Just putting a fresh pot of coffee over the fire for this fine sunny Sunday, as the temp. dips down to 27F! Nice fire, Sharon. Looks like you nightbirds kept it going so that I only need to add a log or two.
Lou, you're too kind with your words on my drawing, but you did hit the soft spot in my heart for the tree of my homeland, the buckeye. I just love your crafting ideas. I'm too busy with coursework right now to do any fun stuff, but I think I might put some lights outdoors to put us in the holiday spirit.
Carol, I can just picture your anxiousness to get on down to Florida in mid-winter. You have a good trip, and don't you or Georgia do any slidin' into the sunshine state. Best behavior now, ya hear? (Oh, M- was a pirate of the Caribbean type for Halloween, and H- was a wizard. Very cute. What was your costume for trick-or-treating this year?
)
Bread pudding, Sharon? Bring it on! And a little of the cornbread and bean soup for my lunch today too. It's the perfect time of year. Georgia, have you tried King Arthur's recipe for the maple cornbread? It's my favorite. But probably won't equal your southern cornbread, which is absolutely dee-lish!
Pouring coffee now.... who's got a cup out?
Off to check out Janet's pics of Yosemite...
