The weather is all over the map. We recently dipped to 35°F, and yesterday we hit 80°, but then rain moves back in later this week. They predicted the next weekend to be very cold, and that changed quickly. Friday they are saying we may hit the 80's in our area. It's literally crazy weather.
We have been so busy with just about everything here lately. The AC units have been put in in storage for winter, and we started back on the new coop (very slow going, always running into an issue).
Heck, I still have to take down the hanging porch plants that have died off.
I am contemplating putting any Christmas lights outside this year. They are sitting in the kitchen awaiting my decision. I'm just not into it this year (yet), and I believe it's due to all the unfinished projects around here.
I tried a new recipe and we love it!! I used home roasted garden pumpkin of course, and made homemade pumpkin pie spice. I had some GA pecans left, so I used those, and this recipe is a keeper! It's online with The Real Food Dietitians - Pumpkin Baked Oatmeal.
I roasted two smaller pie pumpkins at the same time, so I have extra pumpkin to bake/cook with now. I put two more pints in the freezer. I roasted the seeds, and saved some seeds (drying on a screen).
I have more pumpkins to roast, but gaining on that task. I don't have a proper storage area for them, so it is how I put them up for the winter.
Just when I think I will have some free time, I do not, ha ha! I took advantage of our Indian Summer, and washed up all of the camper bedding, and put it on the clothesline. However, the bugs were terrible. I could not even sit on the porch, the bugs were that bad.
