Corn plant blooms

COLD !!!!!!!

It was so cold last night. we had to cover ALL plants or bring them in. Down to 31 for 2 hours and that is colder then it has been in a long time here. Any way life goes on. better here then most places. Kylie came and stayed the night with us while her mom and dad went to see Luke Bryan. We had a blast but sure wish it would be warm some time when she is here. We made a mosaic starfish and it turned out great !!!

The Hawk made a fly by LOL

And have you ever heard of a Corn plant blooming ???? well they do and they smell like lilac

Still no winner on the lucky Moose Deanna :(   this is the newest pice of art :)

Glad we are in Florida this week LOL

From all the post on Facebook it is a mess all over the country.. I go my back sun burned yesterday while I was working on my turtle on the front porch.  I put one more coat of varnish on the signs today and Sam laid 2 more pavers. :) he fished for a while and then went and got his hair cut. I worked on more wind chimes.

Still milting glass and making more wind chimes. 

 I got Sam to help varnish the signs for me today

 DONT THEY LOOK GOOD !!!!!!

 Sam even laid 6 pavers for the bar area :) 

This is my newest project  to mess with when I am not doing my wind chimes :) I was working on it today in the sun and go sun burnt on my back.

Nutella Fudge –

Ingredients
½ cup salted butter (you can use unsalted, but the salt brings out the sweetness)
½ cup whole milk or half and half
1½ cups light brown sugar
1½ teaspoons vanilla
1 cup Nutella
2½ cups – 3 cups confectioner’s sugar
Instructions
Grease an 8×8 pan. Place the confectioner’s sugar in a mixing bowl and set aside.
Melt butter over medium low heat. Add the milk and light brown sugar. Bring to a hard, rolling boil over medium heat and then boil for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove the pan from the heat and quickly add the vanilla and Nutella. Stir until the Nutella is melted.
Carefully pour the hot Nutella mixture over the confectioner’s sugar and mix quickly until completely combined. Once everything comes together, it will set pretty fast. If your fudge is liquid-y, add more powdered sugar. Pour/scoop the fudge into your greased 8×8 pan. Press the fudge into the pan, if needed. Chill for 2 hours.

More work on the patio

We got 2 loads of sand put in the back for the patio and are about ready to start putting the blocks down.

 had a hawk come right up to me today while I was out there too.... 

We went to the Moose for tacos and Buzz, Cindy, George, his son Dennis and a friend of theirs went also. 
 

Superbowl at the Moose

Mom,Dad.Sam and I went to the Moose for the party and we bib not win any thing but had a great time. at about 1/2 time Debbie and Frank showed up too. We got home in time to watch the end :( I wish Seattle would have ran the play and won but o well !!

 I hope to see some bricks laid today in the back but we will see. Dennis, George's son is going to help. they have it already formed up  and going to get the sand this morning.

I have been working on more wind chimes and sun catchers too

Today Mom and I are going to Linda's next door and making a Mosaic starfish or some thing. Then I have a turtle and mom is doing a butterfly.
