Happy Fall Y'All

Doesn't this just make you feel like Fall is in the air? 
pumpkins galore.
family gatherings.
cool mornings.
apple cider.
better yet...apple cider donuts.
sweater weather.
wool blankets.
football.  go broncos!
harvest time.
bountiful blessings.

A Special Birthday Salute

A memorable day to honor so many. Grateful to have a little boy who has no clue what this day is all about.  He brings such joy to so many and while we won't forget, we are blessed to celebrate life every September 11th.  Happy Birthday Hendrix!

Eat Dessert First

I have been known to make a dessert or two now and then
and this PIE is so yummy and so easy. 
 
LEMONADE PIE
  • 8 oz Cool Whip
  • 6 oz Lemonade Concentrate (thawed)
  • 14 oz Can of Sweetened Condensed Milk
  • 1 Prepared Graham Cracker Crust
Mix well and pour into Graham Cracker Crust
Chill at for 1 hour (I like to make a day ahead and chill overnight)
 

I almost forgot to take a snapshot.  So here is what's left of the Lemonade Pie.
But not for long....
Got to love this quote I found on Pinterest!

Front Porch

Summer flowers are still going strong...
but I'm ready to change to pumpkins. 
 
Seeing so many sunflowers around the neighborhood and must plant my own next year.
 

Perfect Pears

My friend Marie lives the simple live in the country, but living on a
working farm keeps her busy and sometimes she works way too hard. 
This week it was pears, pears and more pears. 
Today she stopped by to share her harvest with me, and 
I in turn, shared pears with my Bunco peeps too. Yummo!
On the hunt for a few recipes from Pinterest and will share as I go.
 
This is the first one I thought I would try.

Falling for Autumn

The Pacific Northwest is gearing up for fall with cool mornings and hot days.
Can you feel the change in the air? 
Always fun to change it up a bit at home too.
