A little of this and a little of that

I mentioned in my last post that I was just going to just let the weekend take me wherever it led and I’m here to tell you that I did precisely that. I spent it doing what I felt like doing and had no obligations other than some laundry.

So I spent it doing

a little of this . . .

I took photos of leaves. These looked pretty against the color of the ground and the red of the barn.

And a little of that . . .

I finished another potholder. I must be buddah cuz I’m on a roll.

I’m cracking myself up.

A little of this . . .

I wanted quiche for Sunday breakfast but didn’t want to have to go out to get any ingredients. Checking the frig, I saw I had eggs, half & half, some leftover ham slices, an onion, cheddar and swiss cheese. When I found the half box of pie crust mix in the cupboard, I took it as a sign. (I don’t make my own pie crust and have used a box mix for years.

5 eggs, about 1/2 cup of half & half, 1/3 cup each shredded cheddar, Swiss cheese, ham cubes. About 1/3 onion, sliced very thin, sautéed with butter and allowed to cool.

Add cream to eggs, beat. Add cheeses, ham and cooled onions. Pour into pie shell and bake at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes. Very very yummy.

And then some of this . . .

I had the macro lens on the camera and was taking pictures of leaves when I turned around and saw George watching me through the fence. Maybe I’ll enter it in PW’s ‘Four Legs’ assignment. The competition is pretty fierce, though. Group 1 and Group 2 have been posted and I was pretty blown away by a lot of the submissions.

and some of that . . .

I bought some yarn on Saturday and started another scarf. I love the colors and it felt so darn good sitting outside in the sunshine and knitting while watching my husband take the garden posts down.

I like watching him work, too.

And then there’s this . . .

This bold brazen article. Note the right ear. I shot this through the kitchen window and thought that the background color was sort of pretty. I layered it with Flypaper’s phosphorescence texture (from tex box one-the original). I received several e-mails recently from people asking how to apply texture to a photo, so I sent them {this tutorial} that I wrote back in March. Hope it helped.

Next weekend, I have Big Plans and it should be fun.

Thanks always for your visits. It’s so good to have you stop by.

Until tomorrow, then my friends . . .
