Thankful Thursdays

This little blogging hobby that I started has really evolved into something wonderful.  I started following blogs mostly to get good housekeeping and recipe ideas.  But, boy did I find a whole new world of wonderful people!  Sometimes I feel like I'm the odd person in my world.  I think you could suffice it to say that most of the people I know don't cook from scratch.  They don't make stuff!  I'm sure even my own children think I'm a little bit "out there" for making some of the homemade stuff I make (like homemade sandwich bread, chocolate syrup, chocolate pudding, homemade pancakes, homemade cornbread, and even homemade glass cleaner). Like I say, I like doing things "At Home - My Way!"  But, the best thing about blogging so far has been that I have "met" some wonderful folks.  Folks just like me!  I love that I can read about someone who made a beautiful scratch birthday cake or even made homemade chocolate chips.  I love that stuff!  I was always the little kid trying to make sandals out of a paper bag and some yarn. Ha-ha.  But now, there's Pinterest!  Woah Nellie.  Hold me back LOL!  Apparently there's lots of people just like ME!


One of those wonderful people, Veronica, asked me to write a guest post on her blog, Veronica's Cornucopia.  Its a Thankful Thursday post.  I very much enjoyed writing this post.  My mom doesn't "do" computers.  So, I even printed this one out for her.  Sometimes you write something that really nails the way you feel.  And this one did!


Veronica's blog is wonderful.  The girl can flat out bake some serious cakes!  Plus she has all kinds of other recipes and they all look really, really yummy!  Her pictures are beautiful and I love to read everything she writes.  She's funny, warm, and speaks from the heart.


Join me on Veronica's Cornucopia here!  I know you will be as happy as I was to discover and explore her delightful blog.

  2. Hey Veronica!

    I will watch for you on Pinterest. I love that site, but I can't seem to get an invite in order to get an account. I don't know if the email is coming to my spam or what. Did it take you a long time to get the invite? Love the ideas over there though!
