Side View on Down... 

O.K. So today (the 29th of October) we had our 

very first snowfall last night. And here it is for you all! 

I thought that it looked great! What is it about 

snow that invigorates so? BUT~~~~my husband 

just told me that they are predicting 80 MPH winds 

for us tonight...WHAT? Surely~~~~you jest. I'll let 

you know what that's like. Scraped the car and 

sent my daughter off to school but we are thinking 

at some point, they will cancel it. We just got most of 
our profuse leaves (and I do mean just piles and piles) 

raked up yesterday and Saturday.

3 Marvelous Fall Shots...

We (finally) took a ride out and about this past weekend. 

I was eager to get the top shot, one of my most favorite 

overlook 'long views' of the Appalachian mountains right 

off of the Blue Ridge Parkway...

How about those fall c-o-l-o-r-s (in the middle shot?!) 

And my question (of the day) for you is...what is 

odd about the bottom shot? 

Hoping all is well for my family and my friends.

A Heavenly Coffee Cake...

This is my husband's latest take on a recipe straight from the 

'cake place called heaven!' We have a lot of Kuri squash 

(and various squashes here, right now, in the High Country...) 

Accordingly, then, this is a Kuri squash  and homemade 

applesauce coffee cake with a BIG butter crumble 

and sugary glaze on the top! 

My...oh, my. 

Need I paste a smiley face??! 

(I should have taken a side view shot of the slice 

itself but I couldn't wait to eat it! 

...Sorry about that!)
