Giving Thanks..

Another week half-way through. Don't you love a long weekend? My kids have "special" lunches at school this week on Thursday and Friday so only 2 lunches  to make this week-yeah!
yes it really does take that little to make me happy...
Thought I would share a few pics from the weekend. It was cold! We did manage to squeeze in our annual apple picking at Willis fruit farm. We picked three big baskets. Mainly gala,snow and empire. I love Macs but they get too mushy if you are storing them. I can't wait to turn some of them into pie,crumble and applesauce. For now we have all been eating them like crazy!

YUM

Fruits of our labour

So  easy to pick this year..all that rain this summer??

Tiny nest in the apple tree!

Set for dinner.

Bought from a bakery I have to admit!

 Yesterday I thought I even felt a bit of snow. Since we are Canadian and celebrate Thanksgiving early in October I always hold off on the full blown Halloween decor until after turkey! I have grabbed some great deals this year which I will share with you tomorrow. We are having a little Halloween party here for #3 and we are trying to cook up some ideas-wow there are some creative gals out there!  What is your favourite Halloween  craft/baking/party idea?? 

My cooking inspiration this year.turkey was amazing I'll share the recipe soon!

Tonight i am excited to curl up and watch my new favourite show--King of Crowns on TLC. I just love that show, LOVE Cyrus. Makes me laugh and fascinates me. LOVE all those southern gals! What's your guilty TV pleasure??
