The sun finally made an appearance! Boy it was nice. I got out of the house and got a few smallish errands done. The library was first, but I also made a visit to the local orchard. The only thing we needed was local honey, but I picked up some locally made apple cider and some red delicious apples that were on sale. I'm thinking apple oatmeal breakfast bake, pork chops and apples, and more.

First Snow
I finally got to the grocery store. I noticed that they now only sell one type of tahini now. They used to carry about 6 different brands. I also noticed the peanut butter selection is much smaller.
In the midst of trying to find the tahini, we had a conversation with a woman who was shocked at the price of eggs right now. Then we were talking about hummus and found out she could not eat chickpeas, so I told her she could make hummus with pumpkin, black beans, beets etc. She was so happy to find that out and said she grew pumpkins this year. Anyway, nice lady and I was glad I could share with her.
We had our first snowfall. It's officially winter. It snowed all day, but melted away. Nice big snowflakes too. They kind that make you want to hunker in and crochet. I did that too, only due to the fact I can't really do anything, other than tidy up the boot area in the hallway (I may do that today).
