Boring Weekend Recap

The big paper one is from the friends we gifted our old grill to.  The Mr and I cracked up at the hot dog 'thanks' on what is an exact image of the grill along with a lovely note from the Mrs of the couple thanking us profusely as they didn't have money to replace their grill that was falling apart.  The other is from my friend I've known since 1988 and he doesn't send out cards much so this was a surprise.  It was him telling us how lucky he is to have us a friends and how much we mean to him and he thought we should know.  It made me cry for sure (and then of course check in to make sure he was okay.  He is.)  Obviously any kind of communication is appreciated but t...

Fall Edition: What I'm Reading This Week

We are most certainly in the throes of Fall, y'all!  If you haven't gotten out to see peak colors in your area or a short distance away, hop in the car, take in the beauty.  

Well, do it after you check out...

12 Cozy Fall Decorating Ideas  (Love 'em!)

14 Fall Mason Jar Crafts  (Mason jar...so ubiquitous but so darn cute)

Fall Recipes from Cooking Light  (Yum!)

5 spots to see Michigan's rich fall colors  (Oh Traverse City how I miss you!)

The New Guidelines for Canning  (I need to stop being so afraid to can things)

6 Fat-Burning Foods For Fall and Winter   (Burn baby burn!)

We're road tripping for a dual birthday trip.  (The Mr gets an awesome mid-October birthday whilst I get stuck with the birthday that means crowds and heat.  I'm glomming onto his this year for my milestone birthday)  So lots of driving, lots of purties and probably some regional indulgences we'll have to work off later.

Anything fun on tap for this weekend?

    I might be getting another cat this weekend. I say might only because I'm not sure any of the cats at the shelter will be a good match to my current cat, Eugene, who lost his dear cat mate (Olive) about a month ago. Rest in peace, Ollie girl. I hope the new cat is half as wonderful as you were.

    I am so excited to be going to opening night for hockey. I have my cowbell all ready to go. =o) I'm such a homer, but after the week I've had, it'll feel good to be able to yell along with everybody else and vent some steam. Hope you have a great birthday road trip!!!
