Something Sunny

Hopefully no one will mind if I take a minute to brag on my hubby. He went by the store for me on Monday night and brought home to me these wonderful sunny yellow and green flowers. He does this from time to time. No rhyme or reason. No holiday. Just because. I love that. Thanks dear! You are so wonderful to me.


Aren't they incredibly cheery? Just perfect in my little thrifted pitcher that usually holds my kitchen sink brushes.

Speaking of sunny, I thought with mother's day coming up, someone might enjoy this delicious tasting salad. In our extended family we almost always have a congealed salad when we get together for a special meal. This recipe was given to us at my daughter's Girl Scout meeting a couple of weeks ago. They were learning about heritage and were to make a recipe that has been handed down in their family. We also tasted the recipes. This is delicious. I look forward to making it this year.

Pineapple Cream Cheese Salad

1 pint crushed pineapple
1/2 cup sugar
pinch of salt
cook 5 min.

Dissolve one package Knox gelatin in 1/2 cup water.

Add to hot mixture.

Remove from stove. Add one 1 large package of cream cheese to pineapple mixture.

Add a couple of drops of food coloring then cool.

Add 1/2 pint of cool whip. Pour into mold and let set overnight.

I can just taste the zing of the pineapple while I'm typing.

We will have some more fun finds tomorrow late in the day. Hope you have had a great hump day.
