Full moon and baking time

Sonny and I always smoke hams and turkey breast for our church thanksgiving dinner each year. So we are doing that today. We are also having my sister and BIL out for Thursday Thanksgiving dinner so we are smoking an extra turkey breast for us. I'm making 2 small pans of cornbread dressing ...one for church and one for us...and will do fresh cranberry relish as well...for our Thursday I plan on doing turnip greens, sweet potatoes, tomato aspic and just home canned condiments...like pickled green beans, etc..

But I used the last of the persimmons the other day and made 4 small loaves of persimmon bread. I like it better than pumpkin bread..I put in dried cranberries as well.

I also made a buttermilk pie.

I lucked out yesterday. Last year I got a set of light up redbirds for Christmas yard decorating. They had some dachshunds but when I went back a week later to get them, they were sold out so on our monthly shopping yesterday, we stopped by Big Lots on the chance they had some and they had one set of the dogs left. We are setting them and the redbirds up today on our porch railing. Photos will come later. 

Monday was a SUPERMOON...last one this large was in 1948. So I did manage to get a good photo before the clouds moved in.
I loves these next photos of the moon behind the clouds.


Busy time of the year for us...

I thought I would close with this Scripture that pertains to the Supermoon.

Luke21:25- 28 "And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring. Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth; for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the SON of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh."

It's amazing how much can change in a few years. And seems time speeds up as you age. I promised to put up photos of the beginning of o...
