Treasures from Granny - Sparta Hilton Part 6c



I love Lucy at the Sparta Hilton? 
Nothing is too good for us.

These brownies were our pre-breakfast and snacks.
Do you know what pre-breakfast means?  It means this is what you eat before the real breakfast is done!

"Sweet Hunter" left early in the morning for the woods. 
When I got ready to get up this is what I did.  I ate a brownie or 2, had my morning coke and watched "I Love Lucy"!
What a life!

I know that you have already saw my bed in a previous post but I was putting on clean sheets before we left and decided to show you my wonderful king size bed that I only paid 150.00 dollars for!  It is like sleeping on a cloud.

Mom gave me these beautiful pillow cases. I just love them.

This bed is looking so good it makes me want to crawl back in!

Now it's made up so I am not as tempted. 
Did I tell you that "sweet hunter" wants a quilt with deer on it?
He usually gets what he wants. 
I will never forget a few weeks before Granny passed away, "Sweet Hunter" told me to buy the fabric and get Granny to make the quilt.  I asked him why he didn't want me to do it.  He said he would like to see it in his lifetime!!! lol

"Sweet Hunter" vacuums and washes dishes too!
He is a real man.

This is part of the real breakfast.  The last time we were here we cooked breakfast on the fire.  We froze the meat that was left and I cooked it on our little stove.  Yes, that is canned biscuits and they were soooo good!  Our hunting buddy, Rog's mother made some muscadine jelly and it made this breakfast complete.

Don't forget the gravy too!  When it was finished it was really good.
Evidently I didn't get a picture of it when it was ready to eat.

Do you remember the little dish pan on the right?  Granny wanted me to have that.  I treasure it but I also use it.
Granny did most everything in that little dish pan and so do I.

When Granny was still quilting away one of my blogging friends Connie sent Granny this USA fabric.
It was one of the last quilts that Granny made.  She gave it to me because one of my friends sent her the fabric.
She must have knew that she was going to leave us because any other time she would have wanted me to sell it.
I will treasure this quilt forever too.  Thank you Connie.

It even has the famous "Granny border" on it.  As you remember I got Granny's bed too so this quilt is on her bed.
It is amazing to think of how many quilts she layed on this bed to measure and pin together with her one pin.
I will treasure her bed forever too.

Here is Granny's bed all made up and ready for the "honeymooners" to come and visit.
Last time they came to the Sparta Hilton all we did was work so it is a little different now.
We have our bed and Granny's bed in our room.  See the little white chest in the corner? 
That was Granny's little chest that she had in her bathroom. 
I will always treasure that too.

SNIPPETS FROM MY HEART
Life takes us to many different places.  Last year at this time I would have never thought that Granny would not be quilting away in her little house. I would have never thought that I would be using her furniture in our little Sparta Hilton.  I would never have thought that I would love this little home away from home like I do.  I sure would not have thought that I would be serious about hunting.  You just never know what life will bring you.  Amazing.
