Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving... Not just good food, but amazing friends too! There is a new baby in our periferal world, and the kids just LOVE  him!!!  











Hope you all had a wonderful holiday as well!

                                       Cheers!

P.S.

 From a post a few years ago, this is my go to cranberry sauce:
Quite tart, but super tasty, this is the cranberry sauce I made for tonight's feast.

Combine in a pot and simmer over medium heat until
cranberries are soft (about 10-12 minutes).

24 oz fresh cranberries washed and picked over
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup brandy
1/4 cup marmalade
1/4 teaspoon orange extract
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

November colors

A real November day. 

I wish I could do justice to all the golden orange leaves! 
 I made butter cakes for the kids school's annual craft fair. 
 With a lemon sugar glaze.
 Its been cold enough that our uncarved pumpkins are still sitting pretty.

Happy Autumn EVERYONE!!!
