Soup's On

What's a gray, cool Autumn day if it isn't for making a nice hearty soup to have with a slice of warm, fresh baked bread?

Whole grains and beans, with garlic, onions, celery, carrots and smoked polish sausage.

I love buying and storing dried mixes like this. The cost of this bag was under $4, and it can easily make 3 meals for a family of 4. Now that's economical!

Fire Logs

With the coolness of Autumn well established here in the Northeast, I've been longing for the cozy ambiance of a crackling fire. So.....for the past week, I've been enjoying watching the glowing embers and listening to the crackling of my newly purchased electric fire logs!

  
 While I do love the warmth and dancing flames of a real fire, this year, I've found the electric fire logs to be a happy solution to enjoying a "fire" all day long, without any fuss or maintenance! ☺

(I purchased my set at Lowe's, for what I thought was a very reasonable price of $40....)

Ye Shall Know....

"And there came a man of God, and spake unto the king of Israel, and said, Thus saith the Lord, Because the Syrians have said, The Lord is God of the hills, but he is not God of the valleys, therefore will I deliver all this great multitude into thine hand, and ye shall know that I am the Lord."        1 Kings 20:28
