Eat a Red Apple Day and Start the Advent Calendar!

It snowed this morning!  I love snow in small doses because it makes everything seem so clean and bright. Looking forward to having chili for dinner, sitting in front of the fireplace and waiting for more snow to fall. 

Today is eat a red apple day so am doing my part by eating a Washington State grown apple.  Growing up we had three apple trees, so I am partial to the green apples but a red one now and then is fun too.  Maybe I will make some apple crisp to have after the chili dinner.  Sounds good doesn't it?


Being December 1, today is the day to start the countdown to Christmas.  Here is a Norwegian way to countdown the days.  A small treat should go in each little shoe. 

Hope you have great day!
