What I'm Reading This Week #34
Hello you sassy beast! Ready for another flip flappin' fantastic weekend? Yes indeedy, Ally Sheedy. It's been a week of working ahead for me as I try to work on ideas for holiday posts. I know, no one is ready for Christmas but spit balling stuff is actually getting me excited for the season. I like to try to give myself the month of December off from writing new posts (except updating weekly happenings) so all I have to do is respond if needed. It lets me take a little mental break during the holidays to try to enjoy what I can then hop back into the new year hopefully rested and ready to roll. We did book our 30th anniversary trip, which is the same one we had to cancel this year and of course got travel insurance. It's just nice to have something to hopefully look forward to and it makes you go "where the heck did 4 1/2 years go?" because it seems like just yesterday we were celebrating our 25th. Do people even celebrate their 30t...
Long before pumpkin spice was a movement I loved pumpkin cookies. Then you made chocolate chip pumpkin brookies and I am hooked. When can I get more? :-)
ReplyDeleteWarm soups with buttered toast! I also love a good roasted veggie tray :)
ReplyDeleteI'll put in a 2nd vote for warm soup: tomato, butternut squash, roasted corn. Yum!
ReplyDeleteThere's only one place I like for apple cider donuts, so that's first on my list. Vegetable beef soup, banana bread, pumpkin bread, and cranberry bread are a must too.
ReplyDeleteThat Cathy cartoon is pretty much spot on.
ReplyDeletePotato soup and chili are two of my fall/winter favorites. I love grilled cheese, but since I have it so often on summer break I think of it as more of a summer food than a fall food.
I'm a fan of pumpkin spice, but they have taken it way too far. When I saw "pumpkin spice ham" at the deli last year I was done.
