I Love Fall and Randomness!

I am totally loving this weather! Today will be in the high 60s --perfect for my new sweater my mom got for me and lounging in comfy pants. Makes me kinda feel like Mr. Rogers.

I love Fall! Having grown up in Arizona, there are 2 seasons pretty much...hot and hotter. When I moved to Nashville, I absolutely fell in love with Fall...the leaves, the smells, the festivals, the pumpkins. PA offers a lot of the same and I LOVE it!

Here's the view from where I am sitting in my livingroom right now:

Here's my "other" view: ♥

I've been into the ease of cooking with my crockpot lately and appreciate the time it frees up for me to spend the day with Lily, but still feed my family. A favorite has been chili! 

Yesterday, I tried a new recipe.

 My husband doesn't like pork at all. I, on the other hand, love pork --roasts, chops, pulled--you name it.
I woke up craving pulled pork...must be the thought of Fall and missing my Tennessee days, so I had to figure out something to make us all happy!

One of my favorite bloggers, Carissa, posted a recipe:  Yummy "pulled" chicken instead of pork awhile back that I bookmarked to try. Yesterday was JUST the day!

My picky eating husband loved it!
Andrew did too and my pulled pork craving was satisfied!

Today's crockpot fun is cooking as I type.

George has been craving beef stew. :)

Soon, I have to head to the store or the bakery for bread to go with it, but supper is smelling so yummy!

I've also decided I'm going to take the plunge and participate in one of the these 30 Day Blog Challenges...(I like this one because it's lighthearted!)

One of the 1st blogs I followed is by a sweet girl, Katie, who is studying to be a teacher and I love reading her blogs about that journey, remembering the excitement of gathering resources, student teaching, preparing for the 1st classroom. She's hosting a link for this challenge and you can find her by clicking on her button if you're interested!
