REDnesday in the Kitchen

It is that time again!
REDnesday!!
Thank you to Sue over at
for hosting this every week.

One day not too long ago I was at Big Lots looking for something for work.
Did not find what I was looking for, but I did spot this tin with RED on it.
Of course I had to get it.
I am using it to hold measuring spoons.
Now I want to get a set of RED measuring spoons!


Here is another view of my new thingy!
I already had that hot pad and decided to add it to my display.

Another thing I found the same day! 
Yay! 
It is still sitting on the counter.
Perhaps this weekend we will finally get it hung up.


A new RED vegetable brush.
I had to get it since it was RED!


This picture of us was taken on Sunday when we were celebrating
our niece's birthday. The same one I have posted about on my craft blog when I was teaching
her to sew. Now my other niece wants me to teach her to sew too!
Plans for that this weekend.
But that will depend on how my dad is doing.


This was taken on Sunday also. Dad went to the hospital the next day and is still there.
He happened to be wearing RED that day.
I will be visiting him after work today.
Prayers for healing for my father.
And prayers for strength for my mother.
Thanks.

Love your apple tin and sign! It's fun when you're out shopping, and a theme starts to develop in the things that you're buying. It was definitely an apple day for you!
You and your Dad are in my thoughts and prayers.
Happy REDnesday!

I hope your dad gets to feeling better and can come home soon. Sending prayers for all of you.

I love this idea with the measuring spoons! I just picked up a couple of little fall buckets with some red. Now I know where they are going.

I don't know if you've seen the button on my sidebar but we're having a Northern CA bloggers luncheon called Festival at the Green Pea, in Escalon on Oct. 9th. If you're interested let me know!
Hugs,
Dawn

Hi Linnea,
Thanks so much for visiting my blog. Beringer is my absolute FAVORITE wine. I could make dozens of napkin rings with my Beringer corks. LOL I would love to visit that winery. What part of California is it in?

Dear Linnea~
Thank you for being such a devoted friend. I wish I were as good at it as you. I often stop by but as energy leaves my body I all too often neglect to leave a comment.

Prayers are heading your way for your father.

I promise to repent and leave more messages.
Jan
