Log Cabin Thanksgiving Pictures of family in 2009

Great Pictures of the fun day we had at the Log Cabin at Russ and Kelly's.  The food was so good and cooked or reheated on the old Wood Stove.  Russ made homemade Ice Cream and we all were Thankful for the best year. 
When we were kids our folks always made my Dad's mother Suet Pudding from 1930.
2 Cups of chopped suet
2 Cups of bread crumbs
1 Cup of Raisins
Salt and seasoning  (nutmeg Cinn)
4 or 5 Eggs well beaten
3tpspoon melted butter mixed with eggs and 2 1/2 cups of milk and 3 Teaspoon Baking Powder.
Cooked that in a steamer for hours then Mom made a sauce of
4 Cups boiling water
1 Cup Sugar
3 teaspoon flour
Large Lump of Butter
Vanilla Flavoring.
Maybe next year we will make this....
Only mistake I made was I didn't take more left overs home.  Don ate everything for lunch today, guess I'll have to beg for more cause it was so good. Thanks Keri, Kayla, Russ & Kelly for all your hard work. 
Wish you could have all joined us!

You could feel the Love in the room when these pictures were taken.

I stole this picture off Keri's blog. Thanks Keri.

Merry Christmas to All

Kelly made Luke's Hat and whiskers.  It is going to be so fun to have a baby around at Christmas again.
Hope you all have a very Merry Christmas
Love
Don & Maureen

Stop smoking

After 50 years I'm trying to stop smoking again. I quit for 2 months back in 2001.   Got one of those electric cigarettes and down to about 3 cigarettes a day.  It is hell.  I think about cigarettes now  24 hours a day whereas before only when I wanted one.   The electric cigarettes aren't that bad, if I can only keep Holly from stealing it now, she likes to clean off the little stand by my chair like my cell phone, glasses, ink pens etc.  Wish me luck.
