Winter Wonderland

On our way home from Denver this week, this is what we saw looking out the window before take off

And on our taxi out to the runway the army of snow plows

I was pretty glad we were flying.

After we got above the mess I noticed a faint but nice little circular rainbow.  You'll have to look close to see it (G said the picture just looks like there's something wrong with the camera, so look for that spot.)

I missed taking a picture of the other airplane in the skies with us for awhile; it looked like a little toy airplane off in the distance.  And unfortunately, we only took a few pics while we were actually in CO, and they all have the babe in them, so no posting of those.  But needless to say, it was a fun trip and we hope we can go back soon!

Bread Elitists

I made some rolls/buns a bit ago (a pretty regular occurrence at our house) but I only used white flour.  Not the usual whole wheat.  G said he must be turning into a bread elitist because he actually prefers the rolls with the freshly ground wheat.  Seriously?  Who wouldn't like to chow down on some of this?

How we do Halloween

Not ones for a lot of celebration of Halloween, we simply carved a pumpkin this year and called it good.  We couldn't decide for the longest time what to carve, and it got put off until the night before Halloween.  G turned out to be the superstar designer for us this year and made us this beauty
He's so indulgent of me and my fetish.  Unfortunately, the candle wouldn't stay lit for very long with the lid on (lack of oxygen does that...)  But we did enjoy our work of art for a few days, until we noticed that it was turning into a living creature and trying to regrow itself...
