first snow

saw my first snow of the 08/09 winter yesterday. it only lasted about 3 minutes, but it was still snow. hard as it may be to see in the photo. ;)


i made butternut squash soup this weekend. well, i used a recipe for butternut squash soup. it's actually about half butternut, half acorn squash with some apple thrown in. i paused from stirring constantly to shoot this photo because frankly, i thought it was very pretty. the end result is interesting looking - but quite tasty. the recipe called for a pound of bacon ... what wouldn't be tasty about that?


the earrings i made for my costume.


and me in costume before bunco saturday night. i'll need to get someone else to shoot a better photo of the full ensemble ... but this gives you a pretty good idea. the skirt is from my prom dress. i love wearing it. :)


the weather cooling off encouraged me to pick my tomatoes. we'll see if they ripen on my window sill. i'm guessing that li'l baby one won't do much ... but it was too darn cute to leave out there.
