Valentine’s Day Conversation Heart Sugar Cookies

02/15/2021 By: Kelliecomment

I discovered a fabulous sugar cookie recipe while one-line shopping for wafer paper. My family can’t stop grabbing one every time they stroll thru the kitchen. It’s Valentine’s Day so it’s permissible, I suppose. Wafer paper is so pleasing and without a doubt adds a- little pizazz to your cookies. Conversation Hearts are one of […]

Southern Sweet Tea Chicken

Are you ready for the dog days of summer? Temperatures are rising and those bugs are biting. Picnics, stargazing, fireworks, bar-b-q’s are favorites as the days heat up. For that matter, the nights too.  Lord, it gets hot in the South! They don’t call this Hotlanta for nothing. Us Georgians are no strangers to heat […]

Mexican Tuna Salad

I have to admit I wasn’t always a big tuna fish fan, but prepared as below, it has become a favorite. This recipe is great-tasting and easy to prepare. It all goes back to my childhood as a student in 5th grade. This time in my life was truly a treat because my family was stationed in the magnificent city of Anchorage, […]

Crispy Chicken Bake and $100.00 Visa Card Give-A-Way

07/20/2014 By: Kellie2 Comments

When it comes to chicken in the South, we know dipped, battered and fried gets all the attention. But here’s an attention getter on it’s own. Lighter than being fried, this chicken chirps with flavor and zest, and will be a feather in any chef’s hat. Pair with a good ole’ fashioned cornbread recipe and […]

Is this you?  Have super picky  kids when it comes to what is put on the table at meal time?  Well it’s me!!  It can be exhausting looking for a recipe which they find acceptable enough to put in their mouths.  While sitting in car-line at school and thumbing through the new “Cooking with Paul […]

Ain’t life stressful?!  Today was for us.  If it was for you, follow our lead.   Cook and eat! I’m sharing a recipe with you today my family truly loved.   It’s not your typical collard greens.  A recipe with heavy cream is usually a hit around here, so even my Yankee husband had more […]

I have a thing for pine cones. I should as I am ga I have a thing for pine cones. I should as I am gathering them up every few days from my lawn. Amazing to know, they close their scales tightly to protect their seeds when it's chilly outside. I believe the large is a long leaf pine cone. Surprisingly, they are hard to burn. The more you know! 🤣 #pine #pinecone #pinecones #longleafpine #nature #naturephotography #naturelover #naturelovers #thegreatoutdoors #beauty #smile #gooutside #pickupapinecone #naturesbeauty #atl #fayettecounty #georgia #canonphotography #canon #canonusa #instagram #photography #instagood #southernliving #southern #southernnature
Walking the grounds of the Central State Hospital, Walking the grounds of the Central State Hospital, once the largest mental institution, was to put it mildly, "Creepy." My family gave me a stern look and my daughter said, "Mother it's time." 🤣 I believe there are tours in the main building but due to covid, they are canceled at this time . Swipe for more photos. A small area where many of the dead are buried and lastly, a bronze angel serves as perpetual guardian of the dead. My next post reveals a tremendously haunting, decrepit building which is connected to the main asylum. If that's not enough, right down the street is an abandoned haunted prison built in the 50's. 😳😳 #millidgeville #millidgevilleasylum #asylum ##centralstatehospital #haunted #haunting #hauntedasylum #hauntedhospital #travel #traveling #ghosthunting #georgia #spooky #creepy #abandonedplaces #abandoned #abandonedphotography #hauntings #georgiahauntings #abandonedprison #hauntedprison
Do you visit haunted places? 👻 The Central Stat Do you visit haunted places? 👻 The Central State Hospital in Millidgeville, Georgia should be on your bucket list. Many sites have given me the creeps but nothing compares to this abandoned asylum. The sign read there are snakes 🐍 and other creepy things inside. No Thanks! The third floor has caved. Vast amount of grounds to walk with neighboring buildings surrounding the asylum. Several reports of voices, strange sightings and occurrences revolve around the spooky ground – especially the empty grounds where the deceased patients lie. Some claims come from golfers adjacent to the property constantly hearing screams coming from certain abandoned buildings. These claims can range from a simple visual anomaly from a bystander to eerie feelings and sounds. 
More than a haunting feeling, I left with extreme sadness. Read the tragic story and you will understand the depth of the horrific abuse and atrocities which took place here. People brought their loved ones, unruly teens to this hell with the pretense of mental illness. Thousands of patient's bodies are scattered through the property. Disturbing to say the least. #millidgeville #millidgevilleasylum #centralstatehospital #haunted #haunting #spooky #creepy #history #hauntedhistory #georgia #georgiahauntings #travel #traveling #abandonedplaces #abandoned #abandonedbuilding #abandonedphotography #paranormal #scaryplaces #haunting #ghosts #ghosthunting #spirits #ghosthunters #hauntedplaces
Who likes sanding small and large polka dots off w Who likes sanding small and large polka dots off walls. Thumbs down 👎  I'm way past due about 4 years. My daughter's teacher on zoom said, "Nice Polka Dots, Abby." Well, I had no choice as she removed everything off the walls! 😂 She demands white after having pink and white polka dots for years. 😂 Painting with "Pearly White" from Sherwin Williams. Finally, redecorating! Our house took part in the "Street of Dreams, years ago and the walls were already specially painted, drapes and valences hung. It's hard to let go of the younger years, but it's time. I'll post before and after photos. #teen #teendecor #redecorating #interiordesign #interior #painting #paint #redo #sherwinwilliams

I hope all my friends had a wonderful Christmas. T I hope all my friends had a wonderful Christmas. The night before Christmas Eve, my son was driving home from school and fell sickly about half way. He made it to a rest area and we headed that way to help him. He was tested twice before he left for "Covid." 2 tests! We assumed he had a bad cold but took no chances. When we arrived we masked up, sanitized his car and my husband drove him home. We could find no where to test as places were booked or closed until after Christmas. We all get tested. My son was positive and the rest of the family was negative. Even though he is 20, it's quite frightening. He was very sick for 3 days but now doing much better. He is tucked away in our home and the rest of our family is quarantined. A little overwhelmed Christmas Day. A breath of fresh air and the sight of the moon gave me a sense of calm I needed. Anxiety off the rails! #covid #covid_19 #hope #prayer #trustingod #christmas #outdoorchristmasdecor #moon #moonlight #findingpeace
Wow! It's a chilly night here in Georgia. My son i Wow! It's a chilly night here in Georgia. My son is home from "Alabama" to work the championship game this weekend. He snapped a few photos of the outside view. We moved our nativity to the side because our dang bushes have grown so large at the corner, they block good views of the decorations. I love this  nativity I purchased years ago @frontgate and it's still in superb condition. Displays what Christmas is all about. ❤️ #nativity #christmas #christmasdecor #christmasoutdoordecor #jesus #merrychristmas #atlanta #georgia #tyrone #frontgate
