HomeKeepers Journal-August 24

I decided to participate in a meme called  “A HomeKeeper’s Journal” Please visit Sylvia at Christian HomeKeeper Network, we are discussing Fall today.  Fall is my favorite season of the year and one that I can’t wait to get here, every single year.

Autumn in my kitchen means ……. lots of baking both pies and breads, and  making soups.  I love making soups for those cool nights, they just say warmth.Lots of hot apple cider.  Also I will be planning our holiday get togethers and the menus.

Autumn in my home brings …….out all the fall decorations. It brings in the more subdue colors with the warm golds, browns, and reds. It brings out all the blankets for snuggling under while lounging around,whether reading or watching tv.

I bring Autumn indoors by ……..bringing nature indoors, branches, pinecones, leaves, and nuts are always displayed around the house.

A few favorite Autumn activities for my family are …….going to the harvest festivals, going to watch them make homemade apple butter over the open fire,visiting the local pumpkin patch to get our pumpkins and gourds for the season.

Two favorite Autumn recipes are …….my pumpkin cake, so moist and delicious, Deep Dish apple pie with chedder cheese slices on the side.

This Autumn I would like to ………entertain more, and share the many blessings that I have been given.  Show hospitality with a gift of grace, and maybe have a little treat for our guest to take home as a wonderful reminder of our time shared.

  4. Hi Cindy,
    You have just described my favorite season. I so enjoyed reading this. I hope you will share your fall decorations. I am looking forward to getting mine out real soon.
    Thanks for visiting and for leaving me such a sweet comment. I have my fingers crossed that my hydrangeas will do well. I got some great tips for growing them from the owner. She told me to not prune them that if I did they would not bloom the next year. Well, guess what, that is just exactly what I had been doing with the ones I had no luck with. LOL So from now on, no pruning. LOL. Enjoy you evening.
    Hugs,
    Sue

  5. I wish it was Autumn here. Not sure how many weeks I will have to wait for it, in the mean time I'll just enjoy reading blogs of those who live in a cooler climate ;-)
