Charcuterie boards


Obe of my charcuterie boards


Cheese n crackers tray


My other charcuterie


As guests waited for mom to be they were treated to charcuterie boards and either mimosas, bloody marys or a variety of sparkling non alcoholic drinks

Then we had a full blown brunch with eggs, sausage,bacon,home fries,coffee,tea,lemonade,cranberry juice,home made breads with flavored butters
And a yogurt bar

I made the homemade pumpkin,banana,cranberry, and lemon blueberry breads
With honey butter and a honey orange butter

Sooooo good
Guests were amazed at the spread and were raving about it

Of course there were games too so full bellies and fun were on the days plans

All had a great time

My poor niece who put it on for her sister had to.put down her dog that morning
I dont know how she kept it together

I gave her many hugs and kisses

Life always keeps us on our 
toes doesnt it

Oh baby



This is first attempt at a pepperoni rose for my charcuterie board

I think it came out pretty good
We spent all day decorating the sportsman club

9 to 3 and i was exhausted


Hunter is due in early May
We had it at the sportsman club
And of course a woodland theme

Bears of washcloths favors


Smores favors


Welcome entrance


Setting up tables


Lots of help
Lots to do


Charger plates at each chair


Table centerpieces
My brother cut all the wood
Even made votive holders




A tent near the gift table 


Woodland napkins


More animals

Even some stuffed on the wall ha ha

Gonna heat my ham there, set up 2 charcuterie boards and slice breads

Made banana, lemon b lueberry, cranberry and pumpkin

Hoping to post more regularly

Been taking care of me physically and mentally

Hoping to come out better as a person

Slash and stitch



Here is my creative start

I am slashing and inserting to make it a more interesting larger back

I kinda like the squares added in

A fun little diversion for the eyes


My machine froze up so now have to fix that before i can move on

But none the less i have moved it a little forward

Maybe tonight i switch out machines
And try again
