Coffee anyone ?

Coffee is on.
Pretty stiff this morning... will try not to just sit around. Pies to bake, chores... very windy with gusts in the 50mph range. 50° but will drop all day they say.

Thanks for the coffee. Today will be an inside day. Going to make pumpkin pies, cornbread dressing, do laundry and whatever else comes to mind.

I'm "planning" to continue work on the run-in I've started. We'll see if I can get done. Rains threatening, so just up in the air. If rain wins, then inside it will be. Probably not cooking much but, cleaning is still waiting for me!

No big dinner here. DD & DGD are going to her dad's tomorrow, DS--who knows? -- me, not a big deal as I have all kinds of food here!! Just another day and I'm thankful it's at home, actually. My ex invited me to their dinner but, I really just don't feel I want to go. Have stuff to do here that's more in need and the quiet is more inviting.

My coffee was strong and welcome this morning. I'm ready to tackle the shed build now..... Other chores were done. I love how happy those animals are to see me -- when I am loaded with a wheelbarrow of hay.

I'm finishing my third cup. then prepping food for tomorrow. The boys and Kid#1's GF are coming. I love Thanksgiving and it is the one day when I enjoy all the hours of food prep for a 15 minute meal, haha.

I got the cornbread dressing made, grapefruit salad made, 2nd load of laundry in the dryer and ate lunch. Going to make the sweet potatoes next.

I haven't done anything this morning except butcher 4 hogs. Ok, really I sat and watched someone else butcher hogs for me. It was nice! Four hogs down, one in my ice chest and they took three with them. Two of theirs were free just for butchering. One of their friends called the guy while he was butchering and he wanted one too - so I sold him one cheap and they butchered that one too. Lower feed bill, meat in my freezer, and in theirs! Win/win for everybody!

It's a good day to be indoors if you have to be. Windy, with gusts up to 60mph they say. We are pretty well sheltered by trees and it hasn't been too bad yet, but a big gust went through at 4 a.m. and I heard a bucket getting propelled past the bedroom window.
Got two turkey breasts roasting, the sweet potatoes are ready for the next step, potatoes peeled and green beans snapped. The floors have been steamed, rugs in the washer. Doing as much prep as possible today, so maybe I can sneak a ride in tomorrow morning before the kids show up. Supposed to be partly sunny and not so windy.

We made pumpkin pecan praline, what did you all make?

 

[promiseacres]

Sky high chocolate mousse pie is for us, an apple for my hay helper. Will make pumpkin but maybe not today. Need to see when dh wants to have the turkey I bought. Probably Saturday or Sunday. The crust is ready.
