1. What's your favorite fall scent? Would we find this in or around your home right now? 

I went through all of my candles several months ago and took a box of them to Amber when we visited in June. I really like a drizzle melt from Swan Creek Candle Co. called Roasted Espresso. I am also a big fan of Christmas Balsam candles. 

2. October is Country Music Month...are you a fan of country music? Do you have a favorite country artist? Ever been to Nashville? In terms of lifestyle are you more country mouse or city mouse? 

I do like some songs and a few singers, but for some reason I have never been a big fan. I have never been to Nashville. Hard to say, I could be a little of each mouse. 

3. How about 'country cooking'? (loosely defined as rich flavors, familiar foods, large portions, often fried, and often associated with the southern region of the US of A)?  

chicken and dumplings-fried chicken-shrimp and grits-biscuits and gravy-mac and cheese-fried green tomatoes-cornbread-collard or turnip greens-deviled eggs-'barbecue'-gumbo-banana pudding 

Which of the foods listed is your favorite? Any on the list you haven't tried or would say a firm no thank you to if offered? 

I can't really say that we do any country cooking. We both grew up with Bohemian food like pork, dumplings and sauerkraut. 

4. What's something that always has a positive impact on your mood? 

You all know the answer to this one, it is James. We were there on Saturday and I will write a post about my birthday celebration with them. He baked some chocolate chip cookies so he was eating one and they were very good. Not sure if they were made from scratch. 

5. As we say so long to September share a noun, a verb, and an adjective that tells us something about how that month looked for you. 

I have no clue how to answer this. 

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

We left for Montana on Tuesday. This post will show up but I'm not sure I can link it but I will try in the hotel room in the morning. I also will not be around reading posts while I'm gone. Thank you for understanding.

Also for those of you that do not know this, I posted this on Facebook recently. My MRI of my pelvis, which the doctor had done because of my leg pain, showed a cyst on my ovary and my colon was swollen. So now I have more issues to deal with. I called and set up appointments for when we get back. Like I've said before, this is not my year and I would appreciate your prayers. 

Thank you so much. 

Love, Debby
