...10.24...Friday Update...

...just a quick post before we head out for my sweet sissie's house for the weekend...so looking forward to that visit...

...but earlier we put up the halloween decorations...

...we got the Halloween decorations down from the attic...our first time unrolling the nifty dangly light storage...it worked beautifully...perfectly NON-tangled lights...

...we put the two ceramic pumpkins that actually use candles for light down at the bottom of the steps and the row of solar-light-up pumpkins down the sidewalk...

...and the 20+ year old happy/sweet witchie on the post...and the two old-but-still-working electric/foam pumpkins by the doorway where they can be plugged in...

...and the flame lights in the overhead lights...and we were done...

...spooky...

...in preparations for the trip where we'll be celebrating Sissie's birthday...long overdue...I made her a cake...

...vegan...just like Mom's orange one from last month...

...it turned out great...

...I used my pretty fluted pan...

...and I packed a sammie for the 3+ hour trip...

...a cross section...I'm already looking forward to eating this...

...with a Poppi...of course...

...and I packed my bag...(over-packed probably)...

...and on the way to the car...I snapped a couple of photos of the greens we'd planted in the winter garden...

...kind of surprised that they're already up...but thrilled...

~Wishing you a lovely start to your weekend!
