Step 2: Slit the inner bag
Step 3: Put in in the oven and bake for two hours until it is done.
Cornbread! Yup, I made it too!
Meanwhile my woodland critters gathered for their little get together:
The neighbors to the east of us are hunting the meadow relentlessly for a very large buck. I hope the monster buck makes it through this season. I'd like to find his sheds.
[This shot was taken two days ago on our land by our trail camera. The fence can be seen behind the buck that separates our land from the neighbors]
I'm still stuck indoors. Grounded because the guys in the meadow are hunting and hubby doesn't want me anywhere in our woods.
I carried on a Thanksgiving tradition of my own.
Purging, vacuuming and cleaning the little basement. It is a job I won't do unless I am forced indoors.
Success! I cleaned out 3 large totes! Hubby would have a fit, but I cleaned out all of the old hunting clothes that were merely blood stained rags and light overcoats of blaze orange.
They were full of holes from 40 years of hunting. Many of the jackets had rips all over them and were passed down from the days his father hunted.
I save the good jacket but bundled up all the old stuff.
My motto is that if it hasn't been used in years? Well ... it is gone! None of these items have been used in over 7 years.
Let's just say that I filled the back of the Subaru Outback with old items that even wouldn't make good hand-me-downs.
I vacuumed up and swept and purged and cleaned.
The past few mornings and evenings have been amazing as far as color. The shots below were taken from my porch or through the windows.
Last night as I finished doing dishes, hubby's daughter called and they had a nice chat. It is good to see my husband smile.
Whew. So far I've survived deer hunting season and Thanksgiving.
Next up....
