrow. :)

Hubby was in an accident....

Proverbs 31 11 Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. 12 She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life. The blaring ring of the phone woke me on Tuesday morning... 7:15am... I knew as soon as I looked at the clock, something was wrong. No one calls here that early.. I quickly peel a child out of my arms and trying to not wake her, before the phone does. She had a restless night. "hello" in a whisper.. as I was still in my bedroom. Walking out of my room, I hear my darling hubbys nervous voice, "I was in an accident" Me, "Are you ok"... Him, "yes" Me" do you need me to come?" Him, "no, I'll call you" He explained what happened. His company truck was pretty messed up, and the air bags went off. He said he had some airbag burn, felt ok, just stressed. Next call I got was from him in the police car, the officer was kind enough to drop him off at work. The convers...

Cool Temps = Warm Meals

Image
  One of my favorite things to do on a cold crisp day is cooking and baking. Something about the smell of onions, carrots, and celery sauteing up brings a sense of home. And remind me powerfully of my grandmother. The memories of being in her home and feeling her love are all tied to food, where she spent the bulk of her time. Preparing nourishing meals for her family.  When we take the time to prepare meals, we show love to our family. Tonight, I made a Potatoe, Bacon, Cheddar, and Good Ol' Fashion Chicken Noodle.
