Mooooo................

Hi, Everyone..

hope things are going well with you.

I LOVE ANIMALS...

but it's farm animals that I adore.

Well...let me restate that...

it's PAINTINGS of farm animals that I truly love.
You already know how much I love these sassy pigs...:)

“Piglet sidled up to Pooh from behind. "Pooh?" he whispered.
"Yes, Piglet?"
"Nothing," said Piglet, taking Pooh's hand. "I just wanted to be sure of you.”

I was surfing ETSY SHOPS the other day and happened on the cutest
COW PRINT..
YES...that cutie pie in my new header...
♥ ♥ ♥ 
after looking at it for about 3 days...
 I ordered her.


Believe me when I say that she is a 
COW AFTER MY OWN HEART......

 

When she arrived at SWEET NOTHINGS,
the search began for THE FRAME.

...nothing fancy...
....nothing TOO rustic...
NOTHING that would, in any way, take away for HER  adorableness....
and, it had to be very...VERY...affordable.

The very first store I went in...
HOBBY LOBBY...
had the PERFECT ONE..♥

(I wanted to tell you that that beautiful, YOUNG girl and the handsome fella was Mr. Sweet and bj but, somehow I knew you'd NEVER believe it in a million years..)

How much more perfect than white with
black "spots"..

ok, I know they aren't

COW SPOTS...but close...

The problem...it was $60.
Sooo, even tho I am the most IMPATIENT lady on the planet and when I "want it...I want it right now" I knew those frames would go on sale for half price the very next week...
and I knew I could wait for that sale..
$30 sounded MUCH better. 
 

I put a black mat and that amazing frame around
this sassy, cute little girl cow and
fell totally in love forever.

I TOLD her I loved her.....

She looks right at home where I hung her.

She is so perfect for that room that I can't keep from going back in there and staring at her

I just LOVE it when I find something that gives me such pleasure and...
F.U.N.

She is hanging at the opposite  end of our living room from
THE PIGS...

Another thing...
she brings more BLACK & WHITE to the end of this large room

“We'll be Friends Forever, won't we, Pooh?' asked Piglet.
"Even longer,"  Pooh answered.”

PINK SATURDAY

 Regarding the COCONUT CREME PIE

P I'm out of town right now, away from my recipes, but remembered I'd taken a photo of her recipe.

I hope you can read it...and, of course, any questions, I'll be home on Sat night and you can email me then.

Now, remember, this pie recipe is very old..mother*in*law would be well  over 100 now and her mother*in*law gave the recipe to her. Actually, no telling how old it is...
POINT BEING.....
the recipe doesn't call for any spices like cinnamon or even vanilla (I add it, tho) and no butter.
The taste is awesome to us...  maybe because his mom made it. I hope you will enjoy it as well...just taste of the filling once you get it mixed up...add more sugar if you want it sweeter...or....add more sugar to your topping...and it should be just right.
xoxo
