Outside My Window...

I am thinking...
It is a good thing I haven't gotten all of the summer clothes put away yet.
From the learning rooms...
Isabelle is now in week 5 of 4th grade and she has a few tests to take this week. I am so impressed with how much Latin she has already learned this year. Alex and Olivia will be making some fall crafts as part of their schooling this week.

I am thankful for...
The wonderful weekend our family just had. It is so nice to be able to revel in such simple pleasures. We went to a rummage sale on Saturday and I was able to get a bag of clothes for myself (4 outfits in all) for just $2!

From the kitchen...
There are sausage, egg & cheese biscuits in the oven for breakfast. I am also going to make some apple muffins and apple leather today. Dinner will be Polish sausage & cabbage soup. I'll use some of the cabbage to make vegetarian stuffed cabbage to put in the freezer.

We are not going anywhere today! It was a busy weekend so it will feel good to stay home and get caught up.

One of my favorite things...
The smells of a fall kitchen...apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, soups.

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week:
Library books need to be taken back on Tuesday. I need to de-clutter my computer desk. I need to organize the kids clothes and find the bag of hand-me-down shoes from our attic.

At the cider mill - drinking cider slushies and eating fresh, hot cider donuts.

I enjoyed your day book. We went to the apple orchard today. I love autumn.
I like all of the Fall smells from your kitchen and the trip to the orchard sounds like fun.

Hot cider donuts!?! Oh, those sound good!
It never fails that when you think it is going to stay a certain type of weather and put up clothes from the previous season. There is a day that you have to pull something out. LOL! :D
Great deal on the clothes!
Your meals for today are making me hungry!
Those donuts sound delish! Do you have a recipe?! :D
I never heard of apple cider donuts but they sound wonderful! Enjoy your day at home. [I love it when I can stay home.]
I put most of our summer clothes away already! Thankfully I had kept out a couple pairs of shorts and several short sleeves for this past weekend! :)
Good job at the garage sale! :)
Cute pic! :)
Cute photo! I've never tried cider slushie...might have to!

Fresh, hot cider donuts???? Oh, I can smell and taste them from here!

Great bargains! We went to a huge annual rummage sale last week. We found some good deals there.
I love the smells of a fall kitchen, too.
