So my “smile flowers” gave me a lot of smiles. Not just on the day they arrived that I really needed the smile, but afterwards. They opened up and were just a lovely spot in the mess that was going on around us. It was so nice. I wanted to share another photo of them so you could see how beautiful they were! Thanks again, Friend!

A Smile In A Vase
Posted by terrepruitt on April 19, 2024
Sometimes friends are magical. I woke up one day just fed up and I received a bunch of flowers from a friend. It was perfect timing. I was “fed up” with all the work that was being done on the house and the mess and how you have to follow the workers around to make sure they have done/are doing what they agreed to do and just all the stuff that goes on when work has to be done on the house. I was done and the flowers made me smile. And they were beautiful. Thanks, Friend!

Late Spring Post
Posted by terrepruitt on April 12, 2024
I looked out my window this week and saw this gorgeous tree. I figured since I hadn’t posted my annual picture of our Cherry Blossom tree, I could post this, even though it is no longer March. This is a different tree so I thought that would be a good change for a Friday Photo.
How is your Spring going?

Black Black Cat
Posted by terrepruitt on March 25, 2024
I am so fascinated by our black cat right now. She is so very black. She has not been able to sit in the sun. We haven’t had that much and we have had workers in the house so cats have to stay in their room when people are going in and out of the house so she hasn’t had much space to lie in the sun. So she is so black. Some cats “rust”, at least that is what I learned it as being called. Like a blonde whose hair gets bleached by the sun, some black cats get “rusty”. The black gets red/rusty highlights or undertones . . . I am not sure which, but she ends up looking less black. She is still black, it is just a different shade. Right now she is BLACK! It is fascinating. Her name is Teagan so clearly she is beautiful no matter what shade of black she is . . . it is just striking to me.
Are you familiar with “rusting” cats?

Adjusted Spaghetti Pie – Friday Photo
Posted by terrepruitt on February 23, 2024
Today’s Friday Photo is food. This was the best Spaghetti Pie I have made and I need to make note of it. I mixed the eggs and added some milk. Then I added some ricotta to the eggs AND some mozzarella. I used most of the entire container of ricotta. I had used some of it for something else, but not a lot. So a couple of spoons went into the eggs then the rest of the container went into the center. I also used the yummy olive oil (Milanese Gremolata) to grease the pan. And I put aluminum foil into the pan then parchment paper. My spring form pan leaks so the aluminum was to help it not leak all over. I sprinkled some olive oil on the noodles around the edge. It came out so good.

Teagan’s Paper
Posted by terrepruitt on February 16, 2024
I had given Teagan a piece of paper to sit on. She loved it. But then her sister sat on it. So I gave Teagan a different piece of paper of her own to sit on. She just stared at her sister on her paper. So I had to unfold the paper. And here we are . . . . today’s Friday Photo.

Rockin’ Snow Globe
Posted by terrepruitt on February 9, 2024
I thought I had posted this picture during the Christmas Season because I feel it is more of a Christmas post, but I have it on my desktop and I just want to post it. I have had this little rocking snow globe for about 35 years. I can’t remember exactly, but I know it was from a Christmas party at my first job. I had two of these, but one broke. Along with them I have four little baskets with fake foliage in them. Two have holly berries and two have pine snippets. They were all table decorations that we were able to take home. I was sad when one broke, but that happens. It is just cheap plastic, but boy does it bring back memories. It is a silly thing, but I think it is cute.
I know it is kinda weird to have a Christmas thing posted in February, but I really want to post this little guy. I know if I file it away I will forget, but it is driving me crazy on my desktop. So here is my little rockin’ snow globe from a Christmas party from my first job for today’s Friday Photo. I love this guy!
