Crafty Snowmen
I found my inspiration on Pinterest and made my own. I also made a set for my friend. They are a wonderful addition to my Christmas décor. (I have a soft spot for Snowmen... LOL)
Simply put, I used some 4x4 posts (cut @ 15 ", 12" & 9") , some paint, material and accessories for eyes and noses. I LOVE how they turned out!
Happy Holidays Merry Christmas and Everything Else!

Impressive Clouds
I have a Photography Hobby, too!
We get some great weather shots here in Florida. I seem to have an obsession with taking pictures of clouds.

Fire Pit Cooler!
I turned an ordinary large clay pot into an Outdoor Cooler for our FirePit area!
I bought this at The Home Depot for about $20. It stands about 2 feet tall and about 2 feet diameter. It's available in a few other colors, too. And the best part, there is a small drainage hole in the bottom.

It sits outside all year round, looks great and holds alot. Plus, it's inexpensive making a second pot within the budget!
Thanks for stopping by today. Have fun sprucing up your yard!
Cheddar Potatoes - Grilled Style
I grill ALOT living here in Florida. The weather is almost laways favorable to cook my food over the hot coals of the grill. Ok, so maybe not hot coals. I have a gas grill.
If meat is going on the grill, I try to add my sides as well. Potatoes are super easy to prepare and put on the grill. And they cook relatively quickly too.
My picture doesn't do this tasty side justice, but believe me, they are delicious!
So, Here's what you do:

So, Here's what you do:
Cube a couple of potatoes and place in mixing bowl. I think there are about 4 here.
Add about 1/2 cup sour cream, 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese and salt to taste, about a teaspoon and a half.
And Mix it all up. If you think it's too dry, add more sour cream. Like it more cheesy? Toss in more!
Now it goes into a foil pouch. I always make mine since I always have foil on hand. But I know Reynolds makes pre-made foil pouches that are awesomely easy to fill and use.
This is the point when I turn the grill on. The foil pouch is placed on the top vegetable / bun rack. (You know, that 1/4 size rack above the main one). I let the potatoes cook while the grill heats up. They finish cooking as the meat cooks, so total cooking time is only about 30 minutes.
Thanks for stopping by and Enjoy!

Baked Ravioli
Okay, this is an AWESOME, EASY week night dinner. And it calls for 3, YES, 3 ingredients!
How yummy does this look? This dish always gets loads of smiles and anticipation! But not too much anticipation because it bakes in like 30 minutes! Add a fresh green salad and maybe some garlic bread and you've got yourself a great well-rounded healthy dinner!

Here are the 3 Ingredients:
This beauty goes in a 350 F degree pre-heated oven and bakes for about 30 minutes. Or until it is hot and bubbly.

I made this dish for a sick friend's family and did just that! I covered it with foil and wrote the cooking directions right on top in Sharpie marker.
I have also been know to mix some sauce and a bit of cheese throughout the ravioli before topping it with more of both!
