'Tis the season -- Peace be with you.
Happy Thanksgiving, Dear Ones! Wishing you a day filled with good food and loved ones!
Were you a fan of the "Andy Griffith Show?" The "Andy Griffith Show" is an American television sitcom that aired on CBS from 1960 to 1968. I guess what our family watched when I was in junior high school must have been the syndicated episodes, since I was only eight years old when the original show ended.
The month of October is off to a beautiful start, wouldn't you agree? In my previous post, I wrote about our little getaway to Hendersonville, in the North Carolina mountains. On the day we headed home, we got an early start after breakfast and made our way to Grandad's Apples. This was the first time we had ever visited an apple orchard; we've always just stopped at produce stands along the Blue Ridge Parkway in the fall to get our fresh apples.
Hello Friends! Are you having a good week? We left last Wednesday driving to Hendersonville, North Carolina, for a two-day visit. My mom and I started this annual tradition in 2020, and this year, Hal went with us. We all had such a good time. The weather was perfect, and it was a real treat to get away for a change of scenery.
Hi everyone! Are you ready for the weekend? Week before last, I made some homemade chocolate ice cream. We purchased a Cuisinart ice cream maker about six years ago, but we haven't used it a lot. We used it the first summer we had it, but after that we kind of forgot about it. We probably wouldn't have bought one at all, except that my mom got one, and she really liked it. She used it a lot before my dad passed away, but she hasn't used it much since. He really loved homemade ice cream, and he was the official ice cream churner (before the electric ones came along). However, he got too weak to use the ice cream maker before he died, so my mom got the Cuisinart.
