What's In My Kitchen Today

Hey Teddy..are you asleep on the job today in mama's kitchen?

My first mum of the season getting it's drink in my farm sink
Every time I buy cherries i think to myself..is this the last bag..but we just keep on going..that darling little plate is from my dear friend, julie whitmore of julie whitmore pottery







Went to our local organic grocery store yesterday and got this beautiful bottle of california olive oil. and a bottle of pinot noir





We are bbqing again tonight..one is for teddy



How could i pass this up?








my sweet little dande girl...see all of teddy's chewies?






There he is..see that tail? always straight up







I just can't take my eyes off of him...look at that sweet face...











Scored this at Michaels yesterday for a dollar on the grab rack table..cute, huh? you can never have too many recipe boxes, can you? they have Fall in there too. you know i got some candles and Fall leaf window clingers. i have a thing for window clingers...probably cause i wanted them so bad as a child and there was no way mom was buying window clingers. i am making up for lost time...big time










Needless to say...i LOVE LOVE LOVE this plate. somebody else must have too. it has a repair at the top. i have it hanging on my wall in the kitchen. it makes me HAPPY










I collect any plates i can find that have turkeys on them. that Fall thing and all.

  3. i LOVE that plate! teddy has the cutest face and a really BIG steak waiting for that little guy! our teddy's are lucky puppies! my teddy just ate a frosty paw. she gets one every evening. have you given those to teddy yet? they are in the freezer section of the grocery store. we are back up to the high 90's with horrible humidity. i am almost living in my pool now. it makes a big difference. as of today we are 100 days away from halloween!

  6. Kari, sweetie, it's been so long since I stopped by the farm for a visit. So, wonderful to see you are back in the swing of things again.

    I was thinking the same thing about the cherries at the market this morning.... One of our favs.

    Toodles,
    Kate

  8. Marley is a Tzu poo. She's black and white. Her cousin is an older version of Teddy, but not as beautiful. I wouldn't dare tell my sister-in-law that!

    I saw your toes peeking of that photo!

    I'm in love with these tiny dogs... Marley is a.... thunderball. She belongs to my daughter, but she is with me all of the time. She sleeps with me and dances with me too.

    I collect Roosters and Chickens. I couldn't stand having to get the eggs on farm because I was afraid to get pecked, but now... I adore them. Not enough to have REAL ones. That is for sure.

    I love your plates, and the fact that you will give Teddy something special to eat.

    You're my kind of friend.

  16. Teddy's adorable...that sweet little face! It's so hot here that your post with the mention of fall was totally refreshing....and I'm definitely going to have to check out my local Starbucks to see if they have this coffee here yet. Somehow the lucky west coasters get the goods sooner than us. Enjoyed your photos. Have a great weekend!

    And I absolutely love the yellow chair!

  22. I've seen Starbucks coffee in our grocery store and purchase it once in a while. Have not seen that particular packaging though, but then we are rural so it may take time for it to get to our little world.

  30. Hello sweet Kary! Oh my goodness, Teddy has grown SO MUCH and is adorable!! And that turkey plate...SWOON. Love it!

    Boston is the sweetest and we can't wait to bring him home! We only met him once and miss him already, isn't that crazy? I keep hoping I remember how to raise a puppy once he's here. All that peeing, pooping, and playing! :)

    We are hoping Boston will distract us from the fact that we have had no luck with a baby up until now. He will be our little baby for a while. :)

    Glad to hear you are doing so well, and that Teddy has brought so much joy to your lives!

    Thinking of you...

    Dawn

    p.s. great new blog banner! that building is so beautiful!
