As the hour passed, the fog moved inward, dispersing thicker before starting to disappear. The chill in the air is, what I call, "camping weather." It's just cold enough to want to curl up in a hoodie or jacket, and sit around a warm campfire enjoying nature. I love it!
As I stood on the porch (in my jammies) taking these photos, I took advantage of soaking in the quiet (sounds of nature) outside before traffic increased. I could hear a rustling in the field, but did not see any deer.
Our 19 year-old is moving into her college apartment today. It's shared with other students and non-students, where bathrooms and the kitchen are shared. We are packing up our vehicles to help move her, and I have already given her a bag of "goodies" for the move.
However, her "survival list" is much bigger than what's in the bag. I don't think even I thought about what she'd need. She is lucky to have a full kitchen to cook in, versus a dorm, where she would have been much more limited on meals.
We are also giving her garden potatoes, fresh farm eggs, garden onions, and milk. I wish my garden had produced more, but I am thankful for what I did get from it. I do have canned pickles and relish too. Those can be used for sandwiches as well as making tuna, chicken and pasta salads.
She also picked out 2 hand knitted dishcloths, and a dish scrubbie.
I had planned to can onion soup this season, but I read the recipe again, and you freeze your pints. I have no room in my freezer, so onion soup is off the list of to-do's. Maybe next year....
Today I am grateful for:
~ the absolutely wonderful morning chill
~ hot coffee in 3 minutes
~ God's Promises
