April 15th Photo-A-Day TRANSPORT
The Photo-A-Day choices were Sadness which I was going to be funny and show the IRS logo and remind you that today TAXES are due. That inspires sadness in me. Hobby was another choice but since I dedicated the entire MONTH of March to my HOBBY that seemed really redundant. Then I saw TRANSPORT and that struck a funny cord in me. Soooooooooo I give you my interpretation of TRANSPORT!! Am I a funny girl or what? I told you! I collect some of the oddest things! This little donkey has been with me for years. He is so stinkin’ cute I can’t seem to get rid of him. Do you collect useless (totally obscure and weird) items to?? Godzilla he was part of the Comet TV giveaways way back. He is 100% a keeper! Probably until Alice visits then I may lose him or she just shake her head at me too. I hope you all have a WONDERFUL…

April 14th Photo-A-Day ENTRANCE
So, my plan for the Photo-A-Day prompt of ENTRANCE was going to be the tree house. But, it’s raining. I’m sugar! I WILL MELT!! Okay, fine. I just don’t wanna tromp through the mud to go to the scary tree house. So instead you get the entrance to our home. Oh and a side note here we are getting a new roof; a metal one so that the snow slides off. I’m thinking red. Whadda you think? Some of the accent pieces on the decks and under the awnings are painted red. I thought it would be a nice compliment. BUT since we are in the middle of the woods would it be TOO much?? Should I just stick to a deep green? This is not our house or our roof; this is just for example. So, back to my photo prompt. This is my entrance from porch to the inside. The entry is small with or large? Open the…

April 13th Photo-A-Day BROWN!!
My streak of Photo-A-Day still going strong! Since March 1st. I pick between several different Challenges that are posted on Pinterest. I pick and choose so suit my whim. HA! It pays to be the Mamma Peanut! Sarah, you said you needed the recipe for my bread. My amazing, make the house smell divine! So easy NO knead bread. So I picked BROWN for my photo. Along with my bread recipe!! How pretty is this bread!?!? The taste and the smell is even better! Ohhh but so pretty!! Crunchy BROWN crust and tender inside. YUM!! This recipe needs two very important things. INSTANT yeast. Double triple check that it says INSTANT I now have a large jar of regular yeast = I guess traditional bread making is in my future soon. Second important item to have is heavy Dutch Oven. I grabbed mine at Walmart under $40 and it’s RED!!! It’s also already well loved! Day one mix the following: 3…

April 12th Photo-A-Day PEACEFUL
Finally, my Photo-A-Day prompt that isn’t IN the house or AROUND the house. Are you excited?? I actually took these pictures a couple of weeks ago. The Husband had a doctor’s appointment and I wanted the opportunity to walk through the Healing Garden. The Healing Garden is between Sandpoint Idaho’s hospital and the doctors’ buildings. It’s the perfect little PEACEFUL spot. I had never taken the time to walk through the garden but The Husbands appointment took forEVER. Side note here (yes, sidetrack again!) doctors appointments in California take 40 minutes to get in and 10 minutes with the doctor. IF YOU ARE LUCKY!! The same appointment here in Sandpoint is 5 minute wait and 40 to 60 minutes WITH THE DOCTOR?!?! Sayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaa???? You mean a doctor is going to actually sit and TALK TO US?! Ohhhhhhh Sandpoint yet another reason to love you. ANYWAY, I sat in the car with my California mind set that The Husband would…

April 11th Photo-A-Day TROPHIES
My Photo-A-Day for TROPHIES are different than most. I don’t do sports so there will never be a little baseball player on a trophy. Not even in school! I do NOT run. As a matter of fact if you DO see me running. Keep up or run faster cause sumthin’ big is headed our way! I bowl but with a 135 average I am not gonna get a trophy that way. I haven’t gone hunting since I moved away from home in 1977! So, no heads on the wall here. Nope, my trophies are photographs. Since moving to Sandpoint, Idaho my Nikon, my Galaxy S8 phone and my trail cams have given me amazing canvas worthy trophies!! My wildlife WALL of Fame is just off the master-bedroom, down 5 steps before you hit Alice’s room (okay, the guest-room if you want to get technical) the exercise room and The Husbands office. YES!! His office is on the OPPOSITE side of…

April 10th Photo-A-Day Signs Of Spring
My Photo-A-Day Signs Of Spring, is kinda funny because it is a gloomy day here in Sandpoint, Idaho. The sky is gray. It’s been raining on and off all day and expected to continue till next week. Ackkkkkkkkkk that mud hole at the end of the driveaway is only gonna get worse. I should have kept track of the number of stuck vehicles that had to be pulled out of the mud. Some are so stuck that I think they may just pop up on a USED CAR for sale site with a side note that says owner must pick up, no delivery available. So, my Signs Of Spring could be pictures of the mud hole, but that’s boring and I want to get back to binge watching Game Of Thrones. (HOW have I never watched this?!?! Season 2 and I’m thoroughly addicted! I’ve also wasted 3 full days. Thank Heavens I’m retired!) So, back to Spring!! These are a…
