My new "favorite thing"


MONOGRAMS!!! I have seen monograms becoming very popular! and I love it! I have recently purchased several "P" things without really paying that much attention to my growing monogram collection. This yard flag was my most recent purchase, doesn't it look great in my flower bed? Now, if only my dog will leave it alone!


I had a very full weekend...Friday, I spent the evening at my friend Pam's house getting ready for our garage sale on Saturday. We had a great time, it was pretty hot but there were 7 people so it didn't take long to get organized. We had pizza for dinner and it was yummy!

Saturday, I got up early and drove over to Paris for the yard sale. We had a successful day and the temp stayed below 100, we were so thankful! Pam made the best breakfast AND lunch. She is a great cook and made the yummyest monkey bread for breakfast and the best chicken salad I have ever eaten for lunch! I will pass along the recipe if she doesn't mind. I mentioned she was a great cook, well, as I was having a second helping of chicken salad, I noticed she had a bundle of recipes by her stove, they were labeled "recipes I have NOT tried." How clever is that? I just have all mine stuffed together and never know when I made it or not. Let's just say my OCD tendancy kicked in and I am in the process of re-organizing my recipe box! Thanks, Pam!

I met my mom Saturday evening and we had dinner at Roma's in Durant, (yummy!) and went to see the Oklahoman Shakespearen Festival's production of "Honky Tonk Angels." It was really good. We usually attend at least one of the plays each summer. We had a few spare minutes and popped into Bliss Boutique, that's where I got my "P" flag.

We went to church on Sunday, I substitued for the children's dept teacher and afterwards I came home and took a long nap. How I love Sunday afternoon naps! I finished mowing and then I cooked dinner for Clint. Gosh, how does the weekend pass so fast? Tomorrow is Monday and I have a very busy week ahead.

  1. We have a flag with a "W" on it in our front yard. It is our second flag. The first one faded. Here is the Chicken Salad Recipe. 1 Traditional Roasted Chicken deboned ( I normally get my at Wal-Mart). 1 or 2 apples chopped up. Pickles chopped up. Pecan pieces. Normally buy a bad of Pecan already chopped and just pour it in. Add Miricle Whip to tast. I normally add a lot. This makes a large bowel you can trim it down if needed.

    I also had all of my recipes stuffed together at one time. When I was doing my "summer cleaning" for the garage sale I went through all of my and made that bundle. I am glad I could help out with your OCD.

    I am glad you had a good time with your mom. I too got a nap on Sunday. Even though Carter Joe didn't take a long one.
