An Orange Day

Sunrise

Trying a pattern from Whiskers & Wool for a pumpkin coaster and adding a Halloween-y touch.
Cauliflower & chickpea curry for lunch.
Roasted sweet potatoes with cornbread for dinner.
Sunset
Cozy kitty.
Today is the Day of Arafat and a day of fasting for Muslims.
Tomorrow is the first day of Eid Al Adha
and Zack's 14th birthday.
We are off school for 5 days.
Yay!

Happy Thursday!

    Enjoy your time off! :)

    Your lunch and dinner are making me hungry as I sit here at work with nothing to eat this day.

    Loved the sunrise photo of the sun peeking through the clouds - stunning.

    Lovely dishes especially with the sweet potatoes and cornbread; very healthy for diabetes type 2.

    Happy fasting....does that mean you don't eat at all or just certain foods. I sure could stand to "fast" a bit! LOL! Enjoy your holiday and happy birthday to Zach!
    Your photos are so gorgeous and I love that little pumpkin coaster with the face! Too cute!
    We've had great weather in the 80's and dry and I've been outside making up for the Summer when I wasn't. But it's ending tomorrow and now they have freeze warnings out and rain is coming. I like variety and now I can have fires in the fireplace and hot cocoa etc. I might even get more crocheting and needlework done! LOL!
    I can't wait to see all your creativity while you're off. Take care, sweetie! Enjoy!

    Happy Birthday to Zack!

    OH, your lunch and dinner was so YUMMY!! I love curries but have never tried a chickpea and cauliflower one before. Must do that soon.

    Beautiful sunrise and sunset photos and your coaster is adorable!

    Jingles looks so relaxed and content in that pic. Cute!

    Enjoy your five days off! xo

    Such a cute coaster!! Your lunch and dinner look so good! I love curry, but every time I make it, it is watery tasting. Any good tips? Have a lovely day! xo Heather
