A few random things

Seems like things are so busy lately, but I can't really put my finger on the difference. I've been terrible about commenting...and even reading...this last week, sorry!


Hannah and I had a delightful time yesterday. :) We went to the mall, out for dinner, then to the show, and topped it off with Starbucks. Michael Flatley is amazing! But despite the incredible dancing, my favorite part was when he played the flute (did you know he was a concert flutist?). It was absolutely amazing! I discovered that you can get the soundtrack for Celtic Tiger, so I added it to my Amazon wish list. :)

At Starbucks Hannah got a pumpkin spice latte, so I did some experimenting this afternoon...mmm! Have an espresso machine? Add 1/8 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (I have a recipe for it if you don't have the spice on hand) and 1 Tablespoon sugar to your milk before heating it. At first I thought it would be very similar to the egg nog latte that I make, but it's not. Yay! Now I have two holiday coffee drinks. :)

Beautiful things # 10 11: Leaves dancing in the road.

Dancing leaves on the road
Brilliant blue of the Autumn sky
Sunshine glowing through the trees
Walking through piles of red and gold
Anticipation

I need to get a birthday card in the mail so that it makes it by the 31st...

I think I'm addicted to Bath and Body Works. I'm not telling you how many scents of shower gel we have in our shower.

And of course, Hailie's still cute.

Edit: haha! Less than half of you knew that an abattoir was a slaughterhouse! *snigger*

I knew it. *looks smug* Of course, a dictionary always helps... ;-)

Believe it or not, I just drove past a slaughterhouse yesterday! Talk about coincidence. For all these years I was ignorant of the fact that there is a slaughterhouse in my own home town.

PS - What is your favorite B&B Work scent? I love their lavendar - REAL lavender - oil. Loverly!

Oh my goodness! I have no clue which I like best. Let me think for a minute. If I could only choose one...probably the White Tea and Ginger. But I'm really, really liking the Brown Sugar Fig that I just got on Sunday. :) I wish they had a plain lavendar shower gel. :/ I love lavendar.
