Just because

 I do things these days just because I have the time and I can. 

I recently made this shadowbox card from Myscrapchick.com 


It was very easy to make and it folds flat if you want to mail it.


Other than that, today I have a picture I took of a recent very yummy dinner. It seems like I do very little cooking these days. I rely a lot on things I've cooked and frozen in smaller portions or easy meals like airy fryer wrap sandwiches. I decided to try some pork chops in the air fryer the one day. I coated them with some shake and bake for pork that I had in the cupboard. It came out super yummy and cooked in just 15 minutes.

By the time I got done eating all this I was stuffed. I probably should have only gone with half a baked potato.

That meal looks really yummy. We had pork chops yesterday but roasted them in the oven. I would like to try doing them in the air fryer. Your shadow box is so cute!

Also, you need to do things not just cause they are there, or cause you have the time, you need to do something you WANT to do.

Ann the latest craft is adorable...and easily mailed. I guess it is on your FB page for sale.
Your meal looks delicious
I'm running late this morning we had a new fridge delivered (after 2 1/2 months of waiting), Delivery and removal went well just a few hiccups.
One guy will be back after 5pm to finish with the icemaker.
Needed a part that wasn't with it.

I love the card, and it sounds as if your air fryer is a gem.

That card is so unique . . . love it!
Looking at your dinner made me realize that I have not had a baked potato in forever . . . and they are so good. When I was a little girl I remember always wanting to sit by my sister's husband if Mom made bake potatoes, because he would never eat the skin and I have always thought that it's the best part. :)

Ann your card is really special. Your meal looks extra delicious. I am such a great fan of pork chops. The air fryer must keep them really moist and good. Take care and have a great day - hugs!
