Homemaking Mondays: Do You Have Lists?

 

Hello!
How is your day?

As September begins 

so does a lot of things.

There was snow on the mountain this week 

as the temps dropped and the rain came.

The leaves are changing and the frosts

are starting to leave lovely patterns 

for us in the mornings.

I had my birthday a couple days ago

and was gifted some thoughtful gifts.

Some new oven mitts as mine are getting thin.

They're beautiful blue and white to match my kitchen.

Some lovely smelling soap,

and a beautiful new pad for my grocery lists.

If you know me, you know I'm a list person.

So this new pad will be delightful to use.

Are you familiar with Wrendale designs?

It is one of my favourite companies

with their delightful array of birds and animals.

With fall comes new jobs.

I cleaned out the sunroom 

of all the sand of summer and put things

back in their place.

I brought in some of the flowers 

to keep them out of the frosts

for a little while longer.

I also brought some mint 

that will go into some nice 

cups of tea.

As I was moving the flowers

I noticed that the chamomile had a few more blossoms.

So I think this is the last of them for the season. 

I have just placed them in this pretty dish

to dry for tea.

This morning I am having a lovely blend of

chamomile, calendula, peppermint, & fireweed green

tea with cream.

I'm getting more used to tea that is unsweetened.

A new carnivore meal that I made is

meat pizza.

I spread a thin layer of hamburger

covered with diced pepperoni

and topped with some grated marble cheese.

It was delicious and I am thinking 

of all the variations we could make.

It will be a good meal to use up leftover meat.

My husband took me on another 

lovely day trip.

We took our new to us camper truck.

We drove out to this amazing lake and stopped 

at the campground there for a meal and a nap.

There was a sweet little pathway from the campsite to the lake.

I just love the mountain views 

that you can see from the road.

The peaceful sound of the waves on the 

rocky shore made me want to 

stay there for hours.

What have you been up to as fall 

has been coming around?

I hope you have a beautiful day 

keeping your home! 

Love and Prayers,

Jennifer
