Comfy and Scary

-
I have so much to tell you about and I don't know where to start. If you were here with me, I would be talking really fast and excited and swinging my arms like I always do. But since you aren't here with me, and I still feel all wordy, (surprise, surprise,) I have to blog with you, and since I can't type fast  my brain and fingers get worn out before I can type all I want to say.  So, my post will probably be short, often and off the wall this week. In other words, same old, same old.. lol

We closed on the other farm this week too, so I have lots to share on that!

Right now I'm sitting in the living room listening to the ocean and having my coffee.

 Oh, yeah, I wanted to tell you, I had to sleep on the couch last night.

 No kidding.

  We don't have a TV in our bedroom at home, but of course here there is one.  We don't have satellite at home either, but of course here they do.

  Mark found some sort of creepy, scary story about creepy, scary things that live in the water.  It was creepy and scary so I left.

  After I left, I got mad.  I thought to myself,   " I can say what we're going to watch, after all when I went in there he was half asleep."  So I went back in there and told him what I thought.

 I thought wrong......  he had the remote..... you ever try to argue with a man who has the remote in his hand?....

He looked at me and I came back in the living room, and watched, "I Love Lucy." 

 But it's all okay, I like him again today so I can't wait for him and everyone else to get up so we can get this vacation started!!

p.s.  Tonight I get to watch one of those home shows. Mark's gonna think its creepy and scary. But hey, that's okay, because the couch sleeps real comfy.  I know he'll be fine.

Raisin Pie....AN OLD FASHIONED FAVORITE

-

Some of you requested the Raisin Pie recipe so here it is. I had never had a raisin pie until I married into the Gray family. Mark loved them and when I was given a bridal shower before we married, everyone was asked to bring a recipe. Marilyn Losson brought this one. I have to admit as a young wife I let it sit in the recipe box for a little while but once I took it out, it just kept coming back out. Mark's grandpa Gray loved a raisin pie and so we took this over to his house often and of course we took a half gallon vanilla ice cream along with us. When Lucas came in the other day and saw this on the counter he said the first thing he thought of was Grandpa Herman. The girls aren't crazy about this pie but Lucas likes it and he likes it with ice cream too, so I'm thinking it's a Gray man thing. Okay, so here we go, the recipe is..... 2 cups seedless raisins 2 cups water 1/2 cup brown sugar 2 Tbsp cornstarch 1 tsp. cinnamon 1/8 tsp. salt 1 Tbs
