Listening: My sleepyhead daughter has not emerged from her room , so it's quiet in the house....windows open...cool breeze....birds chirping and yummy Dunkin' Donuts blueberry muffin coffee brewing!
Loving: This past week, while trying at times, was a ton of fun! I got to help out in several classes. Precious little second graders practiced their adorable Halloween/Fall poems for fluency. Then, we recorded them using Croak.it! With the Croak.it! link we turned it into a QR Code. Precious little faces as they scanned their QR code and heard their own voice. Here is my post on Croak.it! and QR Codes.
Thinking: Really?!!!! Went to dinner with some friends last night.
Wanting: Ugggg! I'm not a candy kind of person, but Tootsie Rolls are my weakness! They must go! That and all the Halloween decorations to magically be put away.
Needing: Gotta get started on my speech! I've been asked by our local university to speak at their Teacher Induction ceremony. 250 student teachers plus their family and friends. I would love to hear some of your words of wisdom for these new teachers!
Yummy pin!
Carmel Apple Dip!
This is my "go-to" dish when I need something quick and yummy! It is super easy and a crowd pleaser.
Only 4 ingredients! If you click on the picture it will take you to the directions. These include powdered sugar. I've never used powered sugar. Just leave the cream cheese out for a bit and then spread it on a large plate!
While I was searching for the recipe and a picture . . . I found these! Same recipe, but in a jar! How cute are these?! I think I'm going to send these to my daughter's teachers! A little "happy" for the start of November and a new nine weeks! (Click on the picture and it will take you to the blog post.)
Head over to Farley's for some more Currently action! There are some really great yummy pin ideas!
Perfect timing with the holidays approaching.
Have a beautiful day!
oh yummy!! That dip looks amazing!! ... and as far as the Christmas tree... don't get me wrong, I love Christmas and all, but seriously we JUST had Halloween 2 days ago!!!
ReplyDeleteWe drove by today and more garland is up! Telephone poles decorated!
DeleteI started thinking about Christmas a little bit, but I sing in the church choir.
ReplyDeleteWe went to a "market day" today and many booths were playing Christmas music!

DeleteThe dip looks great! I must try that! I cannot believe the Christmas decorations that are appearing everywhere. Are we skipping Turkey Day?

Teachers Are Terrific!
I know! Target barely was pushing out the Halloween stuff and putting in Christmas! Back the truck up and give us some time to enjoy the other holidays!
DeleteI cannot stand seeing all the Christmas stuff out! It hasn't even been chilly yet. Any more, they blend all the holidays together! Merry Hallo-Thanks-Mas to all!
ReplyDeleteKrazy Town
Too funny! We were a bit surprised to see all the decorations!
DeleteSure wish I was your daughter's teacher! LOVIN' that dip! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree with you more! The Target by my home was putting out all the Christmas merchandise before Halloween had even arrived. To top it off, today I was shopping and heard a woman singing Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer. Good luck with your speech! I'm sure you will be amazing!
