A beautiful Fall day

 It's been a beautiful fall day! The leaves are changing, temperature is perfect and we have been outside since this morning. Bill is roasting us some hotdogs, can't wait I'm hungry!

 

Super moon

 Good morning everyone! The moon is still shining brightly as the sun is rising. Have a great Friday!

 

My Halloween mantle

 

A little witchy

 

 Look at this adorable little witch! I just had to make a frame for her!

 

 This is how lazy I am...a $2 plastic pumpkin and a $3.50 strobe light = Jack-o-lantern!

Red Hat Ladies Halloween party

 Red Hat ladies Halloween party today! Great fun, as always!

 

More Halloween potion bottles

 This will be the last of my Halloween creations.(I think I ). I made around 20 potion bottles and 6 spell books this year. Nearly everything has sold, which makes me so happy, not because of the money, but that someone liked something I made from recycled bottles and books well enough that they wanted it in their home. It gives me a lot of joy. Have a great day everyone!

 

Aurora Borialas

 We saw the northern lights tonight, too dim to get photos, but still very exciting and beautiful!

Halloween decor '24 and new steampunk item

 I started decorating today, plus I made more potion bottles since all but one has been sold. The spell books sold too, need to get started on them next. I don't mind though, it's my favorite time of the year!

 

 The International Space Station just flew over, always exciting to see!

Blueberry muffins

 Bill wanted sausage and eggs for breakfast, that is our usual meal, but I wanted blueberry muffins, so we compromised, I made both! I just had a warm muffin with butter and a hot cup of coffee! Heaven!

 

Breakfast at Kristy's Kate

 Breakfast at Kristy's Kafe this morning at Country Creek Treasures! I'm having a chat with mt friend, Elizabeth. Look at this warm and yummy raspberry Danish! I took some biscuits and gravy home to Bill, also delicious!

 

Jailhouse Rock cake

 Jailhouse Rock cake, aka Elvis Presley cake aka pineapple poke cake....there's a layer of pineapple under the frosting and candied walnuts on top. The story is that Elvis would ask his grandma to make this cake, it was was his favorite! Whether this story is true or not, it sure is delicious!

 

New steampunk crafts

 

Thanks to my Steampunk people for buying my crafts and keeping me busy! I finished these two this morning. Edgar Allen Poe, anyone? The other one is a mirror.

Also, found this vintage photo of two children with very creepy pumpkin heads, so needed to add that to my Halloween decorations and was a good way to use a broken frame. Everyone stay cool! It's a hot, humid day here in Kinmundy town!

 

 

Ladies of '67 lunch

 Had lunch with some of the ladies of '67 today! Jenny Holsapple, glad we got to see you again before you go back to Florida.  We always have such a great time! No photo, you've seen us all before! (Actually just forgot) Enjoyed seeing everyone!

 Such a perfect evening, but time to go in. Hope you have all had a good day!

 

Hocus Pocus

 

Kristy's Kafe debut

 Had such a fun evening with my teamembers tonight at Country Creek Treasures. Kristy's Kafe (located inside Country Creek Treasures)served a delicious meal showcasing some of her menu items from her upcoming opening day, September 24th. I was too busy enjoying myself to take photos, but here is one dessert from tonight, salted caramel chocolate cake. We also had lemon chicken, browned butter garlic real mashed potatoes, salad, a delicious Asian soup, crescent rolls with strawberry butter, coconut cake and a banana cheese cake. All was delicious! Exciting times at our little shop!

 

World Color Press Reunion

 24th reunion for World Color Press was last night. Some came and left before I took any photos and our group was much smaller than usual. As always, it was so nice to see our friends and co-workers again. There are always stories and lots of laughter. So many have passed now and we remembered them as well. Through tornadoes, snowstorms, summer heat, dramas, company dinners, dances, parties and Halloween antics, your co-workers become your family. We still got our magazines printed and shipped. Good times with good people!
