Was Yesterday Monday?

I knew I was totally free of work when I began wondering if it was Monday. Really, what day of the week it is doesn't matter. In spite of that way of life, I still love Fridays.

Anyway....Monday was a lot of fun this week. I made a recipe based an experience in Santa Fe a couple of years ago. I think it was Carol Cassara that brought it to my attention. She talked about baking cauliflower with a sage flavored butter. I can see the restaurant she was talking about. I love Santa Fe. And the dish is absolutely delicious.

Roasted Cauliflower
  • Coat the bottom of a baking dish with olive oil
  • Place washed and disassembled cauliflower in a baking dish. 
  • Crush together sage leaves, chives, garlic, salt and olive oil.
  • Rub cauliflower with the mixture.
  • Cover
  • Bake at 350 for one hour.
  • Yum!
You are going to love it.

I found a picture of a very small house online yesterday that I loved. I want to recreate my park model using the picture as a guide. 
This is the way it looks now!
Is that purple do you think? I am not sure our park owner would go for purple but I think the style is darling!

So there you have it...the makings of a wonderful Monday. Happy Tuesday everyone.

I would love it if you would beam me up to Facebook or Twitter or Google+...make my Tuesday even better. After all it is all about me. :)

  1. I think that is a blue-violet not a true purple. Cute idea to remake your park model. What colors are acceptable to the owner? So many possibilities.

    1. I'm not sure and I am not asking. The minute I do they will tell me what I don't want to know. :)

  2. It's a nifty color and it will make the house stand out - which may be what you want in a park where everything looks alike.

    1. Not so much really. I just want it to be neat and clean and most of all, not look older than the rock of ages!

  3. I don't think it's purple either. And as much as I'm a huge purple lover, I actually prefer the color you have yours now! Sorry. LOL

    1. Ok, I agree but I love the "style" of the tiny house. Don't you?

  5. Our covenants wouldn't allow it. I think everyone has to go with silver. Looks wonderful, though! We'll look forward to seeing it this fall.

    1. I am looking for a vintage mobile home park, and they seem very accommodating about me buying a mobile home and going retro. I thought I would change a few exterior things such as paint a little at the time. I just hope it doesn't change when I move in; I actually plan to write up my plans for approval before I make the purchase final. Good luck; it won't hurt to ask unless they are unreasonable.

    2. Keep me posted on what you do. I am very interested.

Five Little Ducks...stories played out!

The children's song about the little ducks leaving the nest to fly away has always been one of my favorites.  Every mother has seen their babies fly away and rejoiced. Life comes full circle. Animals live that same cycle. Babies grow up. Birds leave the nest. Life goes on. So when the three ducks show up every year near my patio I am not surprised. But I am puzzled that it always seems to be the same three. Something just doesn't seem right. It appears the one did not fly away at all. Five little ducks Went out to play Over the hills and far away. The mommy duck went "quack, quack quack," Four little ducks came swimming back... And then Three Two and One. A drake, a female duck (a hen) and a not quite a drake but still not a hen gather here on the 5th green of the golf course. She leads and the other two follow along obediently. They eat, sleep, and guard each other. Each and every day this time of year they come.  I have not named them. Jinxing them would be very pos...

How to be a 12 Month Snow Bird

Vacation Rental in Mexico I live around snowbirds 6 months of the year. I have heard those people say that they all want to live the "snowbird" lifestyle when they go home. But it just is not possible. They are isolated and cold. Social activities with friends and beautiful weather are greatly missed when they return to the realities of their "real" life. One couple I visited with lately returned to Florida this morning where they own a home. The woman is a nurse and works in the summer. They are not going home until May this year. It is too cold in Michigan in the spring so they are hoping to extend their good weather season by simply staying away. Besides that they love their Florida lifestyle a lot. Last week I visited with a woman that lives the snowbird lifestyle year around. No going home to the Midwest in the spring. They essentially vacation 12 month out of the year. And I thought their solution for avoiding unpleasant weather and keeping their lifestyle in...

If You Build It, They Will Come...Maybe!

It all began with a antique window in front of a local shop. It had been painted yellow, the glass was loose and all of the hinges and latches were gone. My old friend Betty would have approved...she would tell me it was just broken enough and damaged enough for me to drag it home. When my dear husband saw it, he wondered what he was meant to do with it. Imagine his surprise when he was presented with the plan to build a small neighborhood library exchange. It wasn't the first time he had heard me ask "How hard could it be?" Now it is six weeks later and we mounted the darling little library exchange on two posts in our front yard. I love it. Now the question is, will they come or has the time passed when people actually read something made of paper? Our association president stopped by and admired the box but left after telling me that he only read books on his Kindle. We will see. Would you bring a book and take a book? b+
