Staying Cool

 I made pizza rolls and dinner rolls and took some to the Princess and her brother.

Their parents are on a diet so can't have any. 

Pizza rolls are so easy to make. Basically same as cinnamon rolls.  Just add pepperoni, sauce and cheese and roll up and cut. I also made some chocolate chip cookies for them.

Before they rose and baked.

After they come out of the oven I brush them with butter.

They are really yummy.

I forgot to take a picture of them baked. I guess I was in a hurry to get them delivered.

The kids had a virus that wasn't covid, this past week so I didn't get to see them. I think the pizza rolls will help get them back in the swing of things.

The heat has arrived and tomorrow it is suppose to be 111+ here. I am hoping the weather man is wrong.

I will let you know how high the temperature actually gets after tomorrow. 😎 It is summer and it is expected, but I am never prepared for the heat.

Stay cool!

Hot and Smoky

 It is another hot one here today. Smoke from the fire down south is hovering above us, making it hazy outside. Not enough to keep me inside though so that is good.

 Although the smoke messes with my allergies, so I can't be out to much.

So another day of doing something inside.

Yesterday I did a make over on a frame I had. It was pewter colored and I made it bronze colored.

I added an old vintage greeting card as a picture. My Mom had a bunch of old greeting cards that I could choose from.

In this picture if you look closely at the greeting card it has glitter on parts of it. Do you remember how in the old days they put glitter on greeting cards? I do. I am that old!

They made things so pretty back then.

Anyhow,

here is how it looks.

In the 90's I loved the pewter colored frames. I had a bunch of them. I have a lot I don't use, so I thought it would be fun to paint it up and use it. I am happy with how it turned out.

I hope you are having fun today doing whatever you enjoy doing!

More Hot Days

 It has been around 107 this week. To hot to do anything outside in the afternoon.

We went to a baseball game and we were all hot after that. Then the Princess was sick the rest of the week with a virus. So this week wasn't so great. 

Today I got up walked my two miles and baked my sourdough. I tried different shapes today.

It still tastes the same just different.

Nothing else exciting is happening around here.

We have been doing projects around the house, that is about it.

One thing that was done was a window sill for my bathroom.

I have never had a sill. Just the drywall around the window painted. So my husband used a piece of scrap granite and made one for me.

I was so happy! Now I can put my plants there and not worry.

Funny how things work out.

I have wanted a sill for the 32 years we have lived here. So now I have one!

There was never a rush as you can see. 😂

I still have touch up painting to do.

It is a good time to paint in doors.

I hope your weekend is off to a great start!

Blooms

It is another hot day here. 

This is some of what is blooming.

 Hope you are staying cool!

The Princess

 

It is summer baseball season!

                                                              

Ugh!  It is also the hottest time of the year!

She loves baseball!

We love her so much!

It is only 101 degrees today, but we have a huge wild fire in the area.

So not sure if they will have a game tonight or if it will be cancelled.

Hopefully the fire fighters can get a hold on the fire.

We appreciate all their hard work.

Take care and stay cool!

Another Day, Another Flower

 The heat wave has subsided for now. Today it is only suppose to get to 100 degrees.

The flowers love the heat I guess.  Here is what is blooming.

That is all for now.

Hope you are enjoying your day!

Happy Monday

 It is going to be a hot day here today.

I thought I would share what is blooming today. Tomorrow they may be fried. 😱

Well hopefully not, but it is suppose to be 110 degrees here. I hope the weatherman is wrong. 

Enjoy your week!

Oh Christmas Tree

 I wanted to share my jello mold Christmas Tree. It is welded so it should last for years. I did super glue the star on top just in case I find something else I like better. 

 

My husband gets all the credit for welding. I just put the jello molds how I wanted them.   I hope you are enjoying your weekend.

 

Happy First Day of July

I wanted to share the latest angel to join the garden angels.

 My angel planter has some blooms in it.

And some other things of interest in the garden today.

I am working on a jello mold Christmas tree. My husband welded the base together and I am stacking the jello molds together and gluing. It looks pretty cool so far. I wanted to make it last Christmas, but I never had enough time. So at least it will be ready this year.  

I hope you are having a wonderful Friday!
