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. In October we headed up to Asheville, North Carolina, another of our favorite camping/hiking areas. We had a great time in spite of some rain and temps that were warmer than we had hoped. We hiked…
Autumn is finally here!!! Hooray! Here in Savannah we enjoyed a few days of cooler temps, but now temps and humidity are back to normal. Ah well! I’m linking up with Leslie again to share the list of things I’m hoping to do during the next few months. My Autumn Adventures! Camping. It’s no secret that Gene and I love to tent camp. We don’t camp during the summer because it’s just too hot, but come autumn we’re ready to…
I totally missed last month’s Currently link up. I was going to do a UK Vacay Edition and might still backtrack and do it. For right now though, I’ll play along with this month’s prompts from Anne at In Residence. I am CURRENTLY… ordering: espresso powder. I’ve been wanting some for months now and finally ordered it. Now I just need to bake with it! Hmmmm. Any suggestions for a chocolate recipe that can be amped up with espresso powder?…

It’s way past time for me to join in on Anne’s monthly Currently link up! This month’s prompts are starting, buying, sharing, reading, and recording. I am CURRENTLY… starting to crave all things autumn! Man, I’m ready for fall! Temps are still in the high 80s here in Savannah, Georgia, but that’s a blessed relief from all the 90s and 100s of the last few months! I *might* have baked a pumpkin pie today. And I *might* be…

Fall fashion is my favorite! And the weather here in Coastal Georgia is FINALLY cooperating with the calendar! Hooray! Today I’m sharing a great fall fashion find, an affordable, comfortable dress from Old Navy. I’m 5’6″, and a lot of Old Navy’s dresses are too short for me to wear as a dress. I have to wear them as a tunic instead. But this dress is JUST the right length for me! PLUS it’s an A-line swing dress! That means…
