We know it is fall when it is time for our annual, family, trip to the pumpkin patch! Joe's Farm here we come!
Every year Papa always buys the best pumpkin in the patch for Janelle.
We search and thump and knock on them until we find the perfect pumpkin.
This year Janelle and I rode the tractor while the rest of the crew had the punkin weighed.
Nana bought some corn on the cob and zucchini from the market, and Daddy wheeled the pumpkin to the car.
I really really love the winter months, I suppose it is because I do the snow dance ... yes I really do! I just love the snow, which is only another reason why I really know that I am my Mom's daughter. Yes we check our cold temp nights with each other ... they are always just a few degrees cooler than we are for some reason.
Today I got into the full swing of things with my cooking ... really I should have posted some of our fall dishes. Something got into me and I made my favorite fall Shepherds Pie recipe, which is so stinkin' easy it is kind of cheating ... well maybe not, I will take full credit of making it. I also tossed a sour dough bread mix in the bread maker ... and to top things off I made my favorite Pampered Chef Apple Crisp ... minus the cranberries. YES ... all in one day! My husband wasn't quite over bragging about my home made stuffed peppers from last night, so I really have him pretty impressed with my cooking tonight.
I have to say that I am hoping this will be a wonderful fall for everyone. I for one really enjoy the chilly days, crockpots, casseroles, baking, stamping, and crafting ... and I do happen to get a bug now and then and whip out my knitting needles! It is a toss up between craftin' or just taking a hot tub, sportin' the jammies and fuzzy socks early and enjoying a good movie and my family!
Welcome fall! :)
