Fall Sundays

I stitched a little this weekend. It is always fun to put some new colors in.


I love the pinks.


We hiked on Sunday morning. It was pretty warm. This guy was enjoying the warm day. Do you see him on the right, on top of the sign?


I did some more cooking this Sunday. I made a new soup called roasted apple and white aged cheddar soup. I found the recipe on the Closet Kitchen blog. The recipe called for apple juice or cider which I didn't have so I substituted some beer. It was yummy.
I also made a batch of crockpot Indian Pudding. I love this old time dessert. The 5 minutes of whisking is worth it. It is served hot so the ice cream melts. Yum!


Wednesday the 13th is National Indian Pudding day. Maybe I need to make another batch?!


Have a wonderful week my friends!

I love Indian pudding! I just made it on Sunday for our cookbook club. The recipe was from a 19th century cookbook, and involved 20 minutes of stirring in a double boiler before it went in the oven for two hours. Unfortunately it was in the fridge overnight (I prefer it warm). I'll have to try the crockpot version.

I must check out the Indian Pudding as I don't even know what it is. This is definitely a cozy Fall post!

I've never heard of Indian pudding but it looks delicious. It's good to add colours to a design, it brings the project to life for me.
