Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

Muffins and Doily

 It was such a nice morning for taking a walk.
The temperature was 58 degrees, sunny and no wind.
A little fog around at first but it was quickly gone.


Walked around each cemetery once.
Picked up a couple books out of the Jeep and dropped
them off at the library.

Then up and down a few side streets and over to the industrial park
and walked around in there.

David has applied for a job at Garrett Container Systems
here in the industrial park.
Would be most thankful if you would say a prayer 
that all goes well and he gets the job.
It has great hours, good pay and benefits, and is so close.


Walked back through town and to the pond.

Nice old tractor


As I was walking in town a man stopped in a pickup truck
and asked if I had seen a German Shepherd puppy 
with a cone around it's neck.
Sorry I had to tell him no.
Took his number and looked during the rest of my walk but
never did see the dog.

😊    🥾    🐕    ☀️

Didn't go to the library for stitching this morning.
Everyone had other things to do today.

I stayed home and baked blueberry muffins.
I added more blueberries than the recipe called for.
Our Pastor loves anything with blueberries in it so 
I thought I'd take him a couple tomorrow.


I finished knitting that doily I started yesterday.
I'm going to make one more.





Hope you all had a wonderful Saturday.
Thanks for coming by.

NanaDiana - Yes, they do the duck Jeep thing around here as well.  I have one duck that was put on my door.  I keep it here in the Jeep.

The cemetery shot is gorgeous, with the low-lying fog way in the background. My mom made doilies from this pattern, I still have some!

The doily turned out so pretty! The cemetery shot is gorgeous with the fog.
The tractor brought back memories. My Dad was a farmer and always used Farmall tractors.
Praying for David and the job!

Sure hope they found their pup. Your doily looks wonderful. I love blueberries. Am making a salmon salad tonight for dinner with fresh blueberries and making my own blueberry vinaigrette dressing to go with. Janice

Oh, please send a few blueberry muffins to Greece they look absolutely delicious! 😊 Our prayers will be with you, and whatever happens, I am sure that God always has the path we need, even when we cannot see it at first. Your place sounds so welcoming, as though it has stepped straight out of a novel. Sending our greetings and best wishes to your entire family.
