Good morning. I cannot believe we have just had another catastrophic hurricane, my heart goes out to all those who are in the path. My thoughts and prayers are will all affected.

| Harvest Apple Pie. Delicious. |
My mind is firmly ensconced in Fall and I am dreaming of the pies I am going to bake, my warm cashmere sweaters, and all of the adventures I am going to have. The weather has other ideas and I am still enjoying the steamy hot weather, tall glasses of lemonade and walks at the beach instead of among the falling leaves.
I made a bucket list so that the minute the weather turns I will be ready to enjoy all of my favorite Fall activities.
1. Go to an apple orchard and then go home and make something delicious with them.
2. Go to a football game.
3. Have a bonfire and make s’mores..
4. Go to a pumpkin patch.
5. Expand my horizons and make at least 5 new chili recipes from my new favorite cookbook..

-especially like your thought on Black Friday!!
A walk in the woods sounds wonderful! And browned butter chocolate chip cookies are a must try.
I'm planning on taking in some fall colours on the weekend.
I want to take a drive and take photos of the fall foliage once we have some. Most of the tree leaves still look green to me.
