    July 4th Plans and Recipes

    ByMary Crozier June 28, 2022June 29, 2022

    For several years now, we spend July 4th at our cabin in the mountains. There is a sweet, homespun, Americana parade that goes by our driveway. Since the parade is heavily attended, getting a good viewing spot makes our driveway a very popular place. What started as a small parade-viewing get together, has grown into…

    Saturday Meanderings

    ByMary Crozier June 24, 2022June 30, 2022

    Happy Saturday and as I write this, it’s hard to believe nearly half of 2022 is over. Since I started grand jury duty, my schedule is non-existent and I can’t really recall what happened to the last 3 weeks in June. I always look forward to writing this post so let’s get started and chat…

    Saturday Meanderings

    ByMary Crozier May 27, 2022May 28, 2022

    The Perfect Birthday Treat at an English Tea Room

    ByMary Crozier April 26, 2022April 26, 2022

    My life has been so hectic lately and I have had little to no time to do something civilized, and just for me. My sweet friend, Christine made reservations at the English Rose Tea Room in Carefree, Arizona for my birthday celebration. I cannot believe I did not know about this establishment and it is…
