Happy November!
Now that we’ve trick or treated 👻
And fallen back 🍂 Do you remember Shirley Temple?
Time to think Thanksgiving! 🍗
My recipe bucket list this month is a mixture of Thanksgiving appropriate foods as well as comfort food for cooler weather. I always list many more recipes that I can make, but having a short list of ideas to pick from makes for fast planning of weekly menus
So many tempting recipes, so little time!!
New! Now I am making a Pinterest Inspiration board for the monthly Paint Bucket. You can see the Novemeber Paint Bucket here Be prepared to drool 😋
