Spring is Here!

Another beautiful day here in Western Wisconsin.... I was outside all afternoon raking my flower beds and composting leaves. I even took time to take a snooze in my hammock. Olivia and our guest Chloe joined me in the hammock. My husband worked until dark on tilling up our garden and mixing in our Llama droppings. Now we just need to wait until are plants are ready to plant and the ground is warm enough. Over a month to go for that. I usually plant Memorial day weekend. We have a planting marathon that weekend. Our kids and grandkids all show up for the event... lots of fun and work. Well more work to be done tomorrow so it's off to bed I go... hi ho I go!

Hi there Blogger friends, I have decided to host a cookbook giveaway. This cookbook is the one I made about 3 years ago. Inside you will find some of my recipes I used in our Cafe as well as ones that some of my friends submitted for me to use in my book. In addition to the wonderful recipes it is also a piece of art. I had two of my watercolor images transfered to the front and back cover. There are also some helpful tips in the book as well as a few quotes. I have also included our story on how we came into the Cafe/Gift Shoppe/Antique business as well as our Bed and Breakfast. In order to be put into the drawing all you need to do is be a follower. If you are already a follower just state that. If you want to have more chances to win have your friends stop on over to my blog to sign up to be a follower. Please ask them to let me know who sent them to my blog and I will put your name in my hat again. So you can have lots of chances to WIN! GOOD LUCK! Hugs to all of you...... Da
