Frosted Grapes

Where have you been all my life?

This year at our annual 4th of July picnic,
 my friend Beth brought these fantastic snacks and now we are hooked!

These have got to be the best snack ever! They are just too good not to share.

Here's how it's done....

Take the grapes off the stems and rinse them.

Put the wet grapes in a ziploc baggie and cover with dry Jell-o.
Toss to coat all the grapes and then place in the refrigerator for at least an hour.

That is all there is to it.
 The final product is amazing!

Thank you Beth!

Old School Map

We recently saw one of these old school maps hanging in an antique store.

 I knew right then I had to have one.

Here it is..

I know it is not conventional but I love it!



Blog Stalking...Burlap lovin

I realize that Burlap is going to go out of style one day, but not any time soon.
 I  don't think I will ever grow tired of this wonderful fabric!

I love what Mariam created with her stash of burlap ribbon.
 You can be sure you will be seeing burlap in my chandelier at Christmas this year.

Last but not least, nobody does Burlap like "Buckets of Burlap"

I love how she incorporates burlap into her everyday.

James Taylor and a Trip to Nashville

Next week, I am making a quick trip to Nashville.

 I love going there simply because you never know who you might see!

Now, I'm not a star chaser, but it is neat to think that you could run into a

 famous person just by being in town.

Since I am a country music fan, it seems even more exciting.

The reason I am saying this is because I just found out that this guy is going

 to be in town at the same time I will be there!

I was lucky enough to be able to see him in concert years ago and, Hands Down, it was the best concert I have ever attended!

I have been a fan for as long as I can remember.

 His music just speaks to me.

Me and a few million others, I know. hahaha

Who knows....It could happen!
