Fall Things

Please excuse this brief missive.   I have been very busy enjoying fall things.

Hope everyone has a blessed week.

Thanksgiving

Pumpkin Roll

Wishing everyone who will be celebrating Thursday a very Happy Thanksgiving.

Preparations are underway at my home.

The turkey is thawing in the refrigerator.

Favorite recipes are gathered and the menu is planned.   Now all that remains to be done is the cooking and setting of the table.    No perhaps there is something more...remembering all the reasons one has to give thanks.   My list is long - how about yours?

     "Come let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.   Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song."   Psalm 95:1-2 (NIV)      


Have a blessed Thanksgiving and a great end to November.    Hope to see you in December!  

Hugs Debbie

October's Finish

The ground is covered with October's finish.   Most of the leaves have fallen.   Bare limbs and branches have shed their cloaks of color.

They will remain naked waiting for spring's return.    There is a definite chill in the air.

The sun is setting much earlier now.

Seasons come and go.   Each one brings its own special gifts.

Time to cozy up with a crunchy apple, a great novel, and a warm  quilt.    Soon the smell of a wood fire will fill the house with a lovely scent.

Hot Cider bubbling on the stove with a cinnamon stick  invites one to slow down and savor this quieter time of the year.


Before we know it Thanksgiving will be here.  



 

 
 In the meantime I am wishing everyone a delightful October finish.    God Bless!

Wondrous

October brings such wondrous gifts...skies of blue

Vibrant colors everywhere...

Decorations that make one smile....

Crisp tasty apples...

and sweet moments to look up.










 

 Hope October is bringing you some of these lovely gifts.   Have a wondrous day!
