Continuing Along......Fabulous Fun Friday...

As you can see...

We had a great Friday...

Erika and Vivian came for a visit...

First...

I marched over to my 2 neighbours to show off our cutie pie...

Then...
 
They fed the Seagulls...

We lounged on the deck..under the umbrella of course!!!

Those first toes are Erika's ...not mine!!!

And those hot pink sandles are Vivian's!!!! 

We ate dinner on the sunporch...

Vivian amused herself on an old afghan that I had...she had already had her dinner... 

A big old fat raccoon slept in the tree ALLLL day.....

After they left...

My boyfriend and I retired back to the beach deck...

These are my toes!!! hahaha!! With the old feet to match!!!

Watched different ducks go by...

Listened to the Baltimore Orioles calling to each other...

Another fire was ready....with leaves etc from the beach...

We will save that for another weekend.... 

One more day to go...how am I doing????


Hope you all are having a great day...isn't this weather unbelievable???

See 'Ya In A Few Days....Some Baking To Drool Over...

We are off to the cottage for a few days...

I have a list as long as my arm...

Of things that need to be done...

Thought I would leave you...

With 2 of my loaves...

All ready to go in the oven....

One with raspberries on top...


And the other with blueberries...

DELISH!!!

I always sprinkle a little brown sugar on top...


What wouldn't taste better with a sprinkling of brown sugar????

I can't think of anything!!!  

I have also been substituting Buttermilk for regular milk...

No need to gloat...but...it improves EVERYTHING!!!  

Hope you all have a great few days...

I will be busy as a bee...

And I promise to take tons of pictures...and report back!!!

See 'ya....



                           Cheers!  :o)
