Buddy Friday - Homemade and home grown is the best....

I mentioned the other day that my dad had made me a set of book shelves from some old barn board we had on the property. I finally got them varnished, I put three coats on them and they look smashing.

So on Thursday I set about filling them. This is what they looked like before I started to fill them up:

This is the side of them, my dad made them fancy.

This is my best friend "Dolly," without her I wouldn't have been able to cart all the books up from the basement. "Dolly," is my second best friend after the lawn tractor and trailer.
I had seven boxes of books to unpack.


Here is the after, all my books neatly sorted. I even unpacked a box of ornaments, and put some on the top shelf.

I dug up a potato top for supper and picked some more raspberries, I make mini Pavlova's with them, using individual meringue bases, raspberries and fresh cream.........they are yummy!!

So basically what I am saying I am lucky to have a dad who can build such lovely furniture and I am lucky I can go into the garden and harvest such lovely fruit and vegetables.
