Two Years in a Row

I can't believe I made this mistake once again: not buying enough Brach's candy corn at Halloween to decorate my Thanksgiving table with. Stores get rid of it all before Thanksgiving, and it's not worth it to buy other types of candy corn!

81 degrees

Doesn't quite feel like fall.

Welcome to the Season

I am so excited. Here are a couple recipes that are first on my list of what to try this year:

Pumpkin Cornbread

Pumpkin Pie Coffee Cake

Ah! The First of the Season

Not Yet, My Friend!

The other day I was talking to someone about how it had been a busy summer so far and they said, "Well, it's almost over anyway." Heck, no! I'm not buying that! I'm living this summer for all it's worth. You can tell me it's almost over at the end of September--k?

I Just Want to Share

That's it's summer, noon, and only 72 degrees. Oh blessed relief.

A Cold, Wet Spring and a Basement With No Bathroom Fan

Means trouble in the form of a lot of mildew. Eew. Yuck. Tilex mildew spray has been my best friend, but, seriously, I never want to live anywhere without a bathroom fan. Ever. Again. And, summer, please come to stay soon!

When You Live in a Basement

During the spring you have to put on a sweatshirt when you come home.

My Weather Report Once Looked Like This:

Kind of scary, huh?

Allergies

Stink.
