finally...a weekend at home

 
I've had this chair forever.  I love it.  MDH glued the arm back together & I painted it with my $5 gallon of paint from Lowe's.
Before...
 
 
After...
 
 
MDH put up some Halloween decorations...
 
 
 
 

 
For dinner
Tiny carrots from the garden...
 
 
A new pork chop recipe.  It's really yummy:)

 
and a new zucchini recipe.  I love these.  They are the best ever.  We are definitely putting zucchini in the garden next year instead of yellow squash.

 
Kitty was glad we were home.
 
 
She was supervising...
 
 
while we worked on the swing chair from Vegas.
MDH took it apart and made a place for me to paint it.
Before...
 
 
after...


 
New rope for the Vegas umbrella...
 
 
and a fire in the Vegas chiminea

 
while MDH cooked the ribs.

 
and another new recipe that's really good...
 
 
 
 


ready for Halloween
