Another weekend

Good morning to you, Tuesday people!

As per always, may you all have had a lovely weekend.

The hubster and I had a good one.

The weekends, always so welcome. Peter and I started Sarturday with a long walk in the neigborhood. We ended said walk at a brand new coffee shop close to our house, yes another new one.

We were very pleased and we will return.

 

Saturday morning was a mild one as we left the house around 8AM.

As you can see a lot of colors are lingering on, buuuut pretty soon the trees will be all barren.

The morning fog is beautiful!

I love this natural filter.

And so calm!

YES! It is also Christmas prep deluxe in the little house by the golf course.

And more than that, some Christmas treats are back to play for yet another Christmas-go-around.

I made the first glögg martinis of the season on Friday night.

Friends, these cocktails are like Christmas in one’s mouth. YUM!!

Why just once? WE repeated said martini Saturday night. Peter broke out our Solo stove as well, so we hung around the “camp fire” on the deck. SO cozy.

No it was not cold, on Saturday the mercury reached 71 F (22C). Our fall is very mild this year.  Sure, it got cold fast as the sun disappeared, but still ...

Nowadays we CAN buy red glögg in many stores.  BUT there's no white glögg to be found at all.  SO, one has to make said glögg at home.  Easy peacy! And also, so good.

Another season, another glögg martini!

Anyway, it was super cozy hanging by the fire.

I hope we’ll get more late afternoons like that before it gets too cold.

 

I shot these pics around 5PM.

But one martini is enough.  Red wine for the win, always.

And I do like my seasonal wine glasses so much!

Sunday, just regular scheduled, boring stuff.

You know, like grocery shopping.

In the afternoon we watched such a cheesy movie, My Oxford Year. Total cheese bomb, would not really recommend.

It was like a Christmas movie without being one. Snoooooozzzeee …

However, Christmas movies ARE supposed to be cheese fests, that is their entire purpose. 

They are meant to be picked apart and to be super predictable. That is the whole, and fun, point with those movies.

Personally I cannot wait for this years X-mas movies (Netflix will drop a load on November, 15) …

WOW, we are going to be so critical while watching them!! HAHA.

But the Oxford one — don’t bother, folks.

Well, all y’all, now it is Tuesday and a new week is upon us.

I wish you a good one!!
