Hi and welcome back everyone to my new coffee with Steve series that I started 18 days ago.  I actually was planning to have this every other week, but, it got to be a bit longer.  I hope you haven’t forgotten about this too much yet.😂😹 But don’t worry, that’s okay if you have forgotten.  Hopefully in the New Year this will be a more regular feature of Steve’s Country.  Plus some other new things coming up as well, but more on that another time.

Please feel free to join in with our little coffee time, bring some of your favorite cookies, cake or other goodies for us to sample and we can just sit and chat for a while.  I will always have lots of coffee on hand, but don’t expect to find flavored coffees, sorry about that if that is your favorite.  I will also have some tea, herbal tea and hot chocolate available, all are perfect for our cold winter weather.

Hi Renee, so nice that you could drop in today, I will get your coffee for you right away. Pick yourself a chair and here is your coffee, with my very own Spritz cookies.  It is such a beautiful sunny day and that really makes this little apartment so nice and bright.  But not much bird activity for us to enjoy today.  Jessica, are you ready to enjoy some of my homemade raspberry leaf tea?  Anyone else ready for some more coffee?  And how about you Richard?  You must need a refill by now.

Well, there may not be many birds around, but how about if I show you some of my handmade items?  Actually, most everything in here was made by me, that includes nearly all my furniture.  Handmade things helps to give a more country look to a place and that’s what I like.  I enjoy country living but now live in town so I try to bring as much country to me as I possibly can.  Also, one of the nice things about the country look is, things don’t need to be perfect.  And since I can’t do things perfectly, then this is perfect.😀😀  I think. 🤔 But not too often,😂😹 it gives me a headache.😨  Sigh.🙄

As you can see, I like to try some sewing projects now and then too.  I find it quite relaxing and a rather fun hobby.  Especially on those winter days, or any other day, when I can’t get outside for one reason or another.  And I like blue and white, a color combination that is next to impossible to find around here.  So I make it myself.  And it’s a nice accent color that fits well with wood furniture.

I know everyone is still likely very busy with the end of the year just around the corner.  Any special plans for the New Year?  I have a lot of ideas for 2020, though I’m not sure how many of those ideas will actually turn into something.  Guess we will have to wait and see about some of them.  Some are definitely going to happen.

Thank you all for coming by today, sorry I can’t mention everyone by name.  It would be a long list indeed.  But I’m thankful for all of you who joined in today for our second coffee time.  And I look forward to seeing you all again!

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and God bless!

Steve and Muffin.
