A starting point.....

  I have been waiting so long to start this blog......I'm not sure what I was waiting for....
   How about if I introduce myself through some pictures............
  I'm hoping to chronical my life living in a 100 year old farmhouse, missing my 3 grown children who come home between jobs and college, caring for my horses and St. Bernards, growing and using as many herbs and vegetables as I can and making my house a home.  I love to travel and hunt for vintage finds for my Etsy shop. I love just living in the country and I try to never take for granted how truly blessed I am to be here in the first place!!

This is Lucy and Maggie.  They do this alot...gaze longingly out the front door....looking for something to bark at.  They find it quite often.

Duece
This is my guy!! Our rescued ex race horse from Lexington Kentucky. A race horse who never won a race.  I think he has quite the life.....eats, sleeps, poops and plays with his girlfriend....
Samba
   She too is an ex race horse who actually won a race or two.  Unfortunately for her owner, she became lame and could no longer race.  That was our GOOD fortune.....She is huge, sweet and definately wears the pants in the relationship.  She too has quite the life....eating, sleeping, pooping and bossing poor Duece around.
This is where I
LIVE
I love my house and I love making my house a home! I hope to share my homemaking skills....well...I don't know if I'd call them skills...but I sure have FUN!!
This is a part of my HERB GARDEN before it became so HOT, HOT, HOT!!!
I'm sorry to say it's not quite so pretty now. We had an un usually early summer and an exceptionally hot one too.  Weeds really like my flower and Herb beds....someday...when I don't have to work outside of my home....I'll have the garden beds that I start out having every year....before the weeds move in.....sigh...someday...

I love wearing Vintage Aprons like these!! If you've never worn one, well, just let me say you are really missing out!!! I feel like whenever I cook something wearing one of these aprons...well, it just tastes better and it usually comes out the way it should!!!


Yep!!! I love me some aprons!!!


See you soon,
