I went to stay with my granddaughter for a few days. Her other grandparents had dropped her off at home a bit before I got there. I walk in and the record player is going. Take a few seconds to listen to what a 14 year was listening to while studying.
I offered tea I brought with me she pulls out her teapot and lovely cups, and we catch up. I could not ask for a nicer afternoon with my sweet granddaughter. I did early morning dog walking to give her some extra free time before being dropped at school. A bonus sunrise.Their neighborhood is so pretty. They are in a private development, so it is quiet. Taking my grand to school, we have to go over a covered bridge that creaks and that tourist line up to take pictures of the beauty. She had a sweet carved pumpkin on the porch. And a creepy sight at their mailboxes lol.I also treated myself to a new book. The bookstore recommended it basted on the last book I read. But all great things must come to an end her parents came home, and I headed back to my house. I wanted to use up the one apple I had and the puff pastry cups I bought by accident. I topped with whipped ricotta and drizzled some maple syrup.
Very yummy if I do say so myself.
It is our first fireplace of the season. We are tucked in and catching up on a couple of shows.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Lovely to spend time with your precious granddaughter. Your apple creation looks wonderful and makes me hungry!! Have a pleasant Friday.
It amazed me that sweet miss B was listening to that music. You had a nice visit with her and oh how I love covered bridges. I remember once my parents took us to Vermont and New Hampshire just to see covered bridges. We had a map and that was all we did that trip. It was fun. Your fire did look cozy. None here yet, but we are stocked up with wood. Have a great weekend! Janice
It’s all perfect-beautiful music, a cup of tea, a covered bridge, that dessert, a good book, and a fire - ahhhhh. It doesn’t get any better than that.
That was not at all what I expected to hear! Today is to be in the 60s I think but I'll bundle up and do the yard work that needs doing now at the end of the growing season. We need more rain!
What lovely time with your grand girl! Precious!
I would expect nothing less than that beautiful music to be being played by beautiful Miss B...or to be playing on an actual phonograph. A wonderful world of music and tea to walk into. "From another time" indeed.
your joy is so apparent and i am so happy you shared it with us!! there are so many awesome teens out there, they don't get the credit they deserve!! she clearly has great taste in music!!
Hi, very nice blog, I am new here. I follow you 370, maybe follow back?

This sounds like such a beautiful and wonderful time. And good for her on that music! Yummy food and cute pumpkins too!
What a lovely visit….happy weekend, Virginia
That is too funny the music Miss B was listening to on a record player! Most kids would not even know how to use a record player..even if they knew what one was 🤦♀️
Dessert sounds yummy!
