Hello friends and welcome to November! Ah, the month of raking leaves, Thanksgiving, Christmas crafting and falling back. Well, in the US anyway, where daylight savings time ended at 2am, so we all had an extra hour of shuteye. Which is great, since I think I'm still behind from the hour I lost in March. Of course, that also means it gets dark an hour earlier each night. And that's not so good.
Halloween is only one day behind us, but when I look around online, it's apparently Christmas! Hold on, I say. Aren't we forgetting another important holiday? I mean doesn't Tom Turkey deserve even a little attention? I certainly think so. So in honor of all things Thanksgiving , today I'm going to set a table and share a craft.
Boo! Did I scare you? Well, I hope not. I mean it is that time of year for all things spooky , but that's not my jam. Halloween has never been my favorite . I'm much more of a Christmas carol kind of girl than a Monster Mash fan. However.
It's time for comfort food, so I made a hearty chicken pot pie using frozen pie crusts and without peas. It only took me 10 minutes to prep and it was delicious. If I can make it, so can you. Here's the recipe. My mom was amazing cook. I know a lot of kids say that, but truly. The woman had a gift. Everything she made was fantastic and I have to say, that's one of the things I miss most about our time together. Sitting across the table from one another, sharing our day, devouring one of her delicious meals...
When I was a little girl, candles were only lit on special occasions. They illuminated our holiday tables, celebration dinners and birthday cakes. Days and nights, when the house was filled with guests and good times. While the birthday candles were extinguished with wishes and big breaths, the tapers usually burned themselves out, after a long evening of laughter, conversation and family. Needless to say, the warmth they cast, extended far beyond the wick.
Good October Morning, Friends! I hope you are all doing well on this brisk Saturday morning. Well, brisk in my neck of the woods, anyway. Today, we welcome a new month. Calendar and Artist Shop Information Yes, I know I'm a bit behind, but it's been a busy two weeks. I'm finally getting a chance to catch my breath.
OK, so I have a confession to make and I hope you don’t judge me too harshly. You see, this weekend I started playing with Christmas decor. I know, I know for the last 10 years I’ve said it over and over again. No Christmas decorations until after the last Thanksgiving plate has been cleared away. This post is sponsored by King Of Christmas , all opinion are my very own. Whoops. Well, it's not my fault.
