Happy Halloween!

Hello!

Happy Friday!

Today I am working on cutting up and cooking up applesauce. So very many apples and I am looking for quick easy ways to use them. My crispers are full, my sink is full, and the bottom shelf of my refrigerator is full. Gotta use them up because we cant eat them that fast. 

YUM! I can't wait for all the applesauce recipes. Applesauce cake... applesauce muffins...

I love this time of year!

Have a great day!

Fun Fall Decor

Happy Fall!

Heading out today to get our big fluffy dog groomed. 

I have been battling with myself on the working issue. I currently sub at school when needed but as Winter rears its ugly head, I find that I would rather be home and making money here somehow. So I am now trying to make money with my blog. There is so much info on the web how to do this and its my new obsession. Surely if others do it, I can too. But finding the perfect balance of enjoying my little blog, but making some Grocery money in the process is the goal. In the meantime, I am enjoying Fall, taking more pictures, which I have gotten really bad at, and enjoying my girls since they seem to be growing way to fast. 

Have a wonderful fall day!

Monster Bark

Monster Bark!

Happy October 25th!

(I have to say this....) Only Two months till Christmas!

Ha Ha...

Sorry, I had to. I am so excited, Halloween is right around the corner. Kids are getting excited for dressing up. I am super glad my 12 year old still wants to dress up and go trick or treating with her family. I don't know how long that will happen and I feel like I am holding on with both hands, legs wrapped around her, fighting to keep her from growing up too fast. I know I can't stop it, but I will slow it down. Lol. 

One of the ways that seems to work is by cooking and crafting for the Holidays as much as I can. 

Yesterday we made Monster bark. So easy and so much fun. The girls loved it. 

Here is the recipe:

Melt two bags semi sweet chocolate chips in Microwave, 

line a cookie sheet with wax paper, 

spread chocolate in thin layer on sheet, 

and sprinkle whatever fun candy you can find on the layer.

Refrigerate for a few hours, remove and break into pieces. Store in fridge for snacking later.

YUM!!!

Have a wonderful day!

Fall Apple Picking

Hello October!

Well... October 4th.

This weekend we were invited over by our neighbors for some apple picking, pumpkin picking and they also threw in some onions. It is always so much fun. I am looking forward to really enjoying and immersing myself in everything Fall!

Bring it on!

Have a wonderful Day!
