Such lovely treats...

Hello dear ladies.. 

Hope you had a lovely day.. 

Today I worked literally all day cleaning my pantry.. 

When you haven't been using it for several months it really needs a good turning out... 

So relieved to have that job behind me.. 

I love to go in there and bake something up.. 

Now it is clear sailing.. smile.. 

Actually.. I did make this ...

Zucchini  Pie

You bake it in a pie pan and it is really moist and delicious.. 

Most of us have lots of zucchini  or we can get some.. 

This is one way of using them up.. 

Here is the recipe for you.. 

2/3 cup of brown sugar

1/4 cup of butter

1 tsp. of vanilla

1 egg

1 cup flour

1 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. cinnamon

1/2 tsp. cloves

1 cup of grated zucchini  

1/2 cup of nuts or raisins,,,

Just cream the sugar, butter and vanilla.. Then add egg and mix well.. 

Sift in the flour, soda and spices and mix for a minute or so.. 

Add the zucchini and stir well.. 

Pour into a greased 9 inch pie pan..

Bake in a 350 degrees F. oven for 25 minutes.

Turn out onto a rack and cool.. 

Meanwhile stir up an icing for the top.. 

1 1/2 cups of icing sugar

3 T. butter

1/4 tsp. cloves

3-5 tsp. coffee cream or can milk.. (whole milk will do)

Whisk together and spread on.. 

Terry thought this would be good for breakfast.. smile.. 

It only takes a few minutes to make and is a nice treat which does not last long but if it does it will get more moist... 

Thanksgiving is over again for us Canadians so what do we do the next day or so?

Right.. 

Make turkey soup... smile.. 

I always add barley to my turkey soup... 

Do you? 

Did you know that when you have a blog you make the best and dearest friends.. 

They may live way far away but you feel as though they live next door to you.. 

And sometimes they send you presents and letters.. smile..

Well.. 

I received this lovely gift from my friend Trace... 

I was so excited when Terry brought home this lovely parcel from the post office.. 

And inside was this dear gift...

A wonderful strawberry mat made by Trace herself.. 

Wrapped in kraft coloured tissue and tied with jute with the button packages as the bow..

Isn't it lovely?

A dear little woolie berry along with some strawberry recipe cards.. 

Trace and I love recipes.. In fact we like a lot of the same things.. 

She also loves the Lord and old dishes.. grin..

Her blog can be found HERE..

THANK YOU DEAR FRIEND.. 

You are so thoughtful.. 

Well, dear hearts... 

This all for today.. 

Hope you are all doing well in your part of the world.. 

Thank you for dropping by and visiting.. 

So glad you did and I look forward to hearing from you all.. 

So thankful tonight that we have a prayer answering God who specializes is miracles.. 

There is power in prayer, eh? 

Mark 11:24

God bless ... 

HAPPY MONDAY...

Good Morning my dears... 

Happy Monday to you all.. 

We had a wonderful blessed Sunday and woke up to a beautiful Monday morning.. 

I just wanted to share that my sweet friend Trace over at 

GRANNY TRACE SCRAPS AND SQUARES

has awarded me the versatile blogger award.. 

As I told Trace I am an award free blog but she only nominated one blog and as it was me I could not turn it down.. 

She is a dear girl and we both feel as though we have known each other for a long time.. 

If she likes something you can be sure that I like it, too.. smile.. 

And the fact that we both love the Lord Jesus binds us together.. 

Please go over and check out Trace's BLOG as she is full of sweet wisdom and stitches up a storm.. 

I am supposed to tell 7 things about myself that you do not know.. 

I think really that you girls know it all.. smile..

Let's see.. 

1.  I was married when I graduated from high school.. 

(Imagine!!)

2.  We will be married 42 years next month.. 

3.  When I am gone my children will find many half finished short or long stories in my list books.. grin.. 

4.  I almost always wear black.. 

5.  I will not fly... in a plane or anything else.. 

6.  I love cats..

7.  I would dearly love to have... 3 sheep, 2 goats, 1 mule, 12 chickens, and 1 turkey...

I just read these to Terry and he said that the mule was already here...LOL... He's funny!!

There!!

You have all of my deep dark secrets.. grin.. 

I am to nominate some other blogs which I do by asking you to read my blog list.... smile.. 

They are all wonderful and none of us deserve an award any faster than the next one.. 

Thank you dear TRACE for all your kind words.. 

I appreciate it very much.. 

God bless all you sweet girls today.. 

Love and Prayers, 

Faye...
