November 4th! Election Day and my daughter's birthday! What a day! We are going to get supper from Pizza Hut. I can save 20 percent there by ordering online for the first time so what the heck! I'm going to make a birthday cake - box mix Devils Food (my favorite and Cris' too) and then I add 3 eggs and a can of cherry pie filling to that. Serve with frosting or cool whip and dang good. NO! You do not add oil or water - just eggs and pie filling. Trust me on this - it works. I didn't fall off the turnip truck yesterday - although I did fall off the pumpkin truck last month but that is another story - thankfully without photography or medical bills.

It's a fine day here in the Adirondacks. Supposed to be 60 degrees today. We are blessed! That is great for November. Coco and I had a hike on the mountain this morning and it was just lovely in the woods. I keep an eye out for hunters but I've never seen any on our property but do wear my red jacket just in case. We came across a dead gray squirrel on our hike. That was our only wildlife encounter today. Hopefully something will scavenge that carcass away today so I don't have to pick it up.

Well, best get that birthday cake started!
