Good Morning and how are you today?
We are currently discussing if my coffee and I want to participate in this day.
Let’s go!
It’s safe to say, I am not the cat, I am, however, the slow starter but here we are at the…
Dog stick library - He once was a wolf. Now he is a golden boy with a stick library.
…meeting up with a friend and that’s okay, he is still a wolf at heart. Just try and take that stick away from him later. You will have a wrestling match on your hands.

Fun with Food!
And here is my imaginary house.
Just kidding, here it is…
Sorry, I can’t help myself. Here it is…
Isn’t it a beauty? Beautiful at night too.
Back to a couple of recipes as I had not quite finished with food. A slow cooker Turkey Breast recipe…and once again I haven’t tried any of these recipes I share. It will be an adventure to me as well as to you. I will have a practice run before Thanksgiving.
Slow Cooker Turkey Breast
Ingredients: 1 (4 to 6 pound) turkey breast - 3 tablespoons olive oil
or melted butter - 1 tablespoon garlic powder - 1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika - 1 teaspoon dried thyme - salt and pepper to taste
1 cup chicken broth. Instructions: 1. Pat turkey breast dry and rub with
olive oil or butter. 2. Mix garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, thyme,
salt and pepper. Rub all over the turkey. 3. Place the turkey breast in
slow cooker, pour chicken broth around (NOT ON) the meat. 4. Cover
and cook on LOW for 6 to 7 hours, or until internal temperature reaches
165 degrees F. 5. Optional: broil for 3 to 5 minutes to crisp up the skin
before serving. 6. Slice and serve with juices from the slow cooker.
For dessert.
Knott’s Berry Farm Cookies - “Thumbprint Cookies”, Buena Park, California.
Ingredients: 1/2 cup butter, softened - 1/3 cup sugar - 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup bread flour OR all-purpose flour works just as well. Bread flour will just make
your cookies more chewy 1/4 cup raspberry jam or other jam to your liking.
Instructions: 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 2. Combine butter, sugar, almond
extract and flour in mixer bowl. 3. Mix until well blended and forms a ball. (Mine
was kind of dry and crumbly, so I added about 2 tablespoons of milk.) 4. Roll into
3/4 inch balls and place on ungreased cookie sheet. 5. Make an indentation on top of
each cookie and fill with 1/2 teaspoon of jam. 6. Bake 9 minutes. 7. Let cool and enjoy.
A few wise words.

change your smile.

For those who need one and for those who don’t think they do.
Here’s a hug for the day. Carry it with you wherever you go.
Sometimes we forget to thank the people who make our lives better just by
being in it, so…thank you!
and always remember
You are worthy and you are loved!
Thanks for visiting and have
a wonderful day!
Peace and...
(With thanks to Pinterest for today's inspiration.)
