My Hodge Podge Day...

Good Tuesday Evening everyone... 

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend.. 

The weather here has been lovely by the Bay of Fundy.. 

We had to make another quick trip home.  

Awoke this morning around 6 am and boogied down here to St. Martins.. 

We have Old Home Week coming up and expecting a bit of company so today I didn't even open the shop.. 

Just did a hodge podge of things.. 

I took a few pics as I went along  just to fill you in on my day.. 

Hope you are interested.. grin.. 

Bought a bunch of plants that were on sale... 

Herbs, geraniums, ivy, hens and chicks and such...

They were practically giving them away.. 

Now is the time to get some great deals here in New Brunswick.. 

They will probably flourish especially with the wonderful weather we are having.. 

Made some fudge to sell at the shop... 

I guess I shared the recipe with you before HERE

See the dear fudge dish I found at the thrift shop... 

Glass and only a bit over two dollars.. 

Made this old stand by salad today... 

I have been making this for simply years but I don't think I have shared the recipe before.. 

Another one of my famous a bit of this and a bit of that king of recipe..smile..

Tuna Macaroni Salad

Cook or use left over pasta *whatever amount you need.. You can always add 2 cans of tuna.. 

If you cook it then rinse and cool. 

Add chopped up veggies ... 

I always use cucumber, green peppers, chopped white or green onion and sliced mushrooms .... 

Add a can of drained tuna...*or two..

To make the dressing just place a big dollop of mayonnaise (not Miracle Whip),  half again as much good Caesar Dressing and fresh lemon juice, salt and pepper... 

I also add a speck of red pepper flakes... 

And some chopped parsley.. 

Mix well.. 

Add more dressing if needed.. 

Serve with fresh wedges of lemon.. 

Delicious with fresh crusty rolls.. 

On with the day.. 

Unpacked some craft supplies from home..

Beeswax, a new stamp pad and stamper..

Strained some rosemary infused oil....

Making some homemade rose potpourri... 

There are so many moss roses this year.. 

I just put them in my dehydrator and add some bay leaves and such and some rose oil... 

My Mom loves this... 

Oh yes... and I cleaned my kitchen and pantry...

This old cottage has two pantries.. 

This is the working one and the other one is just for pretties.. 

If you know what I mean.. 

Anyway, my dears that is all for tonight.. 

The wind is blowing and I am not sure if the tide is in or out but I think I will go to bed early.. 

Just drinking my evening tea and listening to Sammi snore on the couch.. He was up early, eh!

smile..
