Sunshine in Autumn
With all the dreary days of late, we finally have some sunshine and a chance to photograph the beautiful color surrounding our home. Love, love, love this time of year. These are the colors that make my heart happy.

A First Time for Everything
I can hear Mister out in the kitchen concocting something so I'm off for a peek. He is making us martinis. I've never had a traditional martini and thus, a new experience will happen. Oh -- yes, I like them and this is only a prep picture -- there wasn't any ice in them when they were made. Mister was just chillin' the glasses.

Thanksgiving Sunday

Around 4, Mister asks if I would like to go and get a beer from the Black Friday treats at Lakewood Growler. He certainly doesn't have to ask twice. We grab dinner from leftovers, eat, and head out. What a great day together and we really didn't do much at all. Recovery days are so nice.

A Day in the Kitchen - with Brown and Serve Roll recipe.
I have an entire day in the kitchen planned and a TON of things to accomplish as well. I remember the last time I made ChexMix thatI managed to get so very much done during the 15 minute intervals that I decided to log it this time. Mainly to prove to myself that I waste a ton of time each day and secondly to prove to those who say they don't have enough time to do homemade things --- yep you do. Honest. I am up to the challenge.

It is 8:00 a.m. and after starting the laundry and straightening a couple of rooms, I am prepping 2 batches of ChexMix. Mister would say I have my mise en place finished. Each batch is in a large bowl with a small bowl nearby containing the spices. I have the butter and worcestershire on the cupboard near the stove. The butter for the first batch goes into the oven for a melt.
As soon as it has melted, I add the worcestershire and seasonings to the butter and stir it all in. Then the cereal/nut/pretzel/bagel chip mixture is added as well.
Into the oven it goes for the first 15 minute interval. It is 8:30.
