The prompts are back, this week it's:
what is your favorite fall scent? would you rather have a pumpkin spice
drink or apple cider?
I always like walking into a store and smelling the cinnamon pinecones this time of year. I love pine and think of Lake Placid days when I smell it. Funny enough, colorado has pine trees but no scent
Apple cider tastes clean and simple to me, don't like pumpkin spice drinks at all. I like the most, apple cider donuts along the road in apple stands in the North east this time of year. I've tried to reduce cider to make my own but they never taste of cider.
What about you?
OMGOSH
this week dh calls me over to the slider to see a hawk in our back yard. We do find bits of half eaten critters in our yard now and then, now I know we have large birds of prey (this one was large in person) creating our own nature show.
growing things
I love the bright orange berries on bushes in the fall. I like this composition with fence and berries
 |
| it was covered in them two days ago but birds... |
I like aspen trees, but why is this tree frowning? lol
I also liked the fall display of whatever these are called, the sharp tall ones turn orange/gold/brown/and pink this time of year.
TV
I love that dancing with the stars is back, survivor, golden bachelorette who is 61 with 15 suitors who are also of age, and every one of them charming. New shows of merit to me, "High Potential" where a woman with a high IQ helps solve mysteries while being a single mother.
Also "Brilliant Minds" where a man with a neurological condition is a doctor who diagnoses difficult cases. It's touching, and encouraging, and well done.... two thumbs up for me, missing the good doctor and new amsterdam. On PBS "Moonflower Murders" combining a love of books, with mysticism and a mystery.
Fine Dining
I tried a new to me recipe for candied beets. beets being good for you plus I love them. They don't photo well though they tasted extremely good.
ARTI am now doing two overlapping free workshops in art... and it's a lot to keep up with. I'll share all the photos eventually, mostly on my creativity post Saturdays but here is a taste:
Milo's Moment
Hiya hoomans
Mama: On our morning walk this week, I was reminded of the old phrase, "if you aren't the lead dog, the view never changes"
 |
| Moooooom come on!!! There's a smell up here I can't miss! |
there are worse things than looking at my tail!
Mama was watching the talky-talk (The Voice competition) this week and said,
"I didn't know Snoop-dog was so sensitive! )
I said, mentally you know, that all dogs are sensitive mama!
please visit these folks to see what they liked this week.
I love seeing aspen trees in fall... although I've only seen them in pictures, never in real life.
ReplyDeleteI'm working on the same striped-hair girl painting. I just couldn't do it on the black first though.
I love the Flower Duet from the opera Lakmé too -- so exquisitely beautiful!
ReplyDeletewe love the berries... this colors are so unique...
ReplyDeleteVery pretty photos. Hey, I like apple cider too but I haven't had any in a long while. Hey Milo, you're always the lead pup! Thanks for joining Angel Brian's Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
ReplyDeleteLots of hints of fall where you live! If you could go up into the mountains, and go down a hiking trail, there you'd find that good pine scent. We're liking the High Potential show, too!
ReplyDeleteI love apple cider and I also love beets and that recipe sound great to me!
ReplyDeleteYou live in a beautiful place with kind people. Milo you are a lucky dog! Aloha Milo you are a lucky dog! Aloha friends
ReplyDeleteCinnamon!! What's not to like about cinnamon? I don't like flavored drinks, like coffee with pumpkin spice or anything else. But I do love apple cider. I love the deeper color blue in the sky that we see late in the fall, and the dried corn stalks in contrast. Survivor has been good so far. And DWTS too. I watched the premier of Matlock (with Kathy Bates) and loved it.
ReplyDeleteI like apple cider and mulled cider in winter, but cider was $6.00 a gallon last year, so I didn't buy any. Haven't priced it this year. While I like pumpkin pie and pumpkin bread, I'm not a fan of pumpkin flavored everything else. Gave up cable, don't watch TV anymore.

Thanks for the link to the Flower Duet - so, so beautiful. Their voices blend so perfectly. We are enjoying High Potential, too. Interestingly, my hubby found it first as a UK version and then we switched over to the US version. I love beets, so I will pass that recipe on to my Head Chef! Thanks for hosting, and have a terrific weekend!
ReplyDeleteColorado is a great place to go for fall color. Luckily we have the Black Hills and the Big Horn Mtns within a days drive. And good pine scent too! The candied beets look yummy. My mom used to make Harvard Beets. We loved those.
ReplyDeleteThat must have been interesting to see that hawk! Wow!
The taste of cider depends on your apples. There are eating apples and cider apples (and you probably won't enjoy eating good cider apples.) There are lots of cider flavours from sweet to very very dry.
ReplyDeleteI love Milo from all angles :-) I am a little allergic to cinnamon so autumn/winter smells have to be vetted.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Annie x
Whenever I hear that duet I think of Shawshank Redemption. LOL. I'm looking forward to the cooler weather for baking (and the smells that go along with it).
ReplyDeleteMilo is a very clever dog, he comes up with some very thoughtful messages to us all. I've been making Beetroot and onion Tarte Tatin, very tasty. Have agood weekend. Hugs Angela xXx
ReplyDeleteI love cinnamon any time of the year. I use it a lot in baking and now that I am in Portugal, I was having a 'pastel de nata' (a type of custard tart) with my coffee, and I was served a container with cinnamon to sprinkle over it. Very nice it was indeed.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely weekend,
Lisca
I sprinkle cinnamon in brewing basket with coffee. It makes the most happy fragrance before i drink it.
ReplyDeleteI like pumpkin spice candles at this time of year, but not the drinks. Heavy rain here and a pot of soup on the stove. I like this time of year! Thank you for linking up.
ReplyDeleteI do like pumpkin and pumpkin spice but rarely go for those coffee drinks...more in baked goods! I love soup too, at this time of year. Meanwhile, glad to see Milo is keeping up on his commentary on humans and their strange behavior.
