Lately I've been busy just looking at Pinterest. It is sooooo addicting. I'm now starting to get ready for fall. I'm taking out all of my Halloween decorations and deciding where everything needs to be. I also want to start my fall garden. My chickens have dwindled down to 7 hens, hopefully I will get some more but we will need a bigger chicken coop. I tried a new recipe which my whole family has requested I bake again. Here it is:<br />
<u></u><br />
<u>PECAN PIE MUFFINS- makes 12 muffins</u><br />
<br />
1 cup chopped pecans<br />
1 cup brown sugar<br />
1/2 cup all purpose flour<br />
2 large eggs<br />
1 1/3 cup butter, melted<br />
<br />
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place paper liners in muffin tin and spray with canola oil.<br />
In large bowl combine pecans, brown sugar and flour. Mix and make a well.<br />
In separate bowl beat the eggs until foamy. Add melted butter and stir to combine well. Pour the egg mixture into well of flour mixture. Stir until moistened. Spoon batter into the cup liners. Bake until toothpick comes out clean. About 20 min.Irma's Rose Cottagehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13553430635731577392noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-304303027830009014.post-16013189737214620632012-04-04T14:03:00.002-05:002012-04-04T14:03:39.814-05:00TIME FLYS BY FAST<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I did not raise her to become a <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">cannibal</span>... and she is starting to set a bad <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">influence</span> on <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">Ethyl</span>. Now Lucy has been conspiring with <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">Ethyl</span> to join her evil ways. I just don't know what to do. I have been listening for her cackle every morning and I rush out to try to save those eggs. Some days I'm lucky and some days she beats me in recovering those precious eggs and she just flips her little beak up in the air as to say ... eggs, what eggs, there are no eggs in this nest today. I had been wondering for a while why I was not finding Lucy and <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">Ethyl's</span> eggs until one day I caught her (Lucy) in the act...pecking away at the eggs. Right now she doesn't know how lucky she is in getting away with this act. If DH finds out I'm for sure she will become next Sunday's dinner. Yep.....she just doesn't know how lucky she is.<br /><br />Irma :)Irma's Rose Cottagehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13553430635731577392noreply@blogger.com14tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-304303027830009014.post-32950702440095521392010-12-16T19:56:00.004-06:002010-12-16T20:10:55.793-06:00Holiday Fun For EveryoneIf you are in the area of Eagle Lake, Texas this Saturday Dec. 18th...come by and enjoy a fantastic Christmas Holiday Event.

I was having trouble uploading my pics. I did'nt know what to post so I just posted my little Christmas tree. I didn't have time to put up my big tree for Christmas, but I guess it turned out to be OK as I didn't have to spend to much time taking down my decorations. Hope everyone had a great Christmas and New Year. I know...I'm a little late. I now need to start thinking of Valentine decorations.<br /><br />Well, just wanted to let everyone know I'm still here.
