Happy July!

I hope everyone is having a terrific summer and that you're staying cool. After our bitter winter, I hate to complain about the heat. Seems we've gone from extreme to the other.

 Last weekend was our Test A New Recipe cookout.  We had pulled pork sandwiches, testing out a couple of rubs and new BBQ sauces.  We also sampled several new appetizers, side dishes and desserts. The biggest hit was the  Ice Cream Sandwich Cake, recipe is below.  Over the next couple of months I'll continue to share the recipes that we thought were fantastic. So, stay tuned. ;o)

Every year, in July, I have to force myself to start thinking ahead to autumn, which is okay by me.  I plop myself into my craft room, put a chill in the air and start thinking about pumpkins and crows.  So, that's exactly what I've done. I've made some new crow and pumpkin crock fillers and have some more projects in the works. I'm also attempting to remake a lot of items that currently say sold.  As always, if you're interested in something that is sold or you'd like me to custom make an item for you, just send me an e-mail.

Have a great month!
Prim blessings from my family to yours
