Apartment Face-Lift


With the wonderful Fall season approaching, I thought it would be nice to redecorate our apartment. Also...Mike was out of town a bunch this month, which left me with a lot more alone time :)

Here aresome pics the new and improved apartment :)

Autumn in C'ville

Football, chili, chips, apple cider and donuts, leaves changing, and cooler weather…



Autumn is my favorite season! I have to say, nothing compares to Autumn in N.Y., but C’ville has it’s appeal…this weekend we went to Carter Mountain’s Apple Harvest Festival with friends, Josh and Jackie. The view was amazing and the apples were just as good. Mike and I thought about quitting our jobs to buy a large piece of land on top of a mountain in C’ville to start a similar orchard and winery. Ours would have better cider shipped in from Schutte’s Cider Mill of Webster, NY! Oh yeah, I guess you need the finances to start something like that.





So, after a great Fall adventure, we were left with many apples. I decided to make applesauce, easy enough right? Well, lets just say many hours later I had great applesauce. My lesson from that adventure….learn from your mistakes (core the apples before you boil them). Thanks to Jackie’s special touch, I have many containers of sugar-free cinnamon applesauce in my freezer.
