I've been really enjoying this wonderful weather in Illinois! The Farmers are almost done harvesting their crops and the festivals are in full swing! The walks out by our house have been so relaxing it has put me into a sluggish mode here lately!
I have been down to the creek even though the weeds and bugs are still thriving.
My son Sam decided to come down with me!

I did manage the other night to get out my Cricut Machine and cut a few little critters out of fabric and put them on t-shirts for little ones-I still have to sew around them but I thought I would share a few with you.
I HAD A LOT OF FUN! :)
TWEET ME!
LITTLE MONKEY!
OH DEER!

To finish up my fall~ish feeling, I made 3 loaves of Pumpkin Bread~it was soooo good!
PUMPKIN BREAD
Makes 3 loaves
1- 15oz can pumpkin puree 2 tsp. baking soda
4 eggs 1 1/2 tsp salt
1 c veg.oil 3tsp. of Pumpkin pie Spice (or more to taste)
3 c sugar 3 1/2 c all-purpose flour
2/3 c water
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour 3 7x3 inch loaf pans.
In a large bowl, mix together pumpkin,eggs, oil, water and sugar until well blended. In a separate bow, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt and pumpkin pie spice. Stir the dry ingredients into the pumpkin mix until just blended. Pour into prepared pans
Bake for about 50 min. Loaves are done when toothpick inserted comes out clean.
***Important Grandma Hint! Let loaves cool for around 15 min. then take out of pans and put on wire rack to cool completely then wrap in wax paper first then in foil~ for best results--eat after wrapped overnight! :) YUM! It will be very moist (even the crust!)
ENJOY!
I hope you are enjoying your fall season as well! Bye,bye for now....
xxxooo rusti.
