There are many things I am thankful for. Sometimes life changes come along and remind me just how blessed I really am. I welcome the times that I can be thankful for...
My faith and my Jesus
Tried & true friends
Family - inlaws and outlaws too!
A wonderful husband
A sweet son
My home in the woods
A grandfather that I need as much as he needs me
Good health
The ability to give, even when I don't
My mama who takes care of all of us!
The beauty of a sunset on my drive home
The ability to do things I love - cook, design, photograph...
Sometimes. Life. Happens. But I am most thankful for the times when it does - and I stop and breathe - and thank God for what he has given to my life.
It's gonna be cold this weekend! Bundle up next to the fire and have a cup:
Hot Caramel Apple Cider
1/2 gal. apple cider
1/2 c. brown sugar, packed
1-1/2 t. cider vinegar
1 t. vanilla extract
4-inch cinnamon stick
6 whole cloves
1 orange, sliced
Optional: 1/2 c. apple jack liqueur
Garnish: 1/3 c. caramel ice cream topping
Combine all ingredients except topping in a slow cooker. Cover; cook on low setting for 5 to 6 hours. Strain; discard spices and orange. Serve in mugs, drizzling a teaspoonful of topping into each mug. Serves 16.
