T Stands for 8 Years (And Counting)

 Hi everyone. Happy almost middle of July. Boy this month is going soooo fast. 

And happy T day too. Today is the 8th anniversary of T, which is very exciting. Happy 8th year of hosting Elizabeth, and of course, thank you for doing this!

Here is the link to this week's T day post: Bleubeard and Elizabeth's blog.

 I will raise a glass (or can in this instance) to T day and all your ladies who make it special. I know not everyone is a beer drinker, but even if you don't like beer this label with the great horned owl is pretty outstanding. 

And I was surprised to read on the back that it is not because of an owl that this beer got its name, but because of a fly that fly fishing people use.

We have only one restaurant in our town, which is part of a small (3 restaurant) local chain. At the main restaurant they have started brewing beer, and this is one of their beers. It is called Northwoods Beer because the brewery is located in Northwood, New Hampshire. This was our first try, and it was pretty good.

I am sitting on the only really sunny storm/rain free day (this past Saturday) we've had in over a week on my MIL's dock enjoying this beer. 

Last week  and the start of this week, we seemed to have had  a lot of humidity and  are also still having a lot of rain. The rain was  needed so no complaints, but boy has the weather thrown me out of my walking routine. 

With a some heavy rain last Friday, I did make some sourdough English muffins.

If you would like one with butter with your T day drink, they are very yummy. I haven't been much in a bread baking mood, but a cool dark day motivated me. I've made these several times before, and here's the recipe if you are interested: Sourdough English Muffins.

The rain did make for some wonderful art days too.

I added my asterick to make an ATC for this T day anniversary, and when I was making mine, I got on a roll and made a bunch of them. Now I must say my ATC's this year are more random sized and not true ATC size. I'm not against doing the standard size (which is 2.5x3.5) but sometimes you just have to break rules. Smile. Sorry  in advance if you are to receive mine and have an ATC binder you try to store them in. My sort of ATC's are still small and rectangular and could be playing card size. I just wasn't much in the mood to measure them.

Although I am not going to share what I made to send, I thought I would share a few of the others with you.

I call these  the princess ones.

These great girls are bringing you flowers and love for this 8th anniversary.

That's about all that's new here with me. Hope you have some sunshine and wonderful July days.

Thanks for visiting.
