We bought a few apples, like a few dozen apples, a few weeks ago. As I was reading blogs and linking from one to the next I found a whole lot of apple recipes I wanted to try. Last weekend I tried two of them, both successes.
For dinner, Husband made this beautiful Chicken & Spiced [...]

I think a scarf in this color, don’t you?
Mexican Layer Dip
Posted in Uncategorized on October 27, 2009 | 3 Comments »
We went to a party last week and were asked to bring an appetizer. We went to the half-haunted Halloween at Woodlake Nature Center, so I needed something I could make ahead of time and that would be hearty when we were cold and hungry. I chose a Mexican bean dip and it was delicious. [...]
Autumn Color Palette
Posted in Inspiration, Minneapolis, Projects on October 27, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Everyone said the colors this fall would not be good. There was no rain, then too much rain, then snow. So the leaves were expected to drop early, before they had time to become beautiful. I think “they” were wrong. I brought Dog on a much needed walk yesterday and was amazed as I walked [...]
Curried Apple Pumpkin Soup
Posted in Cooking, Recipes on October 25, 2009 | 2 Comments »
I found myself without a car a couple days ago. The Service Engine Soon light came on. Then the temperature gauge went to Hot. Then I brought it to the shop. They drove us home and Daughter, Dog and I were alone in the house with a baking Pumpkin and it was snowing. What were [...]

Something that enters as an element into a mixture.
I feel like I’m back. Back to blogging, back to cooking, and back to the real world. Over the past few months I’ve been searching for something. Maybe a bit of myself, but mostly inspiration. And I’ve found it. All around me. And particularly in the blogs [...]

I met a friend for lunch today back in the old neighborhood. Nice to be back.
Afton Apple

It’s been a mighty cold Autumn around these parts (um, snow), but we still made it down to Hastings to visit my favorite orchard. We didn’t pick anything on our own, but were still able to pick up some pumpkins and beautiful apples.
We picked up a half-peck of my favorite variety, the Honeycrisp. They’re not [...]
Morning Tea
Posted in Inspiration, Minneapolis on October 18, 2009 | 3 Comments »
Every morning, or at least Monday through Thursday, I’m greeted by the adorable face on this mug. It was a gift from friends a couple years ago and it looks just like my little Boston Terrier. He’s such a delight, and it’s great to have him with me every morning at the office. I load [...]
Wednesday Walk*
Posted in Blogs, Inspiration, Photography, Textures, Wednesday Walk on October 14, 2009 | 3 Comments »
Today I took a 10 minute break from the office and went on a short walk around the neighborhood. I was inspired by Anna’s Photo Meet up and Jen’s photos of New York City. I hoped I would fine something inspiring right outside my door. I was right. I did.
* Something new to The Write [...]
