Time for a Change

Seems like overnight my front porch baskets went and died. Lack of attention I guess.....
One trip to Wal-Mart will fix that. Mums and ornamental cabbages are on sale! Now if I can just keep them watered :)~Julie

Something Smells Good

A couple of day's ago, I visited a cute little shop in Farmville. Immediately as I walked in, I asked the clerk, "What smells sooo good?" She pointed to the complete wall of Yankee Candles and stated that it was a blend of everything. Well, I don't know about you, but the smell of certain candles put me in mind for fall. I couldn't resist buying myself a "tart warmer". As I was getting ready to buy some tarts, the clerk suggested that I buy the bigger votive candles and simply cut them in thirds to save $. The votives cost the same price as the tarts so needless to say, I bought some votives. My favorite one this year seems to be Autumn Wreath. I can't wait for the leaves to start changing :)~Julie

All of us kids chipped in to get her something that she has always wanted......Yes we are looking forward to getting fatter now that she has her mixer...She promises she will start with whole grain breads and then the cookies. Happy Retirement Nan! We love you very much!~Your Kids

Back To School

The Trent family is celebrating the fall season a little early this year! Tonight, Mom fixed us apple pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an after-supper treat to eat on the deck outside. It's something about the crisp apples, buttery crust, and aroma of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves that really warms the heart and makes you crave those changing leaves and cool temperatures. So bake an apple pie and enjoy! ~Alli
