Right Here, Right Now






Guess what's baking in my oven right now, filling my house with its delicious aroma?

We went apple picking on Friday, all seven of us (the third photo above is a shot of all five of my "babies"). It was a beautiful autumn day, perfect for a country outing. We walked through the pumpkin patch and down dirt roads to get to the orchard. After picking, we ate just-fried apple-cinnamon donuts and drank farm fresh milk and cider. Then we visited the farm animals and hand-fed them cracked corn.

Tonight, we're catching up on episodes of Broadchurch and Sleepy Hollow, I've got my knitting in my lap, and there's warm apple crisp and vanilla ice cream for dessert. Life doesn't get any better than right here, right now.
