Decorating for Easter

04/05/2012

I love bringing out the Easter eggs that our children decorated when they were little every year. The more years pass since they made them, the more special they have become. They bring back memories of us making them together and they make a great decoration and conversation piece. Most everyone who sees the antique basket of decorated eggs for the first time raves [...]

Carmelized Fried Apples

04/04/2012

We fell in love with this farmhouse 18 years ago. It had everything we wanted, an old white house with a front porch, old swing, barns, broken fences, plum trees, grapevines, cherry tree, fig tree, pear trees and big ole apple trees. We moved in in the fall and the produce was more than we knew what to do with the first year. Bushels and bushels of apples sat in b[...]
