Pumpkin, Skulls & Goblins!!

Well, I cannot believe I am saying this, "Salem is BEAUTIFUL!" The sun, the leaves, everything! It hasn't rained for awhile and I have been taking full advantage of it! Going to nearby pumpkin patches, such as Baumans (www.Baumanfarms.com) , and this little one off of 62nd Ave and Hazelgreen Rd. Such a surprise!  15cent/lb  pumpkins!!

Today we went to the library and took full advantage of the free preschooler storytime./ Sawyer (3 this month) wasn't too interested in it until we went into The Discovery Room. Where now they are doing Transportation!  LOVE free activities! I have included a link to PortlandPerks.Com where you can buy four full passes to Bauman's for 24$ (48$ value).

Today I made, wow. Almond Sugar Cookies with a Chai Tea Glaze. INSANE!! I bought a bag of sugar cookie mix,  (Thank you Costco!) pretended I was making a normal batch but added Almond extract. When they were cooled, I made a glaze made with strong, (3 tea bags for 1/2 cup hot water) steeped chai tea, powdered sugar, and almond extract. So spicy and Auntumish!  Is that a word? Well, until next time. Soak up your sunshine..
