Richard Osman, The Impossible Fortune. I was really looking forward to this new book about the Thursday Murder Club. Sadly, I did not find it nearly as enjoyable as the earlier ones in the series. |

Early October Treats
 |
We have never before bought Halloween candy so early! It’s very good and might not last until the Trick-or-Treaters get here. We will probably have to buy more. I do like Snickers bars. |

Spaghetti casserole with lots of cheesy crumb topping. |

Warm sunny weather is lasting into October. No frost so far. |
New Plants in my Window

Yep, halloween everywhere and I love it. Great selection of candy. LOL My daughter gave me her recipe of spaghetti casserole and I just couldn't make it her way. This looks so darn good. You new plants are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteMy neighborhood is just starting to get some Halloween decorations, which really means it's Fall. I am so bummed that you didn't really enjoy the new Richard Osman book; I have so enjoyed this series!
ReplyDeleteHmm, the spaghetti! Oh, and all the creepy stuff - fun time of the year!
ReplyDeleteI have not been able to check out even the first Richard Osman book. It is THAT popular here. I can't even put it on hold for at least three months, I was told.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen any Halloween decorations, but I plan to check out the neighborhood next weekend.
My favorite in that candy dish is anything Reese's or Kit Kat.
Looks like your new succulents are doing quite well.
I would never dare to buy Halloween candy this early; it would never last until the end of the month. You can have all the Snickers and I'll take the peanut butter cups.
ReplyDeleteClimate change might not be so bad for all of you up north. It may send us moving up that way...Canada sure looks good right now.
I'm reading the new Thursday Murder Club right now. About a 1/3 of the way through. It's good to be back with these characters again. I wonder what you didn't enjoy about it, but I guess authors are allowed to be off a bit. And it's a good thing you have some chocolate treats because as I watched this episode I craved chocolate. Perhaps you did too Mae. Happy weekend.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a good Halloween combo package. I don't get it till I have to -- or at least, not open it. Rick's favorite is Snickers -- I like them too. But never seen yellow Snickers. I like Mounds best!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry The Impossible Fortune was a dissappointment. Hopefully your next read will be better! Oh yes, those Snicker bars are the best! I've not made a Spaghetti casserole but it looks delicious! You certainly have a green thumb!
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteI have that book on hold at the library, sorry to hear you did not enjoy the book. The casserole looks yummy. Halloween candy would not last in my house. Pretty flowers and plants. Have a great weekend.
I have not bought Halloween candy and I am not likely to. We won't be handing out any this year. I hope you have a great week!
ReplyDelete@Cindy — You sound as if you really dislike Halloween. Did you have a bad experience?
