Weekend Watching

It’s impossible to get through a weekend without at some point watching Gabby try to decide what we should order at Starbucks. Β We can highly recommend the maple pecan muffins!

We have been watching mums appear on every corner

and adorable scarecrows riding through town.

There was a chance to watch beautiful fall colors reflecting on a pond before

the rain and fog rolled in, the fall colors disappeared and we were sent back indoors to have a wonderful afternoon watching Tea with the DamesΒ and Always at the Carlyle.

It was a great sports weekend to have your game face on, first watching Manchester United possibly save Jose Mourinho’s job for another week with an exciting comeback win over Newcastle UnitedΒ 

and then extra snacks were needed while watching both the New York Yankees even the series with the Boston Red Sox and Notre Dame defeat Virginia Tech.

  1. Tried the maple pecan muffins for the first time a couple of days ago and loved them. I think I am hooked! The scarecrow is simply adorable. 😊

    1. I love visiting all the local downtowns during the holidays to see the decorations and that scarecrow is my favorite so far. I’m definitely hooked, one morning they were already sold out and I almost drove to another Starbucks.😁

    1. Thank you!πŸ™‚ I love this time of year and the beautiful autumn days are going by too fast (even the days that are still warm and muggy!!). Gabby loves Starbucks and has already let me know we have to stop for a coffee and delicious maple pecan muffin this morning!😁

  3. Fun! Those maple muffins sound scrummy, and the shot with the turkey is hilarious. Great capture!

    1. Thank you!πŸ™‚ The turkey is absolutely obsessed! He shows up at daybreak and spends hours throughout the day fighting with his reflection.πŸ™‚

  4. Love the foggy tree. I too watched the Man U Newcastle match, the first half in despair, the second half in disbelief.

    1. Thank you!πŸ™‚ The Tottenham match that morning was not very exciting, even though they won, and then the first half of Manchester United really had me wondering why I wasn’t just watching college football. I was shocked to watch them make that comeback and am already looking forward to a win against Chelsea on the 20th.😁

  5. Those maple pecan muffins are tempting, but I think it is a six hour round trip for us to the nearest Starbucks – an expensive treat!
    Great photos once again, and yes, Mourinho seems to have extended his survival (for now…)

    1. Thank you!πŸ™‚ The Manchester United drama continues and while I was ready to completely give up at halftime, I’m now predicting a win against Chelsea on the 20th (if Mourinho is still coaching).😁 Six hours??? I don’t know if Gabby could survive without a Starbucks in every town we visit.😁

      1. I had to google the closest Starbucks – thought it would be in Nanaimo (six hour trip) but there is one in Port Alberni, way closer and only a three hour round trip! β˜•οΈ Still wouldn’t pass the Gabby survival test…
