Making a Difference


I've mentioned before that my dad is a member of the American Legion. This great organization provides countless hours of service to the community. Have you ever attended a funeral where Military Rights were performed? You have the American Legion to thank for that.
Right now, the American Legion of Utah is asking for our help~ they are supporting a contest that is being sponsored by Home Depot, and will benefit the Utah State Veteran's Home.
Please go to www.facebook.com/homedepotfoundation Click on the "Aprons in Action" icon to be taken to the voting page, and vote for the Utah State Veteran's Home You can vote every 24 hours now through March 31st.
Won't you please help us out?

Is It Spring Yet?

I guess not.


7 more inches of snow last night.
We're all getting anxious to take our new (to us) trailer on an excursion.
There's just one tiiiiny little problem:


But~Only 35 days until SPRING BREAK!

Note to husband  self: If the house you are interested in buying comes with a snow-blower...
Just sayin'...just sayin'

Dare I?

This set of dish towels has been languishing in the bottom of my cedar chest for nearly 30 years.


 My mother made these for me 30+ years ago.
I'm thinking it's high time they saw the light of day!

I'm just not sure I can bring myself to actually use them~ but it seems a shame for them to just sit in the bottom of my cedar chest.
(With another set of dish towels, and several sets of pillowcases!)
I figure they will either just rot away...
Or I can put them to use and enjoy them!

I have thought about framing them...but I would have to cut them down, and I'm not sure I want to do that~ they are nice, big towels!
  Right now, they are just sitting, waiting for me to decide...
Such a dilemma!
