Trisha reminded me of this, so I did a search and am sharing it with everyone.

Thanksgiving Wishes

HAPPY THANKSGIVING..........Here is a recipe I received from my sis and wanted to share with you for the holiday.

Ingredients:
1 whole turkey
1 large lemon, cut into halves
salt and pepper to taste
butter or olive oil, whichever you prefer
Heat oven to 350 degrees
Rub butter or oil over the skin of the turkey until it is completely coated.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper and any other seasonings you prefer.
Take a knife and gently separate the skin from the breast meat;
Slide  lemon  halves  under  the  skin  with  the  peel  side  up, one on
each side.  This way the  juice from the lemon will release into the breasts.
Cover and bake for 30-45 minutes.   Remove cover and continue
to roast until juices run clear, basting every 15-20 minutes.
If you've followed these steps correctly, your turkey should
look like the one in the picture.
Bon Appetit!

The greatest contribution you can make to this world is to better yourself. God works directly through you, so his work is an outcome of the person you make yourself out to be. Marianne Williamson talks about dealing with your issues and knowing that you're healing the world.

I receive an email from Marianne Williamson through Oprah. She has such good thoughts for improving your life. I have decided to start posting these to share with all of you.

The Sleeping Lady

The Sleeping Lady

Legend tells us that a millennia ago, the Great Land known as Alaska was inhabited by a race of giants.  Among these people was a beautiful young maiden and a handsome young man whose devotion to each other was admired by all the villagers.  Wedding preparations were underway when word reached the village of a warring tribe approaching from the north. 

After a village council it was decided that the young man would bring gifts to the invaders to show the peaceful and friendly intentions of the villagers.  Keeping herself busy while waiting for the young man's return, the maiden eventually grew tired and laid down to rest.

Soon after, word reached the village that the invaders rejected the offer of peace and a battle ensued in which the young man was killed.  The villagers, gazing at the sleeping maiden, did not have the heart to wake her. 

So there she rests today, still waiting for news of peace and the return of her love . . .

Projects

I look at all of the quilt projects on line. 

And I wonder why I am sitting here…..

Cause I got projects of my own.!!!!!!!!

Weather

I have a widget from weather.com.  It shows the weather in different cities and turns dark at night and daylight during the day.  And I was wondering…..

Why is it light in Boise and dark in Brigham.  they are just not that far apart.

By the way, it is 41 degrees in Boise, 37 degrees in Brigham, and 25 degrees in Anchorage.
