A day in pictures

Here are a bunch of pictures I wanted to share. I will write more on an entry style later today.




windowsill
Kitchen casing: I got so tired of looking at the old, yellow and ugly window casing on my kitchen window that I bought some pine planks and redid my window casing. I did. Noone else, all me. I love my nail gun!!
Picture 091
The living room didn’t even have a window casing. It has been pretty much hid all winter long by the curtains, but now that summer is here.. I couldn’t stand that anymore so I made one!! Toolbelt Diva move on over!
Picture 096
Here’s what it looks like now, new wood casing and painted white. Muuuuch better!
newcabinets
I didn’t have enough cabinets in my kitchen, so I added that corner shelf. I am painting my cabinets next week.
joesgrasshead
Grasshead: Joe made this at school, planted the seeds and then brought it home to me almost fully grown. Every time I look at this thing it cracks me up.
beforeFGT
I picked some green tomatos today and then fried them according to a recipe off of www.bitchypoo.com They were awesome! First time I have made them and the first time I have eaten them.
AfterFGT
Fgt after: Here’s what they looked like before everyones forks swooped in to claim them all.
freshblueberries
Fresh Blueberries that we picked today. I made muffins with some of them. There are about three cups there, that’s a big bowl.

gangsallhere
Gangs all here: I swear it is all I can do to keep from picking them up. They are the sweetest things!

Pretty! (The window casings *and* the kittens!)

Hehe, Bobbette Veelah.
Thanks Robyn, I love the new casings so much more and tomorrow I am doing the bathroom window. Weeee.
The kittens are so cute I can't stand it! The one started out all black and is gradually turning lighter brown. I am just wondering who the Dad is. The only male I have seen around here is part bobcat. One can dream... how pretty they would be!

Dayum! You've been busy! And I love grasshead! I got a cup of grass too, but I managed to kill it. How does one kill grass? I'm horrible!

Also, fried green tomatoes are AWESOME! Now I've got a craving!

I have killed a cactus before... it is sooo possible!
That is my version of paying it forward.. Robyn got me wanting to try them and on to you... I had to try them because this is my first year growing them, tis neat I say!
