I just found your Blog by reading the comments on the Susan Branch Blog.... and I love it! Wish I could post a pic of the heart-shaped potato chip I pulled out of a bag a few weeks ago (and yes, I took a photo of it) When I saw your ♥ potatoes, my first thought was "Ah-ha- that must be where my chip came from!" Hmmm...the things we find entertaining :)
Ann, thanks for your kind words and for stopping by! A heart-shaped potato chip...I think that just has to be a good luck sign...yay for you! I really enjoy Susan's blog too...I've been using her cookbooks and loving the whimsical artwork for years...oh, to visit Martha's Vineyard. It looks so pretty! Thanks again...it was nice "meeting" you!
a goat wrangler, chicken whisperer, bee maven, and farmers’ market baker renovating an 1864 farmhouse. I like simple things, old things, old ways. I'm the definition of "homebody" and you can always find me in an apron. Welcome to my world...stick around, I hope you'll find it's fun!
Things I love...
Sunday dinners
tire swings
the laughter of children
cross-country train rides
barn sales & auctions
old farmhouses
small towns
porch swings
country clotheslines
old-fashioned barbershops
John Deere 4020's
farmers' markets
living in the Heartland
twinkling fireflies
simple country pleasures
the comforts of home
Now Open!
fresh from my farmhouse kitchen...simple, homemade, cottage foods!
I cannot conceivably influence the world's destiny, but I can make my own life more worthwhile.
I can give some help to some people, that is not vital to all the world's problems, and yet I think if everyone did just that, we might see quite a different world in our time!"

"It is not the things you have that make you happy.
It is love, and kindness, and helping each other, and just plain being good. "
-Laura Ingalls Wilder
"The ordinary arts we practice every day at home are of more importance to the soul than their simplicity might suggest."
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines.
Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover."
-Mark Twain
"In all of living, have much fun and laughter.
Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured."
-Gordon B. Hinckley
"Life is short,
and it's up to you to make it sweet."
-Sadie Delany
"The real things haven't changed...
It is still best to be honest and truthful; to make the most of what we have; to be happy with simple pleasures; and have courage when things go wrong."
-Laura Ingalls Wilder
"Love is the thing that enables a woman to sing while she mops up the floor after her husband has walked across it in his barn boots."
