Recipe Review
Today’s
Recipe and Location: Pineapple
Fruit Balls
Found
in: The Pioneer Woman blog
When I saw the title of this recipe I had a flashback to an
old Elvis Presley movie called Blue Hawaii. Elvis came home from the war
and his Dad wanted him to work on their pineapple plantation. I think the name
of the company was The Great Hawaii Pineapple Company. Why does that stick in
my head? There can’t be much room
left in there due to the foolish trivia and memories that fill my head. Oh
well, I know that pineapple is one of my worst allergies so this recipe is out
(even though it does sound refreshing).
Random Reflections - Bucket List
One
of my favorite things to do in the winter is to create quilt tops. Sewing and
knitting are much more fun in the winter than they are in the summer. I seem to
nest all of the time once the weather begins to turn. This morning I rearranged
my closet and planned what I would wear to school for the next two weeks. Yikes
– that’s just nuts. Oh well – the cold is coming and I need to gear up to begin
sewing.

Wants and Wishes
I
want to learn how much my surgery is going to cost next year and hope and wish
that it won’t break the bank. This
has been on my mind for awhile, and planning is the key to any elective
surgery. Oh well – maybe a trip to the doctors for estimates is the solution to
this problem.
