Yankee Candles Burning

That’s right only two days after and here is another post. Tony mentioned that I might want to consider blogging more frequently in shorter installments.
First order of business… the prizes from the long ago from the second post about the trip to Moorhead. I had posted a photo and asked my readers to guess what the photo was and why I took it.
ANSWER IS! Melany’s father’s cousin’s house!!! So both Laurel and Melany got it right. (and Mary also, but as she said, she was there when I took the photo.) And why did I take it… because I was disappointed I did not get to see Melany while in Dryden, so I wanted her to know I was thinking of her while in Dryden.
And now onto the prizes… Mary got a cash prize, *wink wink* as Katherine says…
and for Laurel I sent her a copy of the cool animated Canadian alpha that Melany had gifted me with once… you can see an example to the right…the waving “M”… a link to Melany’s blog.
For Melany… I am sending her a zip package of some of my favorite, (and hopefully will become favourites of her)… scrapping freebies. Totally legal, no pirated items.
Now for a quick turn of what’s on my mind…. the weather is totally terrific… cold, blustery and I am thinking autumn… the leaves are turning, I have new Yankee Candle tartlets burning (Autumn Wreath, Sage and Citrus, and Pumpkin Pie, yummy) and hockey is starting (Amanda has practice tomorrow), and Katherine and Sarah are going to Cuba with the Sir Winston Churchill CVI Senior Concert Band (Katherine’s fundraising efforts can be seen here.)
My mom is moving to Grand Marais. Melinda and Earl are coming for Christmas. Okay okay time to go pick Tony up from work, and I need to save something for tomorrow. *wink wink*

BETH–if you EVER find yourself wandering through the Knoxville, TN area – - I’ll show you a house or two that you can photograph and post on the blog for a contest. LOL!
Love the updates, promises of tortellini soup recipes, and eveyrthing else that makes your blog so precious!
Hope all is well. . . I believe our buddy Melany has linked you on my new blog. Which, by the way, has a new edition of the video of Caroline. I believe it still works!!
Hugs from the southeast!!

Wheee! Prizes for meeeeee! Thanks again, that was really sweet. I fully did not expect to see another blog entry when I clicked on it today – what a nice surprise!
I look forward to more regular instalments of your adventures! Can’t wait for the next post!
