Hi angel friends :) my family and i hope everyone is doing well, and enjoying a peaceful day :) Thank you all for your wonderful well wishes, prayers, hugs, and sweet comments :) hot tea cheers! :) i'm feeling better today :) i had a really good night's sleep, and i don't feel achey/weak. my energy definitely is well :) my throat is still a bit sore, but i took a tylenol this morning, and been drinking hot teas, with honey, and water :) i'm definitely on the mend, and getting closer to my full health again :) it's been a long week, but my family and i, are so thankful to be doing a bit better :) Lisa, the triplets, and i, all feeling better, and we're looking forward to some great upcoming times, to share in, and to celebrate with you all, as the fall season arrives tomorrow, we're planning an awesome baking friday adventure :)
This morning, we had a sweet new day, rising and shining :) i've been enjoying the joys of checking in on our plants :) they're doing really well, continuing to grow and flourish :) it has been a bit windy, gusty breezes out there today and in recent days, but overall, the plants have held up pretty well :) The popcorn plants, growing absolutely wild! :) 14 popcorn cobs, we may even have more popcorn cobs grow! :) it's really neat, how the cornstalks are growing 2 popcorn cobs :) i had no idea, this many cobs would grow, especially after the early struggles with getting the plants started, during may/june, but when i transplanted the plants into planters, and put them in more sunshine in our front yard, the plants really took off, and have grown so well :) definitely our best ever, popcorn growing season :) i absolutely am so thrilled, to harvest popcorn cobs :)
the plants are still very healthy, and with the upcoming weather, being in the 80's, the plants are gonna continue to flourish, and we could see, a growth of the plants, well into October :) it's been a nice extended gardening season :) we recieved some tropical rainfall yesterday, during the late afternoon. it was really neat, how it was raining. the raindrops looked like they were falling in slow motion, it was cool! :) that jose storm has continued to be off the coast of new england, it seems to just be hanging out right there off the coast, it's really wild. Thankfully the storm hasn't made any landfalls up here in New England. it's been mostly gusty breezes, and occasionally there's a big gust of winds. today, and in recent days, it's almost been like, if you go down by the water side, and there's a breeze, that's what it's been like here, with the storm off the coast.
Our flowers are doing well too :) we have a big mammoth sunflower growing, and blossoming :) i'd love to harvest the seeds :) we're seeing lots of morning glory flowers, cosmos too :) it's awesome :) i'm very happy, and delighted that everyone's been enjoying viewing pictures of our plants, and garden :) it warms my heart, and brings me lots of smiles :) i look forward to taking many more pictures to share :) i went outside today, a few times, for osme nature walks, and getting some nice fresh air :) i'm pumped up to see the plants doing great, including our pineapple plant that's growing :) once it gets colder outside, i'll bring the plant indoors, and keep it in our addition, where it'll be warmer, and will be able to continue to grow :) i could see us, harvesting our 1st ever, pineapple next late spring, or summer :) there's always lots of garden hope :)
i'm so glad, and thankful to be feeling better, and having a good day :) i rested a lot yesterday, but today have been able to do more, including tidying up, organizing my computer room a bit :) i'm very excited, to string up my halloween town lights this upcoming weekend :) halloween town is looking BOO-eautiful, and is gonna be ready, for a spook-tacular, and thrilling, debut on October 1st :) the 1st day of the halloween season! :) i've got some more decorating, and halloween shopping plans, for this upcoming weekend, and i also want to blossom into some letters writing :) it's gonna be so nice, writing some letters, and putting together a treasures package :) we'll be going to the post office next wednesday, to send out some special deliveries :)
COOL NEW COLLECTIBLES! :) on walmart.com i ordered 4 boxes of TWD, season 7 trading cards :) woot!!! :) Holly and i collect the cards :) season 7 topps cards just came out, and i've been reading on a collector's cards forum, people buying some of the boxes, and pulling out some great, and awesome relics cards, autographs, sketch cards, and lots more :) i bought 2 boxes for Holly, and 2 for myself :) it'll be a surprise for her :) We'll have lots of fun opening the boxes :) it's gonna be great! :) each box, comes with 10 packs, plus 1 "hit" pack, which will have either, an autograph, relic card, or a sketch card, which are very collectible :) it's gonna be so much fun, seeing which cards we got :) on walmart.com, i got free shipping too :) i can't wait until we get our cards :) i'm pumped up, as the new season of TWD, begins next month, and it's gonna be a wild, and awesome new season :)
We're enjoying a nice peaceful thursday :) my family and i are doing well, and are in great spirits :) it feels really nice, to be feeling better, regaining my health, and looking forward to many more great times this month, and new fall season :) We have a very special happy 10th birthday, baking friday adventure planned, for tomorrow :) It's gonna be very nice, celebrating, and baking an apple pie :) We baked an apple pie, on the 1st ever baking friday, and we want to honor baking friday's 10th birthday, by baking an apple pie :) We look forward to sharing our adventure with everyone :) i've been hanging out today, i had some phone calls, tidying up my computer room a bit, and also enjoying some nice nature walks :) Holly and i are gonna watch some cool youtube videos tonight :) Thank you angel friends, so very much, for all that you do for us :) You all are wonderfully nice, sweet, and very caring :) We deeply appreciate everything, with all of the love of our hearts :) BIG GROUP WARM FRIENDSHIP HUG :) There's many more great things to look forward too, with family, friends, and the spirit of the fall season :)

We're hopeful for some calm, sunny weather soon :) our popcorn plants are doing amazing! :)

glad your feeling better Chris. Your sunflowers look so pretty as do the rest of your flowers. I see your getting into the Halloween Spirit. Nice! Glad your sister is feeling better as well. much ♥/blessings/greenies
Wow, ten years of baking Fridays! That means we've known each other for ten years, too!! Happy ten year friend-a-versary!! Hehe friends forever :)
Glad you're feeling better. Looking forward to seeing the sunflower seed crop... lots of halloween snacks :) xxx
Ten years of baking Friday's!! That is a wonderful tradition. I remember when Kayla and Taylynn were little and helping you with baking Friday. It is so cool that your nieces and nephews will have such a wonderful memory of their Uncle Chris when they get older. Everyone should learn how to bake.
Really warm here this weekend as well. It has been in the 80's all week here. The weekend is supposed to be absolutely gorgeous so I want to take advantage of what will probably be the last really warm weekend for a while. We have a cold front coming through next week that will knock our temperatures down into the low 70's high 60's.
I am making apple pie today as well. Cindy and I got some apples last week and we had so much food they didn't get eaten so I need to use them up. We will have to compare our pies!! I love apple pie with vanilla ice cream. It is my favorite dessert.
So glad that you are feeling better. This time of the year is a bad one for colds and allergies. John has been really miserable with his allergies. Mine are a lot better for now and I hope they stay that way.
Take care and enjoy your day. I can't wait to see all the pictures of your 10th anniversary of baking Friday.
Great pictures,happy baking day.Have happy baking day my friend,friends for ever.your friend Shirley
