We have 3 inches of snow on the ground, making it look very pretty but also slippery in spots. Shovel has come out of storage with the boots and mittens! A pretty time of year but also a very busy one, one I like very much!busy grandmahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07136367857251486247noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6130177152853553137.post-87074732058207065232010-11-11T07:10:00.000-08:002010-11-11T07:10:04.731-08:00Temps are Falling Fast!Well, get prepared," Winter is coming" is what one local forecaster announced this morning.

Today is Veterans Day. My husband was in the Airforce during the end of the Vietnam War. We were stationed at Barksdale AFB, a very beautiful base in Shreveport, Bossier City. I have many good memories of those days, friends in the military became our family away from our families. Some we are still in touch with, a special friendship shared by many.

It is also one that if you are an experience knitter and like to add your own additional stitches or ways of binding off at hood or possibly even change with embellishments. I have combined 3 patterns plus adding my own ideas to this sweater. I used Red Heart acrylic sport yarn. Keeps it shape and is very warm. Our granddaughter says she is beautiful in it!

I would prefer to purchase many sizes at once. So far on Amazon.com I see the best deals and quality offered. I have some Clover bamboo needles which are excellent but pricey when you want to buy them in every size. I prefer knitting with bamboo needles so I will continue to research for the best deal and quality.<br />Today I saw my first tiny little snowflakes coming down. Only 31 degrees out,but yet no accumulation! That is ok,it is too early for me to have that white stuff on the ground, winter's are long enough here in northern Mn.<br />My daughter just gave me the best cream cheese pumpkin dessert recipe that I will later copy on here. I am a sucker for anything pumpkin!<br />Today I am working on my polarfleece large bag, plus when I take a break from that and watch the tv, I am knitting gloves and mittens,plus leg warmers. I have my directions all spread out in front of me, making it look like I work in utter chaos! Oh well, that is me, I work best under pressure and many ideas flying through my mind!<br />Best get busy now for the day is a wasting!busy grandmahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07136367857251486247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6130177152853553137.post-63956541007043262972010-10-27T11:42:00.000-07:002010-10-27T11:45:48.094-07:00polarfleece not just for blanketsI have taken polar fleece and prepared them into strips and weave them on my handmade loom.

It could be worse so I should not complain too loudly! Just got done putting supper in the oven, baked spuds, salmon with limejuice and garlic roasted vineagar. We are having steamed carrots too plus I put in a new recipe we introduced during the holidays. Every holiday we try to make a new recipe, since we are the cooks for the holidays in this family, I like to try new things.<br />This year we tried Corn Pudding , why they call it pudding I dont know. It should be corn bread stuffing, very moist though. Anyway everyone liked it so much that it will be a family favorite.<br />Here is the recipe if anyone would like to try it.We are still experimenting with it so maybe you can add your own twist to it too.<br /><br />Ingredients:<br />1 pkg. 8 0z size cream cheese softened<br />2 eggs<br />1/3 cuo sugar<br />1 pkg. of jiffy corn bread/muffin mix<br />1 can of cream corn<br />1 can regular corn or 2 cups of frozen corn <br />1/2 cuo of top the tator sour cream or 1/2 cup milk, we like the sour cream<br />2 tablespoons of melted butter or margarine<br />1/2 tsp salt<br />1/4 tsp. nutmeg<br />Lightly grease a deep dish casserole. Blend in mixing bowl the cream cheese, sour cream sugar and eggs. Add the remainging ingredients and blend well by hand<br />bake at 400 for 30 to 45 minutes, may have to cover with foil during the end of time if the middle stays wet. Like I said, we are still experimenting !<br />Enjoy we have found that it is even better the second day, eat cold or warm it up againbusy grandmahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07136367857251486247noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6130177152853553137.post-84154046332840150612010-01-03T15:36:00.001-08:002010-01-03T15:36:18.311-08:00Very cold here in northern Mn.busy grandmahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07136367857251486247noreply@blogger.com0
