the other day when I was talking with my daughter, she mentioned they were having zucchini basil soup for their supper…

made me realize that I hadn’t made it for ages, so then I was craving it, lol…

yesterday morning I started it… it is a simple recipe with just a few ingredients…

after cooking it, it was blended and made a delicious smooth soup…

cooked some chicken thighs to add to it…

so tasty…

another lovely walk along the Harte Trail on Remembrance Day afternoon…

it felt like -4° Celsius and there was a bit of wind although the sun was shining brightly…

we walked a little bit past the distance we did last time…

we spotted two deer and watched them for a few minutes before they bounced along the ditch beside the path…

we were dressed for the cold and were very comfortable… then this person passed us;-)…

I guess different strokes for different folks…

skeptical…

picked up an amaryllis when I was out grocery shopping on November 8th…

I am a bit sceptical whether it will do anything as it did not look very good…

the bulb was shrivelled with some dead bits at the top…

but, I planted it and put it close to a heating vent and have my fingers crossed;-)…

a friend dropped by for a visit on Saturday morning and brought me a few books…

a bit later my housemate and I went to Globosapiens to pick up some additional books… this time I chose some new releases as well as some of the authors I usually read…

the Halloween decorations had filled up most of the stairs as there were very few books left to read…

I took this (⬆️) photo on November 1st before the decorations came down…

now, the stair library is booming once again;-)… woohoo… I haven’t been enjoying the current read, so may just put that one aside and start on one of these;-)…
