Well, HELLO NOVEMBER....

This year is disappearing faster and faster.. I was just getting

my head into fall.. and here we are knocking on winter.

I still have baskets with blooming flowers.. and roses

who are still giving me buds and blossoms...

but I have the feeling that this week will be the end

of them all.. with reports of 32 to 30  for early am

temps.  Have the pots up close to the deck and they

have flowers doing great.. the deck pretty well

protects them..  But those too shall be history this

weeks as well.

Started doing my baking for Christmas gifts.. have

a few other things to do, and I should be ready...

Next rainy day will be large pans of zucchini bread

and the fruitcake cookies.. and for those who don't

like fruitcakes.. these are good as they don't taste

like them.. it is because they do have dried fruit in

them... that they got the name..

Guess I am hoping that winter will go as fast as the

rest of the year has gone..   Thanksgiving will be

here soon.. (3 weeks) and then Christmas will gallop

in... But then we have the dragging of January and

February.

And lots of rainy days between snow. Which I hope

holds off until January.
