Living in the country of NH, we often lose power, so the days leading up to Sandy were marked by frantic cooking and cleaning and preparing to be without power for days. There were no Generators anywhere so we were resigned to that fact that we would be power less but would have food we could heat on our Jet Boil hiking "stove". In the end we were without power for 5 hours. We were very fortunate. And I am grateful for that.
I spent most of the week chasing my tail, but we did manage to Carve the pumpkin in the dark, that was a great power outage activity. Marley really enjoyed wearing the head lap and scooping out the pumpkin guts. And she was very proud of her work. We also hung onto the seeds to replant them in our garden next year.
We had a wonderful time for Halloween, both parties and trick or treating went well. I am however new to the iPhone so, I forget to take pictures, but here are a few of Marley and Jeff and I on Halloween.
In order to get the top of Scarecrows Hat, he had to duck down, because of course the ruby red slippers had to be in the photo. (The Ruby Reds are finding a new home in Peabody I think)
Enjoy your week and I promise to get that Chili recipe and pictures up, as it was fantastic!
Namaste!
