Happy Veteran's Day to everyone who served our country. My husband received such a nice card yesterday from the family of Christopher's girlfriend... a Thank You card for serving our country. Hubby was in the Viet Nam war before we met.
It still smells like autumn here! I used to enjoy walking the trails at a local park on days like this, especially when we were homeschooling in the younger years. Instead, today I will be taking advantage of the Indian Summer warmth to work in the garage awhile... just a little at a time. :)
All this week we have had places to go, appointments to keep, and people to see. So it is actually nice to have a day to slowly work on organization projects. Especially those (like the yard and garage) which will be more difficult when the weather turns colder.
Speaking of cold weather, Stephanie has posted two recipes on her blog that I have been
The lemon-blueberry scones were the star of our tea time together, she made them without blueberries since the berries had become quite expensive... and served them with Devonshire cream (or double cream) and lemon curd. Oh, my... they were the best scones I have every tasted. Her mother-in-law loves these scones, too. These two recipes can be found... here.
Speaking of my daughter, she ordered our Christmas present yesterday and since I had to decide the type and color and other important details, I know what it is (her dad does not). However, I have been given firm orders that I cannot open it until Christmas. I think that is torture... pure and simple torture. Sigh... :-(
