Hello MyLotters

Happy Monday Everyone! it's a sunny day here today and looks like a very nice day ahead. It's too chilly to sit outside right now but maybe later I'll enjoy some fresh air when it warms up a little. These early morning cooler temperatures are right up my alley. I love cooler weather and feel as if I have more energy. The heat and humidity just suck the life out of me. Today is cleaning day for me. I didn't do that much over the weekend so I'll be dragging out the vacuum as well as my steam mop for both the kitchen and bathroom floors. Dusting is in there somewhere too. I already have my clothes in the wash and it's nice that my daughter will throw them in the dryer since she's right by the laundry room. She wants to cook dinner tonight so you know I'm happy with that Chicken and broccoli over rice is on the menu. She had a great time apple picking and going out for dinner for her friends birthday. Even her friends kids had a ball and were eating the apples right off the trees. How lucky am I? she brought home a bag of apples, some cider donuts and some Linzer tarts (which are my favorite). Yes I indulged in all those sweet goodies. I'll have an apple with my breakfast but right now I'm having my coffee and planning on spending some time here before I get into the house work. Can you believe we're only a few days ago from months end??

It seems that "yesterday" I was thinking "tomorrow September starts". The months are flying away, more and more fast. How wonderful to have apples. cider donuts and Linzer tarts (those are also my favorite).

@Marilynda1225 I made Linzer cookies a few weeks ago, they are so good.

@LadyDuck those look so good!!! I've never attempted to make them myself but I might give it a try for the holidays. They're my absolute favorites.

Linzer tarts are my favorite too and I haven't been able to find good ones here. My daughter got these at the orchard in New Jersey and they were absolutely delicious.

Time is flying, I love this time of the year and that is part of why the time flies for me. The apple picking outing sounds like it was alot of fun, plus your got apple cider-I love that. Today is just a regular working day for me, its flying by quickly as we are busy.

@Marilynda1225 Sometimes I feel like every day is Thanksgiving day, my life is just so rich with blessings.

I have to agree that this time of year seems to go by faster than the rest of the year. The holidays will be here before we know it (I know your Thanksgiving is coming soon), plus you have the baby shower. At least we have good things to look forward to. (especially you )

@Juliaacv that's so good to hear that you're feeling so blessed. I know you've been through some tough times recently so the blessings kind of balance it all out.

Yep, only 3 more days left to reach the minimum. Glad you got all those goodies, hopefully she'll be able to do some more fun stuff to bring home more goodies for both Thanksgiving and Christmas.

She used to bring home lots of goodies when she worked in NY that we don't have here in PA (like good bread, bagels, pasteries, etc). She has another outing for a Halloween party so maybe she'll bring stuff home then.

What are Linzer tarts, apple is it?

The best way I can describe a Linzer tart is that it's a buttery, flaky shortbread cookies filled with sweet jam and dusted with powdered sugar. Maybe you know them as bullseyes?

So glad your daughter had a fun weekend. I just finished the last of the apples my grandkids picked after my morning walk. Brrrr this morning! Did you see your grandson’s band performance online? Have a wonderful day. Hubs is taking me for yet another beauty procedure and waiting for the tree guy.

Do apples really taste better when they've been picked by us? or is it just the thrill of apple picking that makes them so much better? I did see my grandsons band performance and they did awesome (of course I'm prejudiced) Enjoy your beauty procedure
