I have only made one large quilt in the past. Most of my projects are wall hangings or throw quilts or baby quilts. When I started working on a quilt for our bed, I knew it was going to be a bit of a project to keep it all organized.
Just one section has over 100 pieces pieces! So it was a lot to keep it straight as I worked. Fortunately, the pattern was very good at helping keep it together during the cutting and initial sewing.
Cletus “Clip” Freitag was born on September 16, 1914 in Lee County, Iowa. His parents were William Henry Freitag and Catherine Bernadine Menke.
Last week, I posted about making fresh pesto from the basil I grew in the garden. This week, I am going to talk about one of my favorite recipes that uses pesto – stuffed chicken breast with prosciutto.
I haven’t done a lot of editing on these pictures, but I got such a smile from them that I wanted to share. When Carl and Georgie were dating, they did several sets of pictures where they would pose one and then the other in a similar setting. Here are a couple of fun ones.
I really enjoy using fresh from the garden food in my cooking. This year I grew basil, so it’s time to make some pesto! It’s an easy to make recipe that can add so much flavor to your food.
I have been working on scanning in some photos from the many boxes we have. I found a couple of fun photos of Walt’s brother’s and cousins from the 1950s.
It’s popular right now to enjoy food bowls. The idea started with Hawaiian poke bowls – fish, vegetables, and sauce. They have recently become common, with restaurants popping up all over the place and options in the freezer and deli sections of the grocery.
I try to put up posts that relate to events that happened around the day of the post. Walt’s cousin Bertha got married on this date in 1939. Walt is the youngest of his cousins. I wasn’t able to find any pictures of David in the ones I have scanned in so far.
We love to use the poblano peppers from our garden to make stuffed peppers, but sometimes the peppers are too small or tear when I am peeling them. I wrote about that process here. I decided to see if I could change a recipe for stuffed peppers into a casserole.
This time of year, people are heading back to school, so I pulled a few fun photos of our family’s school days. When we were visiting my folks earlier this year, they had found a bunch of my old school pictures.
