A Gloriously beautiful day in Florida

*

Good Morning,  well actually Good Afternoon

Sweet Friends.......................

*

Since it is 1:01p.m., and I didn't get up till 11:45

because I didn't go to sleep until after 4 a.m.!

*

Not that I didn't try...........went to bed and

was tired but all the sudden for some crazy

reason,  I was wide awake and tossing and

turning and decided to just give it up and

get up and work on Valentines Day cards

for the family.

*

  Got 3 cards started,  I  always

do the front and backs first,  and then work

on the words later,  unless I have some

particular things the Lord brings to mind

to say anyway!!  That happens to me at

times where I am laying there maybe thinking

about a card I have started and all the

sudden words start coming to me,  so

I have learned if I don't get up and at least

write them down,  they will be gone in

the morning!! lol

*

Well, got up and had 2 of those lovely

strawberry thingies you see in my header

picture.  I will tell you about it and some

others next Tuesday.

*

So glad yall like the idea of the Heart Tips

Tuesday.  You hear so much about heart

healthy this and that,  I wasn't sure how it

would go over,  but I do know that some

of the things that I can share could really

have helped me as I was learning about

this new way of living!!

*

I have learned plenty from books and

web sites but hopefully this could make

it just a wee bit easier for someone else!

*

I am planning to make an onion/garlic

pork roast for dinner,  along with some

roasted parsnips and sweet potato

(I usually would do carrots,  but I am out)

and too lazy to run to the store!!  lol

and a nice salad with a new homemade

ranch dressing I am trying out!!

*

We had one we love.........but Sam's has

stopped carrying it for some dumb reason!!

It sells like hotcakes!!  and it is a lite

ranch dressing with good oils.

Oh Well,  gotta improvise now!!

*

I find that for some reason this time of

the year is my favorite time for cooking.

Guess cause it is cool out and it warms

up my kitchen,  and I can't work outside

and the house doesn't need any redecorating

till Spring, and since I don't have a lot of

other stuff going on I can focus on it more!

I am sure my hubby just loves that!! lol

*

It is a bright, beautiful, sunny, blue sky

60 degree day outside,  so I gotta get

out there for at least 10 mins to feel

that Sun on my body.  Did you know

sitting in the sun just a lil helps with

depression cause it boost your melatonin

levels and of course,  there is that Vit D

benefit, we all need plenty of.

Key is just about 10-20 mins at a time,

No Crispy Critter Day!

*

Well,  you girlies have a fabulously

fun day!!

*

So what are you making for din din??

*

I am trying to see but I just can't

quite make it out!! lol

*

See ya next time!

Hugs N' Blessings,
