Happy Friday. I forgot to share a recipe post yesterday, that I'll probably save for next week. But today for my 5 on Friday, I thought I'd share a bit of Fall...since it is the first official day. ;) And I'll share a different quick and easy recipe too.
ONE
This first day of Fall came in stormy and rainy here in the northwoods. A perfect morning for some coffee by candlelight. It's since cleared up this afternoon and the sun has come out. I love this time of year so much!
TWO


I love this time of year because the moon seems like it starts to do magical things, more than any other time of year.
THREE




Another reason I find this time of year so special is that the leaves start turning all their beautiful colors and transforming the world around us.
FOUR






And this time of year to me means many cozy thoughts of warm sweaters, hot drinks to sip, snuggling under a blanket with a good book, and of course Halloween to come!
FIVE
And I thought I'd finish my 5 with this easy and yummy recipe for pizza crescents. They make a great after school snack for kiddos - or even a small meal if you wanted to add a salad and maybe some fruit. A perfect warm Fall snack.
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. On a cookie sheet unroll store bought crescent rolls and add some pepperoni and mozzarella sticks cut in half to each one.
Roll then up and I even fold over the ends a bit to help keep the cheese inside.
Melt a couple of Tbsp of butter and brush over the rolls
Sprinkle with some garlic powder and Italian seasoning - or whatever pizza flavors you like and bake for about 10 mins or until golden brown.
They should come out nice and hot and melty with the cheese even bubbling!
Serve alongside some warm marinara for dipping.
Other than photos from my kitchen all other credit goes to pinterest. I'm linking with FAST blog for Five on Friday.












Hello,
ReplyDeleteSweet fellow fall loving friend!
Happy Fall!!!!
I love the images you shared here.
And I will be passing the recipe on to Peyton!
Have a cozy weekend. : )
Thanks my sweet kindred Fall spirit Billie Jo! ;) xoxo
DeleteGorgeous photos! I love the moon shots.
ReplyDeleteI think your pizza crescents look yummy. I'll be trying them!
Thanks Mari! I bet Alaina and Ruby would love the pizza crescents! ;) xoxo
DeleteLovely photos especially the ones of the full moon, amazing how it looks. Cx
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the poem you shared! We've actually been under a heat advisory the last 2 days, feels more like the end of August than September. Hope you are having a wonderful cozy, fall weekend!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely impression of autumn. Autumn is somewhat different down here in the southern hemisphere, much less colour and is mostly typified by a darkening of the skies and the event of the April rains which bring all the plants out of dormancy (Winter is the growing season in my corner of the planet). It also farewells summer which is always something to mourn.
ReplyDeleteRight now, summer is moving from your side to our side and I am so excited to see the grey lifting and the sun coming out once more.
A lovely recipe that has me thinking about delving into my freezer to see if I have some pastry lying around that could be wrapped around some salami and cheese. Great idea and I'm pretty sure they are delicious as the mere thought has me salivating - I need lunch.
Thanks for sharing these moments and that inpsirational recipe.
Best wishes,
Liz
Thanks Liz! And thanks for visiting. It is so fun to think about the fascinating differences in how our seasons compare to each other. I'm actually ready for cool weather once again. Glad you liked the recipe! Blessings to you. xo
DeleteSuch a great post. Totally sums up my favorite time of year.
ReplyDeleteGoing to try those great pizza snacks the next time we play dominoes.
Love to you, Sweet One
