Baking Madness, or it the Fall air? ;)

I don't know about you all out there, but I think I've been infested with a Baking bug! I can't seem to stop! Pumpkin doughnuts, breads, yeast rolls (prize winning yeast rolls! ;) ), cookies, and other sweets! I don't know about you, and if you love baking, but one thing about myself, is thatb I LOVE IT. Don't get me wrong, there are time where I REALLYYYYYYYY don't want to make that bread, or those cookies, but that's usually because I don't feel in a mood to eat them, let alone make them. haha =D

 

I'm looking forward to Apple picking sometime soon, and making some Apple:  Pies, Bread, Butter (yes, I did find a recipe!!), and Crisp! =D YUM!

 

I've also been having fun thinking up gift basket ideas for different people. I didn't relize how much fun it would be! =D Lotions, teas, mugs, all sorts of goodies! =D It's fun trying to think of what the different people would like, what colors they like, etc. It's really really fun! =D Now, I just need to find a container I like, stock up on a couple more things, and then it shall be done! =D

 

Tis the season of Fall! =)

 

Country, Fall, school, gotta have it all! ;)

It's official! There's fall in the air! Today is beautiful, but just a tad nippy! Breezy, cool, Acorns pinging off the car (and Neighbor's roof!), leaves are starting to fall (oh dear!!), Sweatshirts, jeans, and Country music!

 

 

It would appear as though everything I was dreading a few days ago (Fall, school, youth group, etc.) Is actually perfect! I'm going to miss the summer air, swimming, etc.... But I also love the fall baking, the crisp air, sweatshirts, jeans, being with other people, etc. It's all beautiful in it's own way!

 

Still adjusting to a few things, but all in all, Life is good! =D

 

 

 

 

Fall time in no time!

I can't believe fall is just around the corner! Nooo! Not yet! I'm still in summer(ish) mode! You know, swimming, shorts, tank tops... SUMMER! But, once school starts (in 2 days), it will be officially (by school terms that is) done... So I'm trying very hard to cope with Fall being (almost) here already!

I'm ok with being able to open windows, take pictures of the BEAUTIFUL scenery, the crisp (fresh!) air, the holidays, the Apple and Pumpkin picking (YUM!), SOME of the baking ;) , Bonfires, and SMORES!!! =D Among other things.   ;)

 

 

 

I'm not sure I'm ready for everything else that comes with fall though. The raking of leaves, the coming of winter, the bare trees (bare trees are just kinda depressing...), no more swimming, school, having to stay inside more (because it's much chillier) etc.

 

Just like every other season (but maybe winter), I'm a bit unwilling to let go of this season, and enter the next one. But when the next season gets here, I'm almost always glad... =)

 

 

 



What's been cookin?

 

Sorry I've been away so long everyone! I've been super dooper busy! Last week was Saphira's and my little sister's birthday, and then this week has been all sorts of prepartion for a fair we enter things into every year! Below are a couple of pictures of the yeast rolls I entered in the fair... I shall have to post more photos of the things I made, after the fair...as it's going to be a busy weekend! I thought I would let you all know, I'm not ignoring you! Just getting things done for the Fair, getting ready for school/fall, and a whole bunch more of crazy things! So goes the life of a teenager ;) =)

Look yummy don't they? =D Let's hope the judges think so too!

 

Off to catch some zzzz's! Hope you all have a great week! and I shall try to update the blog sometime over the weekend! =)

See ya all next time! ;)
