Blog Giveaway andRamdom silliness....Part 2

Mary Anne over at Moonbeams had a Halloween giveaway and i won! :o) The package arrived in time for Halloween but i have been so busy i haven't had a chance to thank her!!!
There were so many fun things in the package. THANK YOU Mary Anne!


Sarah decided her favorite thing was the witch head on a stick.
Joshua decided his favorite thing was the Pez dispenser...... I haven't seen it since! lol

While at the pumpkin farm i spotted this pumpkin. (or it could be a gourd, not sure) but i knew i just had to have it! Since it was so late in the season i got a good deal on it! $1! Dh said it was ugly, but i think it is cool! Of course the I choose the half green pumpkin too. lol
This is what happens when the cursed photographer gets a hold of my camera...





On the way home from the Pumpkin farm, i saw a sign for an apple orchard/market. Luckily there was no one behind me and i slammed on the breaks and headed off to the apple orchard. Since everyone was cold and exhausted, Timothy and i went into the market to buy some apples. I cant for the life of me remember the kind of apples we got...but they are huge! This was the superstar apple of the bunch!









I really wish i had a scale to weigh this bad boy! It stands 4 1/4" and the circumference is 15"
Here he is with my pumpkins....and keeping warm....
The yellow apple is a golden delicious apple purchased at the grocery store and was one of the biggest in the bin. My orchard apples are about twice the size

.

OK...i wont bore you any longer with my apple pictures....at least not until i turn those bad boys into a pie! :o)

While at the apple place, i found this Christmas recipe book. It had some yummy recipes so I had to get it. There were several others, but i had to use self discipline and only choose one. lol

My favorite ice cream....Yum!
and my favorite PBS show....
