Just sayin'....

Design books I love....

Which are your favorite for decorating ideas for your own home?

In the vineyard

Saturday, Joe went out to our little vineyard to prune our now 3 year old vines.

He brought me along to cheerlead, I suppose and gave me a glass of port to sip while he worked.

Puffing on a cigar, he cut back the vines  according to the book Wines and Vines directions. Hopefully this year, we will be able to harvest some grapes, and, perhaps, even be able to make our own wine.

Always wanted to try this...

I have always wanted  to try making  artichokes....it was easy! And delicous! If you are eating low carb, give the recipe on this site a try: http://simplyrecipes.com/recipes/how_to_cook_and_eat_an_artichoke/
