80 Dinner Rolls! My Santa Cards and Canvasses Arrived!

It's Thanksgiving Eve as I write my journal entry and we just got Tabitha back in the house!
She slipped out as I was taking Fall out the French doors in the sewing room this afternoon and enjoyed several hours of freedom.

Yesterday was Baking Day for Louis Dean!


He had full charge of the kitchen for the entire afternoon!


This man loves to bake and he had a really good time.


He made TWO double batches of dinner rolls.


It's a messy business making bread!


But it sure does smell good!


I'm glad he enjoys making bread as much as he does.


80 rolls!


He proofed two pans and baked them while proofing the other two.


Delicious!!

While he was working in the kitchen, I was watching for a delivery!


My canvasses and Christmas card ordered arrived!


I wanted to have these on hand for the giveaways and gifts.


Starting tomorrow I will be addressing cards every night beginning in alphabetical order.
Every other year I start with the ABC.... and then reverse the order the next year.


I close tonight with this card from my friend, Rhonda......

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

  11. Oh Louis Dean, I can smell those rolls all the way to California. Scottie, beam me over to Texas!!!

    I am excited that I have my Christmas decorations up and just can't decide yet where I will hang my precious Santa painting you gifted me last year.

    Have a wonderful Thanksgiving. We were meditating this morning on the 10 lepers Jesus healed, and only ONE came back to thank Him. I want to be that leper!! Thanks be to God for his loving kindness and goodness to us every day!! Have a Blessed Thanksgiving!

    Love and Hugs

  20. So fun to watch Louis Dean deep in the throes of baking. It’s great that he can pursue his passions. Those rolls look amazing….almost as good as his cinnamon rolls! It is so generous of you to create and send all those Christmas cards. Trust me they are treasured by all those who receive them.
