Tuesday Tidbits #258 Big Changes

Hello Friends!

I’m sitting on the couch, warm and cozy, before the fire that Sweet Man started. We are still here in Pennsylvania. Even though it’s dark and dreary outside, I feel the warmth of the fire and the repaired furnace! Yes, the furnace man came and fixed ours. Hallelujah! We are happy to have that all behind us now.

Sweet Man’s Fire!

Where’s the Snow?

The winter snow is gone. We had about 14 inches of the cold powder, but then the rain came with warmer weather, and poof… it disappeared.

I shared this exact spot last week all covered in snow and a frozen lake.
It’s still cold.

Beef Barley Soup

I made wonderful Beef Barley soup on a cold rainy day. It was simply dreadful out, but it was a delight to take the pot of soup to our friend’s house, where we all sat around their bar and enjoyed every sip together. Nothing is better than having lovely fellowship over a bowl of warm soup. Better yet it’s wonderful having such great friends to laugh and chat with!

Snow Fog

We all talked about the last several days of dense fog we have had here in the Tri-State area. (New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio.) Many called it Snow Fog because of the cold ground and warm air. It did not let up for days, and in many places, the visibility was slim to none!

We spent a day of antiquing at Findley Lake, New York. The fog on the lake was breathtaking.
We were glad to get home after driving through such dense fog!

New Tea Set

I love the Cottageware Tea Set and Butter Dish.

I have to share my fantastic find! We went antiquing and thrifting, and I found the above Cottageware Tea Set along with the Butter Dish. I got it all for $25! Mine is Keele St. Pottery Co. Ltd.

It was manufactured in Staffordshire, England from 1920-1960. I believe the butter dish has been seen in a kitchen on a British series from a streaming network. I’m not sure which show, but I have wanted to have this set for a while. I knew it would look beautiful in our cottage kitchen here in Pennsylvania, and it does! It brightens up the kitchen on these dark winter days.

Big Changes

As you can see we had weather changes, kitchen changes and furnace repair changes. My son also had an age change! We had a wonderful time celebrating his birthday with friends and family! Are you experiencing any changes in your neck of the woods?

Thank You

As I always try to convey… we certainly appreciate all of you. Thanks for joining us for another Tuesday Tidbits.

We wish all of you a wonderful week ahead. Whatever you have planned… make every day count and be thankful for your Blessings! Stay cozy friends!
