  Good morning, blogging friends...well, I'm officially back to blogging...after a much needed break and lots of prayers I am returning...how often I will post remains to be seen...thank you to all of you who sent emails and who remained Followers of my blog even with my absence...it means a lot!  

    I'm sure most of you are on the "Pinterest" bandwagon...it really is a wonderful site and I've found so many great recipes.  I recently found myself with some over-ripe bananas.  Usually I would make banana nut bread, but wanting to try something different, I went to Pinterest.  Here's what I found:

  This is the most A-M-A-Z-I-N-G cookie ever!  It was really easy, too!  And, I'm all about recipes that are easy...no complicated cookies for this chick...  

  Sure wish you could taste them...you definitely can't eat just one!   ♥ Kim   Graphic by: http://www.gooseberrypatch.com

I know it's been awhile blogging friends...I'm sorry I haven't been around...lots on my mind and on my heart...lots of prayers have been said and today I received my answer...it came in the form of an email from "The Brave Girl's Club."  

  So for now, dear blogging friends, I'm going to say Good Bye...only the good Lord knows how long I'll be away...

~♥ Kitchen Corner ♥~

I enjoy spending time in my kitchen.  Whenever I was little I spent a lot of time with my Gram in her kitchen.  I'd watch her make pies, helped her cut squares for her quilts, play cards with her or just spend time talking with her.  I wanted a kitchen that was as welcoming as her kitchen was.

I thought I'd share a little corner of my kitchen with you.

I like to keep things handy for my family to snack on.  There's usually something yummy in the cookie jar or on the cake plate.  I love having my Keurig available for a quick Cup O' Joe.  I keep the K-cups handy in the bottom bowl.  Above it are various breakfast bars for when we're on the run in the morning and we don't have time for a good breakfast.  I have started to collect juicers.  I have two on the table that I bought at thrift stores and the green one on the window sill belonged to my Gram.  The school chalkboard was given to me by a friend.  I like to change the message on it using my Chalk Ink markers.   Click Here to Visit the Chalk Ink Website!

Thank you for stopping by...I always enjoy the company.
