1. Have you actually thought about how close it is to Christmas? Even with seeing decorations out, I still had not paused to think. And I still refuse to think much about it. I want to wait till after Thanksgiving.
2. This kind of cornbread is one thing I crave every so often...I have been craving it this week, but have still not taken the time to make a pan. However, I did make a big pot of potato soup today and it is wonderful. I love soups of any kind, any time, but they are especially good once there is a chill to the air. How about it--do you like them any time or only after it has turned cold?
3. I think this is the first year I have ever missed being in the woods and seeing ginseng. I usually want to go just to see it and to take a fresh pic of it. It now has a season to dig it, but when I grew up, you could hunt it any time. Even then, our favorite time to hunt it was in the fall when it turned cold and had seeds to leave behind.
4. I don't know why, but the Amish fascinate me, do they you?
5. Don't you know that walking out into a yard with all that gold would cure about any sickness? Or at the least, make one forget it for a bit.
Linking to Tanya's Willy Nilly Friday 5....then it is back to get another bowl of potato soup!

Can we say front moving through?
We had wind last night...wind that howled and hunted for cracks to sweep through. Wind that blew leaves hither and yon. It really felt like winter was moving in. We had to run to Kroger this more, so as it was on the way, we ran through the strip pits. The pic below is as we passed through the area, and the above is as we left. In the above one the sun was just peeping out for a minute.
I am not sure I am ready for this...but I know I have no choice. I would not mind if I didn't have to get out in it except when I wanted to.

With us for Veteran's Day
Lorelei has tomorrow off in observance of Veteran's Day....she is here for the night and will spend tomorrow with us.
She said they had veterans visit their school today. When I was a kid, I had no comprehension of what our veterans had done for us. Not when I was her age. Not until I was a lot older. Anyway, she was not sure if there was a Marine there or not...that was the branch Roger was in.
I am so thankful for these brave men...and women. Who knows where we would be if not for them?
