These October Days...

Good Evening my dears.. 

How are you all doing? 

Here we are the last day of October.. 

Much cooler here in New Brunswick then it has been.. 

There was a couple of huge frosts this week but tonight there is a wind warning and rain for tomorrow.. 

Funny... \

I was craving a good rainstorm.. grin.. 

Are you girls keeping busy these days?  

The other morning we headed out early for the old farm.. 

What a beautiful day it was, too.. 

Terry had rented a bush cutter and I grabbed a bag of apples to fill my day.. smile.. 

Then some lovely company showed up.. 

He helped Terry all day as us girls made dinner and chatted .. 

And laughed .. 

This dear girl is a hoot and it was a blessed day for sure.. 

The Honey Crisps Apples are in and are now dried and put away for some tasty snacks.. 

They are so good.. 

Drying more from our old apple trees to make some of the apple wreaths for Christmas gifts.. 

So easy to do.. 

I shared it with you before but all you do is thread a wire through and then tie a bow.. 

Also, for winter potpourri HERE and basket liners .. 

The Maple Apple Jam is all finished, too.. 

The recipe is HERE..

I cut the sugar back by a cup and the syrup by half a cup.. 

Still very sweet but delicious on toast or ice cream.. 

I did a little experiment this week.. 

Tried a homemade stew from meat that we had not ate before and to be honest we will not try again.. 

I know there are folks who eat goat and love it but it is not to our liking .. 

Have you ever tried it? 

Oh well... 

I love trying new foods but that just did not turn out.. grin.. 

We took a drive up to the windmills on Monday, too.. 

They sure are awesome.. 

Thank you so much for taking time to drop by and visiting.. 

Loved having you all.. 

Just before I leave though I would like to send out a prayer request.. 

Our son's best friend has a dear daughter who turns 16 tomorrow.. 

This week they took her to the IWK Hospital in Halifax as the doctors believe that she has Lymphoma.. 

Such a dreadful thing but we know that God is able.. 

He is our Healer and we know personally that cancer is not a hindrance to our God.. 

A lot of you know that in 1998 I was healed of breast cancer.. 

We know that He still heals... 

Even today.. 

Please remember Chelsea in your prayers.. 

Thank you dear girls.. 

You are the best.. 

Hugs..
