Inspiration....

I didn't have to go far to find my inspiration this morning!  It was right in front of me on one of my favorite cups!

Susan Branch has designed cups for all occasions!  I think it's quite handy that one of her recipes is on this one!

Here's the finished product....

I think vanilla ice cream will go great with this, warm from the oven!  Perfect for the rainy day we've had here today!

National Cat Day....

It seems there is a day to honor just about everything!  Of course, I won't quibble about yesterday.  That was National Chocolate Day!  No picture; just take my word for it.  I brought honor to the day with Mayfield's Dutch Chocolate Ice Cream with chocolate sauce on top.  The only thing missing was the whipped cream!

Today is National Cat Day!  We have had a couple of cats that we remember with affection.

You are able to see that there were two cat beds.  Regardless, Shadow always thought he should just pile on top of Ashes.  Ashes was seven years old when Shadow was born, and he treated the "young 'un" with patience. 

The picture has stuck to the glass through the years, so it is forever in this frame.  

Ashes lived to be 18 1/2; Shadow lived to be 21.  It was nice to have a cat around the house all those years! 

Autumn....

Autumn has arrived at our place!  The Crepe Myrtle and the Burning Bush received the memo!

Rabbit, rabbit....

🐇🐇Rabbit, rabbit, friends!  It's a new month!  October, the month for everything pumpkin, has arrived!

For the third day in a row here, the thermometer has reached record-setting high temperatures into the nineties!  I'm more in the mood for peach iced tea than I am a pumpkin spice latte!

Wishing you a happy month!
