Treasures, Treasures and More Treasures

I am so excited with the treasures I found in Grammy's old recipe box.  Between the broken rubber bands, and the lid that won't go on because there are so many recipes, I found some real gems.  Dandelion Wine, Carmel Dumplings, Fog, report cards and even a diet plan from the 1950's. I can't wait to make some of the recipes and think that I will give the Carmel dumplings a trial run today.  My family said that they can't imagine they would be good, so if you are up for a taste test, let me know. I will be glad to have you be my Guinea pig...

Inside the canvas bound cookbook, I found more treasures...Here are a few that I took a picture of.  Who knew that a Crock Pot was first marketed as a Bean Pot.  Amazing how far things have come.



Anyway, yesterday I experience a  first. I sewed some sponsor patches on a NASCAR fire suit. I am excited to say our friend's son is racing in the ARCA race at Daytona.  Please watch, even if you are not a racing fan, and cheer on Tommy Joe Martins.  Not sure what is number is, but the Binford house will be cheering and rooting him on! Hopefully my sewing skills will give him good luck!

Until next time, keep adventuring and looking for the joy in the little details of life!
