So HaPpY...
that spring has arrived and I'm finally getting all recuperated from having neck surgery. Been home and off work for close to a month now and finally able to get up and about to do things around the house.
I just received this present I got for myself (for having surgery and all)...
....I LOVE IT!
It is also in honor of the royal wedding.
It is from Etsy....another LOVE of mine.
Here are some old bottles I embellished with jute twine and vintage rhinestone jewelry pieces.
I think they tuned out pretty pretty, don't you?
HAPPY EARTH DAY!
Reduce, reuse, recycle ALWAYS
I really do want to get back to blogging more. Thanks to my readers.
Please leave me comments. I truly LOVE them!!!!!!!!

Cheddar Chive Beer Bread Recipe
This is one of my favorite 'quick' recipes and is so yummy with all the soups and hearty foods this time of year. I use fresh chives when in season and use chives I've frozen when I bake this bread all winter long.
Make sure you make a sandwich or two with this beer bread.
I love this bread with chicken, tuna, or
ham salad too.
Or just spread the warm bread with even more butter.....
.......is your mouth watering yet?
CHEDDAR CHIVE BEER BREAD
3 Cups self-rising flour
1/2 Cup sugar
2 T chopped fresh or frozen chives
3/4 Cup sheddred cheddar cheese
1 12 ounce beer
1/4 Cup butter, melted
Stir together first 5 ingredients; pour into lightly greased 9 X 5" loaf pan.
Bake @350 F for 45 minutes. Pour melted butter over top.
Bake 10 more minutes.
De-lish!!!
