Happy Fall Y'all


Ok, so it may not be official as in I have not heard the weather person on the news say it is fall yet, (maybe he did and I just missed it) but it feels like it to me. There is a crispness in the air, Halloween and Thanksgiving decorations are in the stores and on many front porches already too. I have been updating my recipe blog, Cricket's Cafe with all kinds of fun yummy fall recipes and......I saw a few trees have already turned in Lambs Canyon.

I LOVE FALL!!!! It is my favorite time of the year. Cool but not cold and the snow hasn't hit yet. The colors are so beautiful. What an amazing Artist Our Heavenly Father is!! Fall is truly a time to slow down, sit back and look at all the beauty around us. It is not an accident my friends, it is a GIFT!

As we watch the season change, delight in all of our most favorite fall recipes and start thinking about the fun holidays ahead I hope each of us take a few moments everyday to reflect on all the blessings we have. I know we each have our own challenges and they sometimes can be overwhelming and stressful but......I bet if you just take a few moments and think about all the positives in your life you will come with more than you thought.

Reach out to your family, friends, neighbors, coworkers and yes...even strangers! Tell them, show them, serve them. Let them know you appreciate them, love them and care for them. Put a smile on a strangers face. My good friend Regina has a saying....
 "Be the best part of someone else's day"

I just love that!!!

Happy Fall Y'all!!
