Hey there everyone! I miss you guys! I really do lately. I feel like a part of me has been left behind here. Although, I am not gone, and still very much present. I am just presently over at Home pressure cooking more often.
I have a whole new line of goods coming very soon for the Pressure cooker. That has been an exciting new journey for me.
I just wanted you all to know, I truly do miss being here more often. When I do have some things to share I will always come over here and share them with you when something new arises. This blog here will always be my baby!
How about a little stroll outdoors for now?
Everything is starting to bloom and green up nicely here in the Carolina’s. My allergies are really acting up though.
A few years ago I shared a post our low maintenance gardens. You can read all about that. Nothing has changed and year after year the same things bloom, and grow even more. The only addition I typically do is some container gardening and I tend to stick with petunias. I did buy something new this year for our window boxes that said full sun only. We shall see how long those last.
This here rooster, whom I named Mr. Doo-right was a recent birthday present. What a special surprise that was from my friend Natalie.
He looks right at home.
If you happened to miss our colorful porch decor you can check that out while you are here.
Last year we had to remove some dead pine trees that were over here. It sure looks bare, but we had no choice. They would have eventually fallenl on our house.
Now my husband is struggling to keep the grass alive on this side. We planted Zoysia around 9 years ago and it is fully grown in. My husband is lawn obsessed HA!
The outdoor fireplace is a new addition. The other one we had out there for 10 years finally started going. The faux bricks were falling off and beyond repair. We did give it away though to a family who very much appreciated it. The fellow said he would repair it himself. So I am happy about that.
We had our first fire this past Friday evening. It was lovely.
Here is the link for this fireplace just in case you want to inquire.
Thanks for stopping over today.
We started on our kitchen mini makeover and it is coming along nicely.
I can’t wait until it is all finished.
If you are new here, welcome! I am also very excited to share farmhouse stencils with you.

The outside of your home and landscaping is so pretty. Thank you for sharing.
So good to hear from you! Your yard is beautiful. And
I love the roaster. Happy Spring!
Everything looks so beautiful Debbie. Love the new outdoor fireplace too. Hope your allergies get better. Mine seem to be year round now. Hope your son is ok too.
Your front porch looks so nice – I like it!
Love your new fireplace and I am sure you will get a lot of use out of it. I have one also, but I never seem to use it – it’s just me.
Have a great week.
Hugs,
Mary
Debbie, this is the first time I have seen the front of your home and it is lovely! I have asked you this before…please tell me where the black urns came from . I know you said they were given to you from a decorating company?
Thank – you
Balsam Hill:) Thanks Denise.
…and you have been missed! Your home and grounds are beautiful. Happy Spring!
Beautiful garden Debbie love the fireplace area.
I love the back yard and the front.Everything is so tidy and beautiful.
Debbie beautiful home , garden, and outdoor fireplace. Thank you for the mini tour. We live in the Pacific NW. We have been in our rambler 34 yrs. Behind our backyard was a serene pasture. The family sold the property after their Mom went to Heaven. So we will have homes (12) in their backyard. We have a fenced yard and we thought that was the property line. But we have 12 inches going South that is ours. Our backyard is fully landscaped. So we are waiting and hoping the Contractors will put a fence up on the property line so the homes have a fenced back yard. The homes will be 30 ft. tall. So we might have a narrow alley that will be part of our property between the new homes backyard fence and our property. So we are drawing out different ideas if we need to dress up that vacant space ; yet low maintenance without any plants. Thanks again for the tour.
Hi, Debbie. Nice to hear from you again. I miss your posts here, too. I don’t really visit your other blog as I’m not very interested in cooking!
I liked seeing your beautiful, nicely landscaped home. Actually, I liked the rustic-looking shutters on your windows. I’ve been considering shutters for my bland little ranch and yours really appeal to me.
Hope to hear from you again soon!
Your home is beautiful on the inside and outside; nice landscaping and your splash of color with the petunias is ‘just right’. Hope your new ones are keepers for your future windowboxes too. I’m anxious to see what’s going above your stove (I think I’m going to be jealous). Thank you for the opportunity to win the ‘super pot’; I would be so very appreciative if I were to win.
Enjoy your beautiful weather; getting nice here in northern Ill.; love getting out in the sunshine and fresh air.
Hello Debbie, I see almost all of your posts…..Enjoy all of them, especially the cooking with Mike. You have a very manicured lawn and flower beds……If I miss something I check your Timeline, since I don’t go on everyday as my husband had open heart surgery last month. He had an LVAD implant and I feel like a nurse now…..lol. I will always look for your posts…..
I appreciate you so much Judy. I am so sorry to hear about your husband. I hope he is on the mend very soon.
Debbie…your home is so beautiful!! thanks for all your posts!!
Looking lovely!
Hi Debbie, the ponderosa looks fabulous. Joe is a lawn guy as well. Your landscape and fire pit area is simply beautiful. I can’t wait to plant my annuals next month. Michigan weather unpredictable. Miss all your posts, I’m still a fan!
I miss you Debbie. I understand though, if the pressure cooking is successful. You do what you have to do and prioritize.
Here’s to hoping it is Linda. It is a chance I am taking:)
I purchased the linen pillow cover. How will I receive the Mason Jars printable?
Love your site!
It will come in my first email to you Wanda:) Thanks so much.
WOW !!
Your home and grounds are beautiful. The new outdoor Fire place is very nice !!
We are starting to have ‘some’ sunny days and cool nights… luv the cool nights !!
take care… Linda of No.Cal.
Beautiful! Love that green lawn too.
Hi Debbie, your home is beautiful, love everything. I live in the foot of the mountain in North Carolina, I always wanted to put green plants near my front door but I am scared snakes will nest there. What do you think? Also my grandchildren never pay attention to anything so that’s where my problem comes in. Debbie you have a God Given Talent, just love everything. Have a great Day and Thanks.
Paula, that is so kind of you. I really do not have a talent at all when it comes to gardening. I have not had any snake issues here. But I can’t speak of your neck of the woods.
