An owl of a giveaway and preserved lemons recipe...


Happy Saturday Evening.... 
Welcome to the Blessed Hearth tonight.. 
So glad you dropped by... 

Just wanted to share a wee giveaway with you tonight to celebrate the changing of the season... 
We will now be getting ready for Christmas, eh? 

One of our grandsons visited with me yesterday and while we chatted I made this wee owl... 

As you can see he is only as big as my hand.. smile.. 

To get a chance to win him there are 2 requirements.. 

1.. Be a follower of the blog .

2.. Leave a comment and tell me what state or province you live in..

OK? 
We will draw a winner on Monday night.. Nov.. 5... 
You can live most anywhere as this is such a small parcel.. 

Good...
 Now I also mentioned that we made some preserved lemons...



I love these and try to have a bottle always on hand.. 
I chop them up and put them in my salads or fish or on my oven fries or in my salsa.... yada yada yada.. smile... 

Here is one link although there are many on the web.. 

I followed this recipe and didn't add any spices.. 
Nor did I use a mason jar as I had just washed this one and it was sitting there on the counter waiting to be used.. smile... 

Well, dear ladies have an awesome Lord's Day and we will try and get together again after the weekend.. 

I will be looking for your comments... 
God bless..

  12. I think it would be owl-wise of me to put my name in for this cutie... don't you think?

    I live in Southeastern, PA. and just came home from a Barn Party with friends. Fun to sit down (warm up with another cup of hot coffee or two) and read about this giveaway going on.

  18. I love the little owl, Faye. My grandmother, who passed away 2 years ago, had such a love for owls. She had owl everything in her home. Even her cookoo clock had an owl that came out to announce the hour. LOL! This little one reminds me of her. I would love to be entered for a chance to win. Thank you!

  20. Hi Faye..
    So cute, that owl. How fun to spend time with your grandson, and do a creative craft together. I'm certain that is a precious memory, he will always have.

    I'm going to give your peasant bread a try.. will let you know how it turns out.

    We are set to have pleasant weather here, in Utah, and I'm hoping to get just a few more outside things done.
    I bought some darling metal sunflowers, that will look perfect placed behind some of my herbs.

    May your week be full of smiles, a little laughter, and many blessings.

    I must try this bread...yummy. :)

    I think I am not only a follower of the blog but addicted. :) I look back on past ones all the time. I thought of you this weekend, found your chocolate chip recipe with the "secret" ingredient. My son Colin loves them so much. :)

    I live in Sussex, New Brunswick and would love to be entered into your draw for the cute Owl.

    Looking forward to reading with you all week.

    Hugs to you Faye,
    Krista
