First snow of season :(

The deer are back and sporting winter gray-brown coats. Seven does were in the field beneath the house but you can probably see only four of them in this picture. A few weeks back there was a deer herd in Albrecht's apple orchard in Millville. A couple of them were bucks with good-sized antlers.

Our high beam headlights went out on the car when we were 3000 miles out of warranty. We were quoted $2267.00 for new ones! I'd do without them before I'd pay that much. The dealer made a phone call and got them covered for us. Hallaleujah!

Colds are making the rounds in this household. Unfortunately it is my turn.

We've had pumpkin-chocolate chip cookies, homemade cinnamon rolls, a peach dessert, turkey, buttercup squash and other fall foods with apple dumplings coming up this weekend.
