I hope that everyone's Christmas was good, and the one here was fantastic! Me and brother Greg cooked enough food to feed an army - and of course everything was prepared outdoors. Although it was certainly a long day of cooking, we had a good time doing it for the family. There was brisket, turkey, chicken, homemade scalloped potatoes, homemade baked beans, homemade apple pie, butternut squash, sweet potatoes, and dutch oven cobbler....Oh, it was good stuff! The only problem was - there was way too much food for us to eat.
Anyway, I want you to see the brisket and scalloped potatoes that Greg made......
In other news, I constructed a couple of new planters on the property that are on posts, and the hope is to have some type of vining plants in them next spring to flow over the side and hang down. That's the idea, at least...Daddy told me that we had enough planters on the property now, so I guess my building is finished. Lol. Anyway, here's one by the road....
Also, the compost bins are pretty full now, but there's still room for quite a bit more in one of the 6 bins. I'll be on the lookout for more bagged leaves after this weekend, and hope to locate a few. Speaking of the compost - here's Jude "helping" me empty the bags into the bins today. :)
I sure do love that dog.......

It looks delicious. Did Jude get any?
Oh yes, Jude almost made herself sick from eating afterwards...
Aww, she looks so cute! You and Jude are a match made in Heaven. I'm glad you and Greg had such a nice Christmas....hey, you can always come out west and cook for me, LOL!
So glad you had such a nice Christmas. The food looks wonderful. Love the photo of Jude too!
Granny, me and Jude certainly were, and I'd be lost without my buddy. I'd love to cook for you, but in my own backyard.
Rachel - I just had to take Jude's photo with all the grass clippings on her face. It was cute....
That planter is cool looking, and you are good building geometric beds. I am glad you had a good Christmas.
Jeff,
You are sounding great! Glad you had a nice Christmas! I'll bet those new planters are going to be lovely filled with those trailing plants and flowers! And that photo of Jude is simply precious! What a sweetie!
Here's to hoping the New Year brings even more peace and happiness! :) Cheers! *insert pic of wine glass here!* :)
Kris - thanks...
Willow's quiet corner - Yes, things are going great around here, and the future looks even better. :)
