HAPPY THANKSGIVING


       Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. 

It was a quiet one for me. Not many gatherings for me anymore. I am very thankful for my friends and family who are there for me. I cook what I want for myself and am happy not to have a whole lot of leftovers. 

I found a great little recipe this year for pumpkin pie in a cup! You make it in the microwave!  It's just enough to satisfy your taste for pie.

 It was delicious with cookies in the bottom of the cup or not. 

It's snowing here today, as I enter this blog. Winter has finally shown up. I am hunting my scarves and hats. 🤔 Hunting because I forgot exactly where they are. Guess no going out until I find them 😉😁

STAY WARM AND WELL!!

OCTOBER

 Cold and rainy,the leaves in our part of the state are just barely changing. It seems like our September was so warm it went too quickly. Not a big fan of 80 and then 40 but we have that too. Just a weird year I guess. Have not seen any woolly worms this year but I heard we will have a milder winter in Michigan. Storms that dump snow and then go and melt away.

So much for the weather.  Don't know about you,but I hate to even turn on the tv in the mornings now. The news with wars and shootings and our government debacle is depressing. I am watching more old shows and movies than ever. In the fifties and sixties shows were great and very entertaining. I actually find myself laughing out loud. 😀

Had trouble here with our water and boiler. We had no heat and it down in the 30's at night. Everyone complaining. Then we had no water for 24 hours and maintenance didn't answer the emergency number. Glad it wasn't life threatening we would have had to call the fire department. I've had three flooded floors in less than 10 yrs! I went out and bought a small wet vacuum. Can't wait on maintenance, they are proven not that fast or reliable. Learned to have plan B back up just in case!😉 

Hope you have a
