Tuesday, Oct 20

It is a most glorious day. The weather is so gorgeous, it just feels great to be outdoors. I have forgot to tell you about the fall trees in our entry. Randy is always kidding me about how much I love the lights of the holidays. A few years back, he had the suggestion to go ahead and get the group of 3 trees out of the attic and decorate them for fall, with the beautiful red, orange and yellow garland and pumpkins and white lights with giant leaves on them. We loved it so much, we have continued the tradition of putting them up the first of Oct. So from the street and porch, you see lite trees which makes a most warm inviting welcome. It just allows me to have “lit trees” a little longer than just the Christmas Season. Today, I am making a chocolate chip pound cake for dinner and it is delicious. A great cake to have with a little cinnamon or vanilla ice cream alongside. So that will be the recipe today.
