And the Number Climbs…
I’m well over 550 unread items in my RSS reader. The end of the month is always a really busy one as I have regular contract work at that time. Add to it reaching critical points on several Designedly, Kristi items on top of it and I’m feeling spread a tad thin. So many things on the to do list I almost don’t know where to start.
In order to get the things done I *want* to get done I’m keeping extremely odd hours, hence the time stamp on this post that is not being auto published. That leaves little energy for kitchen adventures, let alone kitchen adventures with the camera (don’t worry, I’ve shot nearly 4 Gb of photos over the past three days so the camera is getting love). As a bonus, the off schedule allows me hours of work that are not interrupted regularly with political phone calls and knocks on the door as standard hours are.
In case you haven’t been around for a while or haven’t perused my archives, I thought I’d link to a few season appropriate recipes I’ve shared in previous years for your Wednesday gastronomical pleasure.
- Shown at the top of this post are my Pumpkin Scones with Honey Cinnamon Composite Butter, a wonderful fika treat for autumn.
- Along similar lines are my Autumn Scones (with an additional variation or two).
- For more pumpkin goodness there is Pumpkin Molasses Muffins.
- Apples are abundant at the farmer’s market right now so it is perfect for my Apple Raspberry Crisp.
- And one of my all time autumn favorites - Spiced Pecans! Yum! I may just have to make time to cook up a batch *very* soon.
As a bonus, you get to see how far my photography has come over the years… Wow, was I in need of improvement!
To those I owe e-mail, I hope to resurface by the weekend, but I’m often fairly unplugged then as a means of setting a few boundaries. So unless it is very time sensitive, I’ll probably not get back to you until early next week. I’m really looking forward to resurfacing, I’m missing you all and hope you are having a great week!
