I’m sharing this for Gollum’s Foodie Friday weekly event. Visit her at Designs by Gollum to see lots of good food and recipes! I’ve made this recipe several times and it is very good. When I’m having friends join us that are gluten intolerant I use Quinoa instead of Bulgur and it works just fine, [...]

And here’s another great passage with lots of R’s. Philippians 4:4-7 (English Standard Version) 4 Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice. 5Let your reasonableness be known to everyone.

I’ve so enjoyed this weekly meme. It is a creative outlet that brings me lots of joy. It starts with the searching for treasure at thrifty prices then putting them together to create a pleasing result. It’s also fun to look around at what you already have and see what you can put together that [...]

I was in Oxnard last week and stopped at two thrift stores that aren’t my usual. I thought glassware and dishes at the Super Thrift store were way over priced but their linens were priced better. I look forward to coming up with some table settings for the linens I bought especially the black and [...]

It’s almost Wednesday and time for Outdoor Wednesday hosted by Susan at A Southern DayDreamer. I went to explore a beach I’ve never been to before last week. It’s one I’d love to go to again… You access this beach from a steep dirt path and then some steep stairways. The rocks were a great [...]

I bought this pitcher at Goodwill a few weeks back when I was in the Seattle area. That tablecloth it’s on was purchased at Goodwill, too, last year. I love white pitchers and creamers. To see more 2nd Time Around Goodies visit Diane at A Picture is Worth a 1,000 Words!
