Starting November

 

Peach Cobbler


Happy November, everyone!

November dawned sunny and warm with a high of 77F.  I made my usual milkrice for brunch.

In the afternoon, daughter and I went to the library.  We dropped off our ballots at the ballot box outside the library and then, we went inside the library.  We spent a few minutes browsing the shelves and I borrowed a book I had borrowed earlier, which I hadn't been able to finish reading, and a magazine.  Daughter borrowed several books, too.  She practiced her driving on the way home, which was nice.

Afterwards, daughter did some beading and I did some diamond painting.  I am determined to spend at least 30 minutes (preferably one hour) a day doing a crafts project this month.  It's an activity that brings me a lot of pleasure and yet, I often don't take the time to sit and craft.  

Dinner was ramen noodles and daughter made a Japanese style pickled cucumber salad which was delicious.  Later, she decided to bake a peach cobbler, using a packet of homegrown peaches I had frozen.  It was delicious! 

On the first day of November, I was grateful for:

- A new month and a new beginning
- Being able to vote, thanks to everyone who strove to obtain the right for women to vote
- Public libraries and all the resources they provide
- Daughter is feeling more confident about driving
- A sunny and warm day

The day's joyful activities included spending an hour or so crafting and going to the library.

Plans for Sunday include spending another hour crafting and doing some laundry.
