Art

When I was a child I loved making string art by pounding nails into a wooden board and then wrapping string around the nails until you achieved a weaved pattern. Instead of using nails and a wooden board I used a 12" X 12" canvas with a wooden frame and a needle. String Art

Old Fashion

Southern Living Magazine posted a recipe for a frozen peach old fashion and I thought of my Dad. He loved hot summers in the South, ate tomato sandwiches, fresh peaches and loved drinking Old Fashions. Southern Livings version was too sweet so I made a slimmed down version of a Frozen Peach Old Fashion.
