Today I wish to show you ahat box I covered for my
Mother...a loooong time ago...
(click to see all the details)
and tell you about the 'hat' inside.
and tell you about the 'hat' inside.
It is actually a pillow. The little photo in the
pocket watch frame is my parents--
young and in love.
And they are still in love today.
Take your hat off...dinner's on the table!And now I would like to tell you that
my son is a great Dutch oven cook!
He makes the best fried chicken,
finger lickin' good!
Then he got the idea to cook a roast.
Built the frame from cedar
cut on our property.
Also striped a cedar branch
to hold the meat.
Then we show the wonderful result.
And since I'm bragging...I will also
tell you he plays a mean fiddle.
Old Time Texas Fiddle music.
We will be traveling to Weiser, Idaho
in June for a fiddle contest.

ReplyDeleteThe Fiddlers Contest sounds like fun! Best of luck to your son!
I think I recognize native rock on your house in the picture, and the cedar clinches it -- HILL COUNTRY -- I used to live in Georgetown, I wonder if you are anywhere near there! The houses were so pretty with all that native stone. But the yards were just ALL rocks! Live way out in West Texas now, very different indeed.
ReplyDeleteYour son is surely a young man to be proud of! Talented in many ways!
I LOVE his ingenuity...and cooking skills!! Best to him in the fiddle contest!
ReplyDeleteThat hatbox is amazing. You are so neat!
ReplyDeleteAnd you're lucky to have a chef growing up at your house. Oooo, the meals you must enjoy. Thanks for sharing. Happy Show and Tell Friday.
Lovely hat box and it's great that you've taught your son to cook! It's a lost art to many young men!
ReplyDeleteMost only can cook by opening up a can of Bampbell's or a package of hot dogs. Back when I was in school, they used to have a class for the young men called bachelor survival.
Wow, you have raised a multi-talented young man. I would want him with me if we were stuck in the woods. The food looks yummy.
ReplyDeleteThe hatbox and pillow are sweet. Wonderful idea! That is an interesting way to cook also! Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteOh my, what talent! The girls will just die knowing that about him! I'm sure they already do! I'd love to taste some of those roast and chicken!
