Granola for Breakfast

    Making Granola is something I do every month.I have it for breakfast almost every morning. The Recipe is in this cookbook which I usually go for when looking for a recipe that is simple and I can find all the ingredients I need for the recipe in my cupboard.

                                         Sharing Our Best II by Fairlawn Menn. Church  
                                                                   Ingredients

                                       2 cups wheat germ            2 cups brown sugar
                                       2 cups chopped nuts         2tbs cinnamon
                                     I add : 2 cup craisins and 1 cup flax seed  to this recipe


                                          Mix everything together in a large bowl

                                           with a large wooden spoon mix it all together

                                           Melt: 1 1/2 cup butter and pour over mixture

                                           stir well and spread on a large cookie sheet

                                          Bake on cookie sheet @ 300 degrees for 1 hour
                                          cool and store in a tight container. I store mine in
                                                        this Tupperware container

                                            Would you like to have breakfast with me

                                            and try a bowl of my granola?
                                         I like mine with yogurt and a cup of coffee.

                                          how would you like yours, with milk or yogurt?

                                           Thanks for sharing breakfast with me.

Chair Make Over

                                               Recently I found this chair at a local thrift store
                                                                and decided to buy it.
                            
                                                         I gave it a coat of white paint
                                                             and recovered the seat
                                                                    Added a throw
                                                                      And a pillow
                                                          And found a place for it in the
                                                          bedroom. I love my new chair
                                                      and the best part of it only cost me
                                                                        a total of
                                                            drum roll pleaseeeeeeeeeee

                                                                         $ 15.00

                                                               Thanks for your visit

Love Summer

The Vibrant yellow
                                                 the soft pinks
                                                   Shades of lavender


                                                             and white, just to name a few,
                                                        strolls threw the gardens
                                                      taking the time to relax, sit a spell !
                                                 or laying in the hammock under the shade tree.

                                           Hope you have been inspired to take time to smell the
                                                      flowers, relax, and enjoy the summer.
                                                
                                                       So glad you came to visit!

                                                           love and blessings!!
