What I'm Reading This Week #35

Howdy do and happy last Friday of August!  I hope you had a good week and if your weather was like ours, it was FINALLY under 93 degrees.  Don't get me wrong, I know sweater weather isn't here but it was nice to not have the AC working overtime (set to 76) starting at 11am every day!   It was nice to not walk out to water the garden and walk into a wall of humidity so I will take what I can get.    Speaking of which: With this 3" San Marzano , I shall be able to make enough sauce to cover 7.3 spaghetti noodles. 😒 Now let's get to: How to Stock Your Pantry for Quick & Easy Meals in Minutes   (Ooh, I need to crockpot some black beans for some sweet potato black bean burritos.)

Hump Day Poll: Fall Bucket List



This is about the time the leaves finally change in our area, and the day you notice them is the day a huge windy rain comes in and blows them all off of the trees.  Is it just me or does Fall seem shorter in terms of the amount of color you get?

Anyhoo...we've got one more week in October to fit in those bucket list items before the only leaves left are the ones crunching underfoot and the Christmas music starts blaring.  (Don't shoot the messenger.)

I plan to squeeze in some walks with my honey, maybe a night by a firepit, and I REALLY want a caramel apple this year.  It's probably been over a decade since I've had one and the craving has been strong since summer, so what better time of year to indulge to hold me for the next 10 years?

What's left on your Fall bucket list?

    I'm not able to do some of the things I thought I'd get to this fall, but I'm at peace with it now. The one thing I want to do is go the apple orchard, which I plan on doing Monday. It'll only be 50 degrees, which will be lovely to enjoy a hot chocolate after I do some perusing and shopping. They have an indoor cellar with food and hot chocolate/coffee, but I think I want to sit out on the picnic tables so I can look out at the pumpkin patch and the entire area that's all country. I have my new chiminea that the hubs gave me for our anniversary, but I don't know that I'll set that up outside or not this year because it went from warm to windy and pretty cold very quickly. Still have to think about that. The annoying thing we have right now is when it does get warm and sunny, the wasps are out in full force and my poor girl got stung on the paw over the weekend. Little jerks.
