What's for supper?

Have you ever wondered what a typical dinner would be for us Southerners? Well....tonight we had homemade biscuits, macaroni & cheese, turnips, mashed sweet potatoes and a peach cobbler! Of course, sweet tea for my husband to drink, coke for me. (And coke isn't necessarily coca-cola....its any kind of soft drink!) We don't eat like this every night, but my husband loves it when we do!

I'm almost ready to start painting some rooms at my studio!! Here are the colors I chose...if I don't change my mind again! I have already bought the Robin's Egg Blue and the Pink for the bathroom, so I can't change those now! So I am going with Robin's Egg Blue in my office, studio and classroom. The lighter cream color is for the trim, doors and kitchen cabinets. The mustard-y color is for the laudry, where (hopefully) all my fabric will go. The dark red (called Roasted tomato!) is for the music room. We have new floors in the bathroom and beadboard on the wall. If my husband is off, we'll go tomorrow to get more supplies and maybe I can start painting this weekend! Its hard to believe things are moving along so quickly now! I'm sure there will be some bumps in the road along the way, but so far, so good!! I cleaned out the fireplace the other night. I got 3 wal-mart bags full of dirt out of it! It had been closed up for no telling how long.....but with that cleaned up, it looks so much better. I'm trying to go over there and do something every evening. Today I finished patching up most of the nail holes in the office.

 

I wanted to share some photos of my Christmas photos....and my kitties! Pumpkin is amazed by the tree and the mantel decorations. The only way to get his attention away from them is the laser pointer, so I keep it by my side all the time. The tree that Sweet Pea is in front of had to be taken down (last picture). They just couldn't leave that one alone!
