Fall

This was quite possibly one of the most amazing weekends, weather wise, in recent memory. 80 degrees and sunny in October- nearly unheard of!! Kenny and I got our bikes out and rode a picture perfect trail around one of Madison's smaller lakes and through a nature preserve (the UW Arboretum). The leaves were a changin' and, oh everything was just perfect!

Enjoy the fall foliage! I feel truly blessed to live in much a wonderful city. After living in Tucson, AZ for college (which I may or may not blog about at a later date) I learned that my heart is truly with the magnificent Midwest. 

This was awesome- We happened upon some wild turkeys!!
Gobble, Gobble
I'm ready for Thanksgiving now!!
 
 
 
Even our bikes are in love!
Absolutely nothing better than capping the day off with a Schlitz and a cookie!

It's a Wonderful Life

What a wonderful weekend! Good company and great wine at the Wet Whistle Fest in Algoma, WI. Just a quick "36-hour road trip" with my sister, parents, and family friends. Didn't want it to end! But alas, back to the daily grind. Countdown to next weekend is on!
Started the weekend by making guacamole in my Butterfly Gold bowl (I don't think guacamole photographs well !!!) 

The oldest lighthouse in Wisconsin. I love how shabby it looks!

Mom's cork collection!
An abandoned bottle of "Naughty Girl" Delicious!
Found a neat antique store...The owner knew Mike and Frank from American Pickers! 

No antique store is complete without Pyrex. But seriously, between $65-$85 for these sets of four!!! I'd rather thrift!
Had to pass on this set of Primary bowls too $$$!
I love rusty bicycles!
