Warmth - Joy - Happiness:<br />
<br />
May these all be yours during the holidays and in the comining year.<br />
<br />
Lot’s of hustle going on one at Getting-Into-truffle. I would like to invite you to follow me as I turn our home into a winter wonderland - mostly traditions from my chest of treasures; but a few “new” items and fun, festive ideas. Happy Holidays!<br />
<br />
The first look at our skinny tree ---<br />
<br />
(Note: Please don’t let Mr. Truffle know what I’m up to. I’m on “medical” and he doesn’t know that I’m still working!)<br />

No doubt about it, fall is here. I was lucky enough to get out for a short errand and it was a beautiful day. Please take a look and let me know what you think.<br />

I’m a house-wise housewife who loves a great escape. I want to thank Amy who makes all of this possible. Her attention to detail and talent for hospitality made for a wonderful time. Rhonda, the new chef at the Inn, but certainly not new to award winning meals is amazing. But I’m saving the best for last…….thank you whoever happened to cancel and I was able to step in and take your place. <br />

Amanda enjoyed and was delighted with her surprise of a dozen, beautiful roses along with a box of designer strawberries. How sweet is her husband? Thanks Scott, they were divine. Now back to everyday life at home in the burbs. Maybe I should make my next reservation now???!!!<br />

I want to thank my high school friends, neighbors and family who were able to gather at Craw-daddy’s, Jenson Beach, Florida. I have to admit time has been kind to all of us; unlike Florida’s summer heat. <br />

The Inn-At-Tilton Place is a wonderful establishment; it is over a hundred years old and sits overlooking the inter-costal waterway on the Atlantic side of Florida. I have known of the site since it was a private residence. I was pleasantly surprised that the same family has owned the place since it was built in 1906.<br />

While very private and non-commercial, a two-block walk will take you into Jenson Beach’s main street with an assortment of restaurants and taverns. It was lovely sitting on the balcony and being serenaded by the jazz combo in one of the outside clubs.<br />

Dark, gloomy & lots of rain! My Motor City Monday is a bit different today. This is a stay-in kinda day. But, what will I share with my people? A special letter to one of my favorite fans, Ms. Mona. This is a tribute to you.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Dear Mona: Blogging has been more then writing posts; I’ve met some great friends along the way. I can always count on you for comments and positive suggestions. You’ve contributed to the look of my site more then you realize. Then I found you were a fellow Lilly-lover and I realized we must be sisters. I appreciate your thoughtfulness. My only complaint is that we live to far apart to meet for a morning coffee break. (I know, you prefer tea!)<br />

Don’t you feel pleased when finding a fabulous deal while thrifting? This was a Craigslist find. Two rod iron chairs for $35. Very sturdy while providing a traditional look for my small patio space. The cushions needed to be updated and I could foresee something nice.<br />

A new staple gun from Home Depot, and I was packing and ready. Of course I wanted the chic new patio sets that all the fine garden centers offer. However, this look fit our budget. Thanks for looking. Let me know what you think!<br />

It’s Sunday night and we wanted to have a good meal to start the week off. With the warmer season upon us, we are opening up the patio. While reviewing menu choices, the decision was for pasta and a nice bottle of wine. Have you noticed that as the weather warms, simpler foods, in moderation seem to be perfect. <br />

We find there are two more guests.<br />

Aren’t they a cute couple! Anne was a knock-out in her figure flattering dress. Isn’t Glen the lucky guy? The food was five-star and the music would have done Motown proud. <br />

Here’s the scoop, I normally don’t use coupons. There’s the gluten issue, but more importantly, we try to shop for ingredients to cook rather then processed foods or prepared meals. <br />
<br />
I receive coupon offers via e-mail. Normally they are ignored, but last week I decided to respond to a regional supermarket’s offer and what a pleasant surprise.<br />

This is the story of modern marketing. You see sale items at this store are only honored if you use their store issued card at time of purchase. It is a tool which the market uses to compile information on who shops at which of their stores and monitors what the customer’s preferences are.<br />

My response to the supermarket brought a pile of store issued coupons on items I normally purchase. Much nicer then looking at the Sunday paper hoping to find a coupon for what you need for the week.<br />

<br />
A tasty appetizer, <br />
<br />
SAVORY ALMOND AND CHEESE STRAWS<br />
<br />
1 lb. puff pastry dough<br />
<br />
1 egg, beaten with 1 teaspoon water<br />
<br />
¾ cup grated dry cheese, like Parmesan or aged Gouda<br />
<br />
¾ cup almonds, chopped<br />
<br />
Flour for dusting<br />
<br />
Thaw pastry overnight in refrigerator or 40 minutes at room temperature. Unfold pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. With the shorter side facing you, roll out each sheet to 12 by 12 inches. Cut each sheet in half, lengthwise.<br />
<br />
Brush dough with egg mix and sprinkle with an even coating of cheese and almonds. With rolling pin, lightly press the mixture into the dough. Cut each half crosswise into ¾-inch strips. Place on parchment lined baking sheets and refrigerate for 30 minutes before baking.<br />
<br />

Let me know how they came out. Mine were yummy!<br />

I was feeling that today’s venture was not very fabulous. Grocery shopping, post office, gas and a few other errands. Then I had a “Moment“. What was I thinking? I was where I wanted to be. I was where I was supposed to be, doing what a modern homemaker does. I was bonding with my responsibilities in life and nothing is better then doing what you love.<br />

Sounds juicy! When did we outgrow slumber parties…?? How many of you have fond memories of some great evenings filled with boy talk, snacks, boy talk, games, boy talk, pillow fights and more boy talk? While on FB, I came across a group of young ladies (one of my friend’s daughters) who were having a slumber party with their besties and babies. It got me to thinking….time to break the rules and have a good old-fashioned slumber party. I will keep you posted.<br />

<br />
Hi all, I am Mrs. Truffle. Tonight is my first night out, but before we start, a thank-you to very talented Marty G. of Stuart, Florida for my new look.<br />
<br />
And now, let me introduce myself. I’m a stay-at-home housewife, but of a modern vintage. I enjoy cooking and entertaining and think of myself as a Midwestern Martha Stewart.<br />
<br />
I have created this space to share my joy of life and share ideas in cooking, decorating and entertaining. As always, your thoughts and comments are valued.<br />
<br />
Please come by often, we will be sharing photos, scrapbook ideas, cupcake recipes and tablescapes. <br />
<br />
<br />

Start your engine and follow my path as I blaze through the community. Do you enjoy taking a drive just to see what you can see? <br />
<br />
Today’s venture was rather short due to Michigan’s spring weather. Though I am pleased I took the time to get out. I really enjoyed seeing the beautiful bright yellow tulips swaying in the wind.<br />
