Friday Fave Five

Posted on by

Susanne at Living to Tell the Story has begun a “Friday Fave Five” in which we share out five favorite things from the past week. Click on the button to read more of the details.

I am late to the computer today, but here we go:

1. The cooler temperatures of fall!!! We’re just starting to be consistently a little cooler here, though our change of seasons goes back and forth between old and new for several weeks.

2. My new purse! I had been looking for one for a while.

3. Good Christian radio stations. We’re so blessed to have not one but two here that I switch back and forth between. I especially like to listen to them as I am cooking or cleaning in the kitchen or as I am falling asleep at night.

4. Fall decorations that I just put out yesterday. I don’t decorate a lot for fall — not nearly as much as Christmas — but I like to have something of the season around. I didn’t show pictures of them since they are the same as last year’s here and here. I was getting tired of the idea of scarecrows til I pulled them out again and was reminded how cute they are.

5. Our ladies’ meeting Monday night making cards. It was actually rough to prepare for just in the since of being a super-busy day, but I enjoyed it a lot. Plus we had leftovers of the refreshments I made, so our family has been enjoying them all week (Frosted Banana Bars and Oatmeal Cookie squares — I can’t find an online recipe for those, but they are made from a recipe that used to be on oatmeal boxes, only pressed into bar cookies, and I add a powdered sugar glaze over the top.)

  1. I don’t decorate that much for fall, but blogland has got me going this year; however, it’s all inside, Outside looks a little silly in South Florida. I don’t do scary stuff, though. I like your door hanging.

  2. A new purse would definitely always make my faves list for any week! LOL. I love your little welcoming scarecrows. I don’t do a whole lot either. But I do like the have things here and there that bring in the wonderful rich fall colors. It’s hard to do a lot of decorating with so many little ones around.

  3. Hi-
    I’m new to the Friday Fave meme too – but how fun is it to think back over the week and reflect on the good things!
    I love how everyone is enjoying the autumn season – drinking hot drinks, lighting candles, and reading good books!

  4. Fabulous 5 Barbara. I’m glad it’s cooling down for you. Girl you really did need a new purse, I’m glad you found one to replace the old one before the handles tore all the way! LOL Enjoy your weekend…

  5. I think all of us have mentioned how much we’re loving this fall weather, Barbara. And more than one of the people I’ve visited are excited about a new purse, too! Gee. Maybe I should go shopping – I’ve been carrying the same ol purse around for four years now! LOL Love your list and I love this meme. It makes it especially nice that our sweet friend Susanne created it. 🙂
