Moving right on into Octo”BER”🎃

We have now moved from Septem”BER” into Octo”BER” so time for some reflection and a new monthly Bucket List!

I did not make it to a fruit orchard yet but do plan to this month if nothing intervenes so that bucket list item of reflection will have to hold off for a little while. However, I did make the honey cinnamon butter, and it turned out great! We made some bread to go with it as well!

If anyone else would like to try it, it is pretty simple and said to be the recipe for the “Texas Roadhouse Copy Cat Cinnamon Honey Butter”.

½ cup salted butter (softened)	¼ cup powdered sugar
1 Tablespoon honey	½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon	1/8 teaspoon sea salt

Once you have gathered all the ingredients then you blend them with a mixture well and fully and serve as is. If placed in the refrigerator it will harden quiet a bit compared to served at room temperature.

Now, after checking out this new list for Octo”BER” I know I have always wanted to visit an authentic pumpkin patch and enjoy some sort of festival revolving around it. I do hope to do that this year during October or maybe even in November around Thanksgiving. Cozy blankets, warming fires, fall treats, and Halloween crafts are my things! I also enjoy a good pumpkin carving creation from time to time!

Now for you, check out this thrilling & spooky list to complete as much as you can before this haunting month comes to an end:

-          Snuggle up in your favorite time of year blanket

-          Take a bike ride

-          Make a Halloween craft

-          Collect leaves and paint them

-          Paint and/or carve a pumpkin

-          Tell spooky stories over a fire

-          Host a soup night and exchange recipes
