no matter how tall your grandfather was."
- Abraham Lincoln
In honor of this day, I am having a mini-book review.
I know I gave promise of a recipe today. I am making these preparations, however.

It seems that the weather continues to give us plenty of things to say this winter. We are awaiting the arrival of another snowfall here, and it would appear that the preparations Atlanta made for this recent storm were definitely in order. I hope everyone will come through the icing and power outages without too much damage.
Thank you for reading. I really appreciate your comments.
Yes, I suppose pretzel logs would be more healthful, but they don't taste nearly as good as those Little Debbie snacks!! :-) I love your strawberry canisters, and look forward to that recipe whenever it is ready for us. Stay safe out there!
ReplyDeletestay safe...this is such an awful storm!
ReplyDeleteI sure hope that you will all be OK and that the storm won't cause too much disturbance.
ReplyDeleteStay safe and warm.
Are you making pretzels. That sounds yummy.
Hugs,

Hi Nellie , I do so agree with Abe Lincoln , you have to stand tall in your own shoes , whether you are 5' or 7' tall .Snacks was once healthy until they started putting all those addictive in them to help preserve the shelf life .love your strawberry glass jars . Stay safe and warm and thanks for sharing .
ReplyDeletePS: We are getting snow this time around . ;-D
Stay safe and warm Nellie!
ReplyDeleteYou keep safe too! I'm looking forward to seeing what you bake.
ReplyDeleteNope, can't bring in homemade goodies to the students . . . Gave to have store ingredient labels! How ridiculous is that - you, just give 'em preservatives!
You must have been such a fun teacher! Love the Little Debbie cake idea:)
ReplyDeleteI'm making something sweet right now with butter on the counter for oatmeal raisin cookies later.
Stay warm and safe my friend!

So glad you brought attention to Mr. Lincolns birthday. It bugs me that we don't celebrate birthdays like his and Mr. Washington's on their birthdays.
ReplyDeleteI love that you remember things the way I do too.
Nice to meet you! Hope you are staying safe and warm.
ReplyDeleteMy little nephew loved the little Debbie swiss cakes but would cry if the icing stuck to the cardboard packaging!!!
First time visitor to your blog. I shall look back at prior posts.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of pretzel rods, perfect for a log cabin theme.
Stay out of the storm and enjoy another cup of tea. It is nice to meet you.
That was a great idea about those Little Debbie rolls, Nellie...and pretzel sticks would work great, too.
ReplyDeleteYou would be so proud of our SweetCheeks. She knows ALL about Abraham Lincoln. She got up in front of class and told them all the facts about him. Birth date-death date- etc. She knew things even her teacher didn't-like the names of his two vice-presidents. She is like a sponge for learning. Her teacher gave her an S+ for her grade in Social Studies (1st grade). xo Diana
I love all your recommendations for these fabulous books! Are you SURE you don't want to go back and try your hand at being a librarian?
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the snow!
Love,
Suzanne
