First Day of Fall: Cooking + Relaxing

My day in pictures. 

Lemon Orzo Soup in the crock pot for this week's lunch.  

Applesauce

Tomorrow's Dinner: Cider Mill Stew.  If it's good I will share the recipe tomorrow.

It looks like I spent all day in the kitchen, but I spent tons of time playing too!

We played with pinwheels

We chased butterflies

We took a break from it all

We also made a major mess of toys inside, but no use stressing everyone out with a photo of it.

We had a nice dinner of pork chops with apples, creamed spinach, carrots and a salad

Our apple pound cake had so much promise going into the oven..
It was awful.

Apple turnovers for Monday morning breakfast

The kid's are excited to try them!

We are all now snuggled on the couch watching Elf.

Hope everyone has a good week!  Tomorrow I have a special blog post I am excited to share!
