Currently – December 2020
Hello! Welcome to my favorite linkup of the month! Anne from In Residence assigns five prompts each month and invites us to respond to them. This month we’re discussing what we’re baking, decorating, gifting, hoping, and sending. I am CURRENTLY: baking: recipes from the November and December issues of Southern Living. I want to bake ALL THE THINGS! My doctor thinks that’s not a great plan, so I’m strategically assessing the recipes and choosing just a few! Maybe these White…
Autumn Adventures 2020 – Final Update
It’s time to take a look at my Autumn Adventure List and see how I did! You can see the original list HERE. Camping. DONE! As I mentioned in my original post, Gene and I camped for several days near Chattanooga, Tennessee in September.

Of Olives, Vinegar, & Online Learning
I’m SO excited to share this with you guys! Gene and I visited Greenville, South Carolina earlier this year–BC, Before COVID–and we discovered their local Oil & Vinegar shop. I immediately fell in love with it. I didn’t know much at all about olive oils or vinegar, and/but I love learning new things! The gentleman working that day (I think his name was Robert) was kind, friendly, and incredibly helpful. He guided us through the shop and suggested some oils…
