P is for Pumpkin

A visit to Almonte could not be done without a stop for lunch at Robin's Nest Tea-room. The food is fresh, tasty and home-made. They even make their own pies there. Gary came along today so we stopped in for a sandwich and soup. No dessert though because look what I brought home from Bob the Baker's.....pumpkin pie. YUMMO!


Bob was at the bakery today so we had a nice long chat and I thanked him for his support and a lot of  laughs. He's a great guy, an amazing baker and I will be sure to continue to drop in for more calories when I am in Almonte and in need of calories...ya, right.

Then off to Ottawa with the last order for Pet Valu in the Glebe. Another fine bunch of people work there and I will miss them so much. I loved dealing with them. We always have a great chat and Manager, Sue is a sweetie.

The last of the orders should be finished tonight. I'll be baking in between bites of pumpkin pie. That means 1 extra mile to walk tomorrow.

I ever so quietly added the whipped cream to my pie but amazingly enough, the same ears that never hear you when you yell "Get off the table", or "Stop throwing litter on the floor" can hear the whipped cream hit the pie and be in your face in 2 seconds. Looks like Cali gets it. She who snoozes...looses.

"Don't gag...she had her own spoon"              

Here I go with more dishes to show you.
I don't always buy 'white' but these do need vanilla ice cream and kaluha in them.
This little guy came in from the garden today. Seems like yesterday I sat  him out there.
Oh well, there is nothing more beautiful than the Autumn leaves.

hugs, Deb
