Our Trip to Beaver Lake

We had an amazing time at Beaver Lake outside of Eureka Springs. The weather was perfect. The leaves we're beautiful. Changing leaves and cooler weather make me happy! It was relaxing and we needed relaxing.
The cutoff road to the cabins. Maybe it was part of a spook trail or something.
Our cabin was on the mountain top. The bottom was closed off since we didn't need the space.
The inside was a little rustic for my taste, but I understand why they decorate that way.
There was a family of six deer that lived in the wooded part below the cabin. They would come out to graze each morning. 
Again the view was AMAZING!!!!!!!!
I thought there would be places to eat around the cabin, but there wasn't so we went into Eureka Springs to eat Friday night. The place we anted to eat at had a wait time of over an hour and Kev had forgotten his wallet, so no waiting and drinking. We ended up at this wonderful Mexican place. I love how all the restaurants and shops are in old houses/buildings.



































Saturday we walked around downtown and browsed the shops.
 We also went by the famous Haunted Cresent Hotel. We didn't go in, hjust drove throughthe parking lot
Lunch Saturday was at a wonderful little family owned catfish place. They even had homemade fried pies. Yes, we got one.
We definitely want to go back. The lake cabins are amazing and just a short drive into town.

Ballyseede Castle

   Tralle was a good stopping point from Dingle to Doolin. When looking for places to stay I came across the Ballyseede Castle Hotel. It was a little pricey, but since we had such great deals on all of the other B&Bs, I splurged. It's one of the best known Castle Hotels in Ireland, has a history dating back to the 1590’s and sits on 30 acres of native woodlands. The castle has 23 en-suite bedrooms and 3 beautiful private rooms complimented by enchanting formal gardens. To read about the history of the castle click here. We stayed in the Coghill room.   We had a nice view of the gardens. Here are other pictures from inside the castle. We had to have our picture made with the knights.   We Googled and found a restaurant in town that was supposed to be delicious. It was nestled on the shore overlooking the bay. We arrived about 5:30 and watched the sunset. The food was fabulous, however the service was not. ...

Inspired by Pinterest

I've been wanting to try these Chicken Lasagna Roll-ups I found on Pinterest. Since Kev's been working out of town, I figured it would be a great dish for this week. I could keep some and he could take the rest with him. (I also made Mexican Cornbread too.) Eating out every meal gets old. Anyways. Here is the original recipe. I changed it up some. I mixed together 15 oz. ricotta, 1 cup mozzarella cheese, egg, thawed frozen spinach (squeeze water out of it), and chicken (I always use a rotisserie chicken). Seasoned it with salt, pepper, garlic, and a little Italian seasoning. I never measure, just add a palmful until it tastes like I want it to.  Mixture I grabbed a handful of the mixture and spread it onto the noodle and rolled it up. Leave a little space at the end so the mixture doesn't gush out when you roll it up. Once all of them are made, I poured the  tomato sauce  I made yesterday over them. I added a little water to my sauce to thin it o...

Can't Wait to Finally Have a Garage!

This morning it was 28 degrees outside! I warmed my car up for 20 minutes and all the frost still wasn't off the windows. I can't wait til next winter when I will have a garage to park in. Not only for winter months but all months truly. In the fall I always get acorns and leaves stuck in my window. In the summer my car is always covered in bird poop and hot and in spring it's covered in pollen. Just one of the reasons I'm so excited about building a house. Having garage to park in!
