Am I losing my mind?  Where did the pic go?  @ChiliPepper  did you edit it out or am I ready for the looney bin???  LOL

It was there one sec and when I went to reply...poof! 

You always find the most touching AND most funny pictures!

We truly DO always have something to be Thankful for!  I must even learn to be thankful for the dark, gloomy weather we have today...and probably for the next 5 days!

Be Thankful in ALL things!!

No, you are not going crazy - this time anyways! 

I posted the picture & then was trying to add words to it & it wouldn't let me so the picture got deleted & then I re-entered it.

That's a lot of thought for my little brain this early LOL!!!

The latest thing my family has been devouring is homemade pimento cheese!   From what I have determined, Price's pimento cheese is the only store bought version that is slightly acceptable.  We can't get it in our area and what we can get is awful!  Couldn't imagine why everyone made such a fuss until I made my own.  What rock have I been under all my life?!   Do any of you have a recipe you would like to share?  Will share mine if anyone is interested!

Yep, us too. We are supposed to get rain for the next week.

Therefore, this was me (well - almost) last night:

The pimiento cheese topic has come up before, and the last time I saw it come up, I posted this on the Recipe forum:

Grocery stores (including Costco) sell larger containers of a more authentically southern-style pimiento spread.  One recipe for this type of spread is:
 
PIMIENTO CHEESE SPREAD (Crostini, optional)
 
8 ounces sharp cheddar, shredded
4 ounces cream cheese
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 small jar pimientos, drained and chopped
2 scallions, trimmed and sliced
1 teaspoon garlic powder
pinch of cayenne pepper
 
In a bowl, combine cheddar, cream cheese and mayo.
Beat with hand mixer on medium speed until blended and fairly smooth.
Stir in remaining ingredients, cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight.
 
To serve on something other than crackers or stuffed in celery:
 
Heat broiler to high.
Place 1/4-inch baguette slices on 2 small baking sheets.
Brush both sides with oil.
Toast under broiler, 4 inches from heat for two minutes.
Flip over and broil another 1 to 2 minutes,
 
Spread 1 heaping tablespoon of cheese spread on each toast.
