Autumn Warmth

October is here already! Our weather has been so strange lately, that it's hard to tell what season it is. However, the colors speak for themselves. Today, the air is crisp, once again. So far, I've only put up a few decorations for Fall. However, in a few weeks, I'll get out my Halloween stash. I try not to decorate too soon, because mid October tends to be stormy and it stretches out my cobwebbing. I try to decorate around Columbus day weekend, or after.

I have been indulging in some of my fall traditions. A few weekends ago, I made root soup! It's soooo yummy. I add as many root vegetables and herbs as I can, along with bratwurst. I even used some turnip from the garden.

Also, I made bread pudding with apples and craisins! These sorts of foods tend to warm me up and really are enjoyed best in the Fall.

Today, I made mincemeat bars and a potato and meatball soup in the crock pot . I really love this time of year for crock pot cooking, especially during the busy week. Once again, I'm enjoying cozy food.

I am also starting a new craft for myself and my sisters, whom I'll be visiting next weekend. I hope to finish the craft by the time I go away. I think that if I work on the project a little at a time in the afternoons, I should be able to finish them with ease. I hope to post the craft when I return later that week. Until then~Toodahloo!
