September CupboardScape

Happy first weekend of September

my friends.

Today I wanted to share with you 

my September CupboardScape.

 

Butter molds.

A prim Apple cider jar.

Butter mold up close.

Another close up.

My prim pumpkin fella.

Created him years ago.

Gotta love that sweet smile.

He is happy he is out for the season.

His tag reads~ Gone With the Frost.

My lil girl print.

Sorry but it seems blurry to me. UGH

An antique bonnet and to the right

an apple butter paddle.

This display in one of my many baskets.

The basket in my trencher.

A long wood spoon.

If you can see the theme in this...

well most of the items would have been

used in the making of apple butter.

Except for the butter molds.

There is no butter in an apple butter recipe.

It just refers to being apple butter because of

the consistency of the apples used in the recipe.

Its really a fruit spread.

Also just added in some Autumn items

like the mum, pumpkin man and pic

for some Autumn color.

I imagine one of our foremother's

wearing her bonnet stirring the

apples with her paddle to make her butter.

In other news,

the endoscopy procedure my mom had

on Thursday only revealed a small polyp

in her throat which the surgeon said was

nothing to worry about.

Nothing else was found,

so back to square one one why she is losing blood.

She had another blood test yesterday,

but we wont know the results until Monday.

Monday she has an appointment to see

the second orthopedic surgeon  

regarding her dislocated shoulder...

and whether or not surgery for that should happen.

My SIL underwent a heart test.

She has two arteries completely blocked.

So as long as she can

can have the heart valve surgery,

she can then be put back on 

the kidney transplant list.

She goes for another test at the end of September.

It is a radioactive test of some kind,

so my brother cannot go see my mom.

That same week my sister

 is going back to North Carolina,

then to Phoenix, so that leaves me to see

my mom that week. 

So I am taking this weekend off from seeing my mom.

Will do some much needed house cleaning,

laundry and some stitchy time. YAY.

Yesterday it was so windy here

that we lost internet and our cable service.

It came back on about an hour

after losing it, so not that bad.

Their were white caps on the river around

2-3 feet because of the wind.

Then yesterday just before dinner my daughter

calls to tell me Mikayla's dorm is on fire.

WHAT

Apparently someone decided to put something 

on the stove and forgot about it.

Mikayla and a few friends she met

were on the third floor playing a game in the lounge.

Mikayla smelled smoke and went to the door

which houses the small kitchen.

She could smell something burning,

but the door was locked.

She pulled the fire alarm.

Thankfully she did because there was a fire.

2 hours later she was able to go back in.

Thank goodness she was there.

It could have been worse.

Afterwards I said to my daughter....

did that bring back memories?

If you remember, my own granddaughter

Mikalya left popcorn on the stove which started

a fire in my daughters house. 

Well off to eat some breakfast.

Hope everyone enjoys their weekend!

First September Weekend Blessings To All!
