Three Things...Gratitude Thread

[bluecastle]

...aaaaaand now I'm hungry!!! We noticed a couple of weeks ago that the eggnog has already made its way to our dairy case and even the eggnog ice cream is out for sale.

Our supermarket had Christmas candy set up right next to the Halloween candy this past week!

Happy Saturday Friends

#1 - MY NAILS - My beautician gave me super fun nails for Halloween on Thursday. Our patients at work always love how I look for the holidays. Every day this upcoming week I’ll be in different Halloween shirts & sweaters and my nails will look great with them

#2 - MY FAKE PUMPKINS - I have many fake pumpkins and jack o lanterns that I love looking at this time of year.

#3 - SWEET POTATOES - I love them, especially on Thanksgiving when I make candied sweet potatoes - yum, yum yum!

@TiggerTrigger Yeah... could ya tell I hadn't had anything to eat yet, when I posted?
All the eggnog stuff is on the shelves here, but I'm waiting for the peppermint stick ice cream to show up!!
LittleGuy just said he wants eggnog pie for Thanksgiving dessert, so I guess we'll be doing eggnog for a while this fall!

2. the beautiful black and orange butterflies that come to my lantana;
3. sweet potatoes

Orange things...

Syracuse University men's basketball!! Go, Orange, GO!! (even if their mascot is kinda stoopid...)

My new car! Well, practically new, we bought it in April? March? It's a Kia Soul, and the official color is Mars Orange.

Butternut squash, and turnip (actually rutabaga but here in my corner of New England, we call it turnip). These are two stand-bys on my holiday table, mashed with butter. YUM.

Afternoon all,

Have to admit orange things tend not to be something I gravitate towards!

1. My WDW sweatshirt - i bought a dark orange sweatshirt on my last visit that I really love and fits in well in this autumnal time of year.

2. Epcot Lunch Bag - another purchase from my last visit, this is a orange food & wine festival lunch bag that I use every time I go into work.

3. Pumpkin shaped or spiced items - not a fan of real pumpkin but I do love anything orange pumpkin shaped and I adore pumpkin spice including candles etc, and these are often orange.

My morning orange
The MK lamp pole decorations
Loved candy corn when I was a kid and I was convinced that the orange section tasted the best

For you leebee: (my nephew went there and I always post this on his FB page on his birthday)

Today's Topic (Sun, 10/26) - if Tennessee is your home state or vacation spot (or if you just love things from there) - 3 things you're grateful for about it - otherwise, 3 things you're grateful for beginning with the letter T

 

[WDWEPCOT]

My wonderful next door mom she was from the great state of Tennessee This is how I became a combo of Southern and New England slang as I had her Bless your Heart and my New England parents yup and grew up in the Midwest - so I’ve got it all covered except the west coast - I love this journey for you I’m often asked if I’m from NY

Tires I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again because we’re going into winter I can’t stress this enough you need a good set of tires make sure you always have a good set of tires that are running at the right air temperature for your tires your life could depend on it!! always have a good set of tires!!!

Thermals - yes I still wear them!!! Being from the I am always cold union I’m a card carrying member have been for decades going through the change did not help that situation one bit nor did it change it I’m still always cold

Happy Sunday Friends!

#1 - TUESDAYS - I start work at 1pm on Tuesdays, which is nice for me to go to the gym, run some errands and go to doctors appointments.

#2 - TOYOTA - My car is a Toyota and my last car was one too. I love my car and I’m grateful for it every time I drive it. My next car will be a Toyota too.

#3 - TURKEY LUNCHMEAT - Specifically from our town butcher. He cooks real turkey breasts and those are cut for lunch meat. It has zero preservatives and no artificial flavors. It’s very good and I buy some every week.

T things...
Tropical-themed clothes. DD and I did a resort-only stay at the Poly a couple of years ago and got matching tropical print tees and a dress to wear while there. It's fun to wear matching outfits, even though she's in her 30s!

Toothpaste/toothbrush, because I HATE going to the dentist!

Tea. I have always been a coffee girl, but have started drinking teas with honey in the evenings. It increases my fluid intake and I enjoy the relaxation aspects of a hot beverage in the evening.

"starting with T" ~

toilets / indoor plumbing - it's starting to get chilly at night here, and I'm reminded again to be grateful that I was born in modern times

tracing paper - loved it as a kid!

and another vote for tea - like @leebee, I'm trying to drink more herbal tea, because sometimes I really want something warm, but don't want to overdo the coffee

Bonus "from Tennessee" ~
Dolly Parton! - for some reason, my playlist of her songs has been my go to on Spotify lately, and just makes me feel good.
