YUM....It's Pumpkin Time!

Captain Man and I did take last Sunday morning off and had brunch with some friends.  We decided to enjoy good food and mimosas with friends who were celebrating, along with Captain Man, birthdays.  Happy Birthday Captain Man!!!  What a nice reprieve!   We enjoyed good company and good food, if only for a few hours.  We had way too much food...quiches, bacon, pumpkin scones with pumpkin cream cheese and pumpkin muffins.  Yep, it is that time of year again to savor pumpkin and pumpkin spice, which I love.  Pumpkin pie, pumpkin bread, pumpkin ravioli, roasted pumpkin, pumpkin soup...sooooo good.

Last year, while visiting my daughter, we passed a pumpkin market.  So we stopped and they had the most amazing pumpkins there.  All sorts of shapes and colors....They were beautiful.  So I took several pics and wanted to share....

They almost look like gourds, but we were told nope, they are pumpkins

And you thought pumpkins were only orange!!!

Different shapes and sizes

Striped ones too!

White pumpkins???

And some with warts?







Now I am in the mood for some pumpkin delishousness!!

I Hate Dusting!

Captain Man and I are looking at each other and wondering what in the heck happened to the time!!!!  It is November, and we are working our butts off trying to get the boat ready to go.  I only have 11 more days of work, woo hoo :), but we are not close to being done with the boat.  Captain Man is going every day to work on Kittywampus, and I go on Saturdays and Sundays, mostly to clean up and vacuum.  I can believe all the dust...if I did not vacuum each weekend, it would be 3 inches thick by now on everything.


sanding, which means more vacuuming


Kittywampus now has propellers!  The outside of the boat looks great.  She has new bottom paint and the black bottom looks good on her.  And today, I gave her a much needed bath.  So,  things are progressing, although not as fast as Captain Man and I would like.  But we will get there!!!!  We will!


New Props!

With new bottom paint

She is looking good from the outside!
