Currently - October '20

Let's get right to it, shall we?


admiring - my shiny new running shoes, which I hope will inspire a shiny new running routine (or at the very least some running!)

going - last weekend we went to the Temple Hall Farm pumpkin patch and returned home with the three beauties shown above. We met up with my cousins there and then headed to Vanish Farmwoods Brewery for lunch. Both places had lots of outdoor space and it was easy to maintain social distance, making it a highly enjoyable outing.

making - crock pot tomato sauce and my favorite spicy pickled radishes to make some room in the produce drawers for this week's CSA haul. I've made the sauce with all different kinds of tomatoes and other veggies depending on what we have on hand, and it comes out a little differently each time.

scheduling - time off this Friday and next Friday. September and the first part of October have been a whirlwind at work with a ton of meetings and at least 1 presentation/webinar to prep for and deliver each week. That, plus anxiety about the upcoming election and continuing to live through a pandemic has me feeling a bit worn out. No plans for this Friday other than staying away from screens and hopefully some time outside, but next week we'll head to Delaware for 2 nights of camping.

wishing - this could be the year we just stay on daylight savings time. Do we really need it getting darker even earlier in the fall/winter?
