Welcome back lovely lady, thanks for visiting! 😊

Thank you, she is a pretty tree. Yes, you are absolutely correct about not cooking on the wood stove yet this winter. We've only just started lighting fires this week and I'm still using the barbecue until we're inundated with snow and brutal cold. Today was pretty and bright but the wind was not nice at all, just cut right through you every time you went outside or opened the door to let the dogs in/out. I'm looking forward to trying to bake some stuff on/in the wood stove; someday we'll have a wood burning/propane cook stove to work with, just have to wait until the funds are there before we get it and then it'll be neat learning how to cook/bake with that as well. I'm looking forward to that. &#128522

I've made roasts using my cast iron both on and in the wood stove last winter, though I never had the guts to try cookies or cakes, so that's my goal this winter, figuring out how to bake something in/on the wood stove. 😊

I've got to go tidy up now that I've let supper settle and relaxed a few minutes, so I'll say goodbye for now and chat again soon. 😊

God bless you and your wonderful family. Have an awesome day my fabulous friend! 😊
