30º ~ Dusty The Cat Burgler ~ Pickletini ~ Caramel Apples ~ Pumpkin Cheesecake



Good 30º frozen morning!!! All the grass is frozen and the whole top of the barn is ice!




10-21 "Telephone your station."


So, there is a 'cat burgler' named Dusty....
Dusty the cat is such an effective cat burglar that he has been given the alias Clepto by the neighbors that he steals from. If Dusty ever decides to organize the other neighborhood pets into a gang the crime rate in this area is going to go through the roof. Time to start a neighborhood watch.

Caramel Apple Day
 
Makes 10 caramel apples| Hands-On Time: 30m| Total Time: 1 hour

  1. Wash and completely dry the apples. Insert a wooden stick into the top end of each. Line a baking sheet with wax paper and set aside.

Yikes, you're frozen in this morning! I guess that's what they mean in that song about the frost being on the pumpkin (dang, can't remember the name of it - old brain, need new one). Thanks for sharing your morning with us :)
Cool and very foggy/misty early on down here. Jake was in one of his very rare modes, sniffed the air halfway down our block and turned around. I trust
his instinct (sniffer & hearing) more than I do my own, so we came back home. He has done that only a few times in all the years I've walked him.
Love the cat burglar video Sent the link to Spence and will send it to Freddy in my next email to him.
Have a great day and enjoy making that pumpkin cheese cake. (I saved the URL and will copy that recipe - thanks)
Hugs, Erika

Yes, obviously sounds like something was telling Jake to go the other way! Smart guy you have.
Got to check if I have pumpkin and cream cheese. xo

Good morning. It is warmer here than there. It is 44 degrees here but that is cool for us.
I had seen the cat bugler before but enjoyed it again. The Pickletini sounds gasley but it made me laugh also.
Before I forget again, when we stopped at All Star, we were looking at the Pinnacle Vodka when Cliff said, Look at this. It was a bottle of Pumpkin Vodka. he said that you would like that. It was a fifth, so let us know if you would like a bottle. The pumpkin cheesecake sounds wonderful. Of course any kind of cheesecake sounds wonderful to me. Patty
