Into The Wild

I missed my girl so much, I drove up the mountain today to spend a few hours with the beauty.  After a nice lunch, she drove us in her jeep (like a wild woman) up a dirt, rocky road to look at the aspen trees.

I was a week too late to see the spectacular color.  Darn the windy week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                  We only spotted one critter.  I think the hunters are out scouting the area.

Lovely Day!!!

Cloudy Day = Happy Day

Finally some clouds in the sky.  I get tired of always having a sunny sky.  Maybe fall is here.

                                                    Pas De Chat enjoying the day.......

               
                                                     Now for some DEXTER time....

         Probably only the productive thing I did today.  A recipe from my friend Mary.  

HAM 'N' CHEESE POTATO BAKE

1 package (24 ounces) frozen hash browns

2 cups fully cooked cubed ham

3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 small onion (I used green onions)

2 cups sour cream

2 cans condensed cheddar cheese soup, undiluted

pepper

In a large bowl combine potatoes, ham, 1/2 cheese and onion.  In another bowl combine sour cream, soup, and pepper.  Add to potato mixture and mix well.

Transfer to a greased 3 qt. baking dish.  Sprinkle with remaining cheese.  Bake, uncovered at 350 degrees for 60 minutes or until bubbly and potatoes are tender.  Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

It was yummy and perfect for a cool weather day.

 It's "Project Runway" night.  To honor the designers here is an antique lace dress collar.... and to honor fall, notice the spider web detail in the middle of each flower.  Such intricate hand made work!
