Buddy's Dream

Image
Finally back to work out on the claim! We have a New Gold Claim here now called, " BUDDY'S DREAM". We let the other claim go. We are still in the Bradshaw Mountain Range. There are three partners to this mining claim, therefore we have 60 acres.  The monsoons have started and we are checking out parts of the creek I have wanted to check for years!  You see I have been waiting to claim this area for 15 years and it finally became available! Enjoy the  photos. If you want bigger gold you gotta move boulders! So here is how the story unfolds!  We dug down to bedrock the first week down creek from the boulder.  Then Buddy uses his Handmade Vac.  This is Cindy, my Wife.

Repurposed Home Decor

Well I have seen a lot of different things "repurposed" in my day but not as Unique as this! From the Ellie Decor magazine. A collector of old water cans, I and with the help of my husband made a "Watercan Waterfall" in my wooden barrel planter last year. Now this was my first Video.  Need some Vintage Beads? They were intended for Macrame years ago. I reused a few in a Unique Way. A Fish Bowl! Create a little Serenity! To see more of my Vintage Supplies go to my Facebook Business Page called Craft Flaire. Thanks for Visiting! Cindy from Craft Flaire.

Classic Summer Dessert Made Low-Cal

STRAWBERRY Shortcake Low-calorie angel food cake picks up the smoke and char of the grill and is topped with strawberries soaked in balsamic vinegar and black pepper To deliver flavor, the corporate cook relies on hulking scoops of ice cream, oversize brownies, and floods of molten chocolate. The home cook doesn't need such waist-expanding, palate-blunting effects to make dessert memorable. Here, low-calorie angel food cake picks up the smoke and char of the grill and is topped with strawberries soaked in balsamic vinegar and black pepper, an irresistible combination adored throughout northern Italy.
