A tiny piece of tomato, which must have come from today's 'working' (LOL) lunch - a tomato sandwich.

Extra Credit Question:

Do you or have you ever had a clothesline ?
Hardly any houses in Australia don't have clothes lines so I've always had them except when I lived in an apartment. I don't use the one I have currently as it must have been installed by a tall person - it's too uncomfortable for me to reach up!


Bonus Question:

Lets talk about cooking!!

What are some of your favorite "Secret Ingredients" to use when cooking ?
I don't think I have any ... am not a keen cook by any stretch of the imagination.

Have you ever hidden anything in the food while cooking(like veggies) and not tell ?
I had a stepson who passionately hated pumpkin soup. We called it carrot soup and he loved it.The other stepson wouldn't eat eggs or milk, but devoured my Yorkshire Puddings - we simply didn't tell him they were made from flour, milk and eggs.

It's the weekend for me - happy Friday to you all!

Business cards and reminder post it notes


Extra Credit Question:

We had one while I was growing up.

Our HOA doesn't allow them, however there was a new "law" passed that overrides the HOA if folks want one.

With all the creepy crawlies we have here in FL I am not sure I would want to hang stuff out. Especially during "love bug" season


Bonus Question:

Lets talk about cooking!!

What are some of your favorite "Secret Ingredients" to use when cooking ?

I always add a couple spoons of Brown Sugar to my Tomato sauce

I add ground up almonds or pecans to my boxed brownie mix and also sprinkle some on top

A sprinkle of baking powder in you pancake mix makes them even fluffier



Have you ever hidden anything in the food while cooking(like veggies) and not tell ?
No hubby likes everything

I do have a friend who told me she does this and folks who claim not to like the item never knew
and she wonders why I keep turning down her "why don't the 2 of you come over for dinner" invitations



** off on today's adventures, I hope everyone has a great day !!!!

Good morning!!!



Lift up your keyboard
Ok what did you find under there ? I have a laptop and I just brought it from it's home in the spare room to the kitchen table so nothing is under it but a clean table



Do you or have you ever had a clothesline ? I do and use it all the time. I need to get another "retractable" one to put under the awning when it rains.


Lets talk about cooking!!

What are some of your favorite "Secret Ingredients" to use when cooking ?
I love cooking but I don't have any secret ingredients but I do love my 4C's whole wheat seasoned breadcrumbs. I couldn't find them in any store so I ordered a case online Just in time for all the zucchini and squash from my garden



Have you ever hidden anything in the food while cooking(like veggies) and not tell ? LOL..I just tried this but it didn't go over well I was trying t find a recipe for all the zucchini I have from my garden. I came across one for Mock Apple Pie You used cooked zucchini chunks/slices instead of apples. I tried it and hubby said "what are you making"? I told him apple pie "where did you the apples from" Oh I had them He tried the finished version and knew I tried to dupe him It actually wasn't bad but it did not taste like apples.




Health & happiness Day
Summer Leisure Day


Happy Friday!!
