Last week's egg salad sandwich on the homemade avocado bread was fantastic. I can't wait to try chicken salad, southwest chicken salad or even tuna salad on this "bread" it is that good. I may play around with other seasonings, other than homemade everything but the bagel seasoning.
Today I am joining Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom.
The weather in our neck of the woods . . .
Our version of the extreme cold, that is unusual for our area. It does happen, but just not that often. The wind can make it very brutal here. This morning it is a brisk -13°F. A very thin layer of snow.
Things that make me happy . . .
(Books and magazines were half price while we were there.)
Taking road trips to see something new to us. Small or big. We found a hidden treasure, and it filled my adventure tank (minus the hiking ha ha!). What a treasure to find. A non-profit foundation that has a used book store, that sells all sorts of books, magazines, puzzles, new local artist work, new local author books, locally made crafts/art, a room full of donated yarn for sale, crafting books, and much more. We were both shocked at what we found inside, because the outside made it appear small. I'm so glad we ventured out to find this, and yes (gulp), I bought some books, but held off on the yarn (for now anyway).
Another good thing about this discovery, if we venture there again, I can donate books, craft books, craft supplies, kids books, and even small balls of yarn (yes they sell those too). What a happy place. There are a few chairs to relax in, so my husband had no problem waiting on me to check it all out. Heck, we can donate our puzzles, and buy a new one there.

What I am creating . . .
I am mostly focusing on the crochet lap afghan. I made another granny square too, and jus need to sew in the ends. I'll be sharing that project this week (granny square project).
No words needed (favorite photo) . . .
Taken last Thursday at around noon. I think they knew a cold spell was coming. I have not seen deer at noon before. Not that I remember.
Devotionals, Prayers, and Bible Verses . . .
