prosodicI went down to the farmers' market this morning because it's the final Saturday and the dip mix lady was going to be there. I promised my mom I would get her some packets of cheesy bacon dip. I made some when they were visiting and they loved it.
So I got those, and a packet of meatloaf seasoning. I think I'll make some meatballs with it.
And pumpkins have been harvested, so I picked up 4 small pumpkins - 2 white with orange stripes and 2 orange.
And I got a 5 lb. bag of Washington potatoes for $2. I thought about getting some late season tomatoes as well, but the lines at that produce stand were long.
So I came home with my finds and proceeded to decorate the fireplace mantel. I removed a few of the normal decorations, put the pumpkins on the mantel. I have orange lights and leaf garlands. It looks quite nice. I'll take pictures when it starts getting dark.
Of course, now we need to have someone come out and look at the fireplace so we can start using it. We don't want another incident like we had on Christmas day, when Lance almost blew himself up when he lit the fireplace.
We postponed our shopping trip to McChord for tomorrow. This afternoon, I have a date with Farlis to take the dogs for a walk. It's a gorgeous, early fall day. Low 60's and sunny.
I'm trying not to let anything get me down today. I'm just trying to enjoy the weather and the football game and a beautiful day during my favorite season.
