I really love some of these pictures I find at Pinterest. The bear almost looks like he is thinking, "It's been one of those days!"
The Tufted Titmouse is looking as if it just asked us a question and is waiting for the answer.
I was trying to think of what I wanted for lunch. Gregg was out of the house for most of the day and I decided to fix myself a pork sandwich - yes, from the accidentally bought 8 lb. piece of pork! I put 2 ozs. on Italian bread, and a little coleslaw on the side. The dear man made the coleslaw earlier. Neither of us have had much success buying it at the store lately. It always seems too soupy, or maybe we are just super-picky. This homemade version was excellent and suited our taste perfectly. Another win for the dear man I told him. The rest of the pork is now in the freezer.
A couple of hours later I made this for a treat, a chocolate chip cookie for one, with a 1/4 cup of vanilla ice-cream on the top. It's a recipe I have made maybe only once since that first one. I added walnuts this time instead of pecans.
You can find it at this link if you think you would enjoy it. I took more photos, dressing my plate up for Fall. A little ‘busy’ perhaps but I liked it. This year I bought some decorative leaves for our Thanksgiving table, which I added to the plate. The placemats we have had for a couple of years. I got carried away with all the colors and made a little art with my ArtCard app.
But here’s the finished product, and it really was delicious.
I'm adding a little humor because I know we've all been there.
Sharing some of my favorite flowers. I will be buying them next week. I can't believe Thanksgiving is almost here!
This is a lovely poem and describes my feelings exactly. When we drove to the Shenandoah National Park the other day, we passed trees that were shedding their leaves in every neighborhood. They decorated the gardens beautifully, and some of the grass showing was still green, not dormant, a real pretty contrast to the red and gold fallen leaves. A lot of people will be busy raking over the next few days.
Wouldn’t this be a pretty table setting at Thanksgiving?
Interesting owl art. I like this. I love owls!
That's all for today's This and That. I hope there is something in here that you like.
