End of Thanksgiving Weekend

So we've come to the last day of Thanksgiving weekend, we've overstuffed ourselves in this house with plenty of Turkey, Stuffing and Wine This was the first Thanksgiving I incorporated Sweet Potatoes into the feast and this is very special for me because I usually buy them in a can, okay gross I know but I didn't know what to look for like are these things ever not ripe,  I'm glad to say they turned out superb everyone thought they were yummy and the color so bright and fall like.

Topaz Tuesday

Hi and welcome to the first post of Topaz Tuesday.
Topaz is the birthstone for the month of November and on Topaz Tuesday's I'll share fun facts, pictures and information on the wonderful Topaz.
Folklore states that the Topaz was worn to help improve eyesight.
Others believed that the Topaz's supernatural powers would increase strength in the person wearing it as well as make it's wearer invisible in time of emergency.

Busy November

The last several weeks have been beyond busy for me with Holiday art/craft boutiques in the area - great learning experience.  This past week one of the things I learned right away was to try and stay away from a booth selling goodies.  In this case it was Fudge, the lady with the "Fudge Booth" had just about every type of flavor imaginable, my fave was her Oreo Cookie Fudge (crumbled Oreo cookie in chocolate fudge) and she made sure everyone got ample samples of each flavor.  I don't have much of a sweet tooth but this really good fudge and very hard to refuse.  I'll need to learn how to have more will power for her Fudge if I'm ever in a booth near her again in the future.
