Nuts

Just made these keto roasted cinnamon sugared pecans....yum! My house smells like the carnival has come to town! A delicious treat on this ugly, cloudy day.

 

I'm hooked on making these rag garlands...good therapy for me right now. Have a great day everyone!

 

Nothing more mind numbing than tying knots and watching Jerry Springer.

 

It's not a very happy one, but Happy Birthday to me

I feel so blessed today. My son, Darren and daughter-in-law. Mindy Holsapple came to visit. They brought flowers, home made gifts and Mindy made a delicious pasta dish with all the trimmings for our supper. We had a lovely visit too...Happy birthday to me!

 

Good Bye little brother...

My brother, Milo Knight passed away early this afternoon at Deaconess Midtown hospital in Evansville, IN. Bill, me, my brother, Kent, and his best buddy, Kenny, were there with him. He had rock music playing in his room and he went quietly. He knew we were there, even though he couldn't speak. It was heartbreaking, but he is at peace now. He will be missed, but I take comfort in the fact that he lived his life the way he wanted and was friends with so many. Being a musician, wherever Milo was, there was always a party going on. I'm sure he is being greeted by his wife Barb, Mom, Dad and all the family members that have gone on before. It was just time for Milo to go to Rock and Roll heaven, rock on little brother.

Please keep our brother in your prayers...

Friends, please keep my brother, Milo Knight in your prayers and hearts. I am so sad to tell you all this. He is back in Indiana at Deaconess Midtown hospital in Evansville, Indiana. He is very, very sick. The cancer has spread and his kidneys and liver have stopped working. Things look pretty bleak for him. My brother. Kent, and I went to visit him today in the ICU. He was very alert and was glad to see us. Bill could not go in as only two visitors were allowed per day. We stayed a couple of hours and talked about old times, joked with him and gave him hugs. We took a few pictures. I'm so glad we were able to spend time with him. He is being very brave...so, again, please pray that he does not have pain and for comfort and for a miracle ...that's about all we can do now. Thank you all for the many prayers, which allowed us to have a nice Christmas season with him, he was able to celebrate his birthday and he had a normal life for a short while after being diagnosed in early December..

 

Mediterranean Scramble, it's what's for breakfast. It's also yummy!

 

Rag garland

Nothing to do this evening so decided to make this rag garland. How relaxing and a good way to use up scraps of fabric. I think it really brightens up my kitchen..I know, I know, you would think the bright green walls would be enough!  I added some cookie cutters just for fun...I hope you all have a great night.

Tunnel of lights

Out for an evening walk through the tunnel of Christmas lights in Kinmundy park. The tunnel is my favorite decoration every year.

Time for a new facebook profile picture

 

My grandma and grandpa Westman

Christmas time always brings back memories of past Christmases...this is the wedding picture of my Grandma (Beulah Flannigan) and my Grandpa, John Westman, Sr..parents of John Westman, Jr., Bob Westman and Mary Belle Westman (Knight), my mom. I have so many wonderful memories with these two people who started it all..I still miss them so much! Even though they have been gone for many, many years, they will always be remembered in my heart.

 

Deer me

Time to break out the photos of Christmas past.
