Quaker Farms...the morning after the snow.  The temperature did not climb much today, but chimney's are smokin' in many a New England home! 

January 17th and 21st






Making pizza crusts for diner, and some to freeze for later.  Jan 21st, the first snow since the dreadful Halloween Storm, baking pizza,  McLauhlin Vineyard wine bottle (our local winery) and a pepperoni apizza for Johnny.

January 16th


Last night after work, I had to drop my car off at the dealer for repairs, and it turned out to be a very long wait for my ride home...an hour & 1/2 of watching the comings and goings of Arby's drivethru, lol  This picture of the Arby sign, makes me think of Texas!  I guess it could be anywhere, USA, but for some reason, fast food chains always remind me of Florida or Texas...Hmmm, maybe the pickup truck has something to do with it :)

January 15th 2012




Meet the new workhorse!  It was a long time coming, but we finally sprung for a new Quadrafire woodstove!  Of course it was the coldest day of the winter so far, but the boys came thru, and they got her in!  (gotta love men with skills, lol) Unfortunately, we couldn't really fire her up to full potential, but tonight, we're going to be toasty!

January 3rd

This is my 'temporary' shelf, while waiting to paint my cupboard.  I actually like the open shelving, and would love to have one made to look built in, from floor to ceiling, and deep enough to hold my food processor, mixer, etc. Another thing to add to my 'would love' list  :)

About Me

ct, United States
Hi, I'm Priscilla. This blog is basically a diary, in photos, so that i might capture tiny pieces of time...that pass, far too quickly...and the older i get, the faster time passes. So here's a little bit about me: I live in Southern New England, (one of the worlds most beautiful places,in my opinion) I'm a Mom of 3, and grandma to 1 beautiful little girl. I love my kids, my grandaughter & my husband, more than anything in the world, BUT...there ARE other things I LOVE too...like pizza! & summertime & ice cold beer & red wine...brisk Autumn days, sitting by the fireplace, old houses, stone walls, flea markets, second hand shops, old painted furniture, decorating (and then redecorating). Warm sunny mornings on the porch, Earl Grey tea, and sultry late afternoons at the beach, and taking pictures. And Last, but by no means least, home.
