Hi friends. I just wanted to update you on the crochet lap blanket that I've been working on for the winter. In case you missed the post I did of this lap blanket I'm making, and the details for the yarn, and pattern, you can click HERE.
Shown below is how much progress I've made on the blanket.
Thanks everyone and enjoy!

Shown below is how much progress I've made on the blanket.
I'm more that half way finished crocheting this blanket, and I just need to finish a small section of it. It will be donated to our annual crochet sale that we will have at my church in the fall.
I will be so happy to have this lap blanket all finished and then I'll be on to more crochet projects of course.
Do you have any fun, and crafty projects that you are working on right now?
Wishing you all a nice weekend and see on Monday for Cooking and Crafting with J & J!

I took this photo when I was in lower Manhattan in the beginning of last summer 2015. We were visiting the Wall Street area. I captured this shot of Trinity Church in New York City. To read more about Trinity Church you can click HERE. The day that we went to visit this area, it was a cloudy and rainy day. This is a wonderful area of New York City to visit, sightsee, and explore. I do hope that you have the chance to visit it someday.

Hello friends, I hope you had a nice week. With the weather so cold here, there is nothing that beats the winter chill like a bowl of hot soup. Delicious hot soup just warms you up, and I have this easy crock pot soup recipe to share with you.
Here it is cooking away in the crock pot.
In just a few hours you will have this hearty soup done and waiting for you. This is the perfect weeknight or weekend meal. All you need is some bread and a salad and you have an easy dinner. This makes a very large batch and I had it for lunch the next day. You can also save this for another meal and put it into a container to freeze.
PASTA KALE AND WHITE BEAN SOUP
Serves 8 to 10 people
Ingredients:
4 cups kale - chopped, fresh or frozen
1 package dried navy beans - rinsed with water
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1/2 lb. small pasta - I used Anelli Sicilani - (you can use any small pasta you like)
1 chicken bouillon cube
salt and pepper to taste
1 teaspoon dried parsley
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 - 8 oz. can tomato sauce
9 cups of water
Directions:
Add everything to the crock pot except the pasta. Put setting on crock pot to HIGH and cook for about 6 hours. About a half hour before soup is done, add the pasta to the crock pot and cook until pasta is done.
Enjoy!

I took this photo all the way back in September of 2015, when my family and I were in New York City. This is a photo of the Empire State Building on a rainy night. I remember just loving the way the buildings and everything looked with all of the lights just glowing in the dark. I thought it looked amazing with the clouds and the top of the Empire State Building all lit up. To read more about the Empire State Building you can click HERE.

This is a photo I took, while I was looking outside my dinning room window when we had the blizzard. It started snowing on January 22, 2016 until the 24th. We had so much snow that it's total was 26 inches (2 feet). There was so much snow outside that it came all the way up to the top of the car tires. I love the way the snow drifts look. We were so lucky that the snow melted within a few days. Since then we had another small snow storm in total of 3 inches of snow. This week we have also had a few snow flurries but no accumulation of snow.
Have you had any snow in your area this winter?
Thanks everyone and enjoy!
Julie
