Old Fashioned Picnic

Image
 So hubby and I were talking how long has it been since we went on an old fashioned picnic.  Just the two of us and no camper, no restaurants, just a packed picnic lunch.  We have a very small BBQ so hubby said he would get it ready and we can cook our brats on it.  I will take all the fixings in small containers.  We love deviled eggs and what a great way to take them on a pic nic.  Going to make small no bake cheesecake for our desserts.  Putting them into these small jars is such a great idea.  Making these personal salads except we will be adding the forks at the lake. Doesn't this sound so good watermelon lemonade.  Never tried it but can't wait.  All this pictures are on pinterest with there recipes.  Check them out and show the original posters some love by liking their pages.  I am making all of these so getting a shopping list ready.  We will be going to picnic at one of the lakes in our area. So grab your family, make a list and go on an old fashion

Vintage Transistor radios....work great

Image
 Two of our transistor radios that we have had for lots of years.  I remember as a young girl we could buy these for $3 each.  They were so fun and we thought we were so cool.  We could only get about 2 stations but we didn't care.  The one I remember the most is this red one with the cover on it.  I always loved the smell of the cover when it was new.  When I dug these out the other day they brought back a lot of memories. We are selling these now in our ETSY shop as we are clearing out boxes, cupboards and shelves as we are retired now and some things just need to go

Hand Quilted Baby Blankets/Throws

We take baby panels and put fiber fill and backing on.  The measure 38" x 45" and are machine washable and dryable. We then hand quilt around each item and make them so pretty. After quilting them we then hand tie each of the 3 layers together. You can find these on sell in our ETSY shop. Some have already sold and we are adding new ones monthly. They work for either boy or girl. This one I loved but is more for adults.
