It’s okay if the house isn’t perfect. It’s lived in, loved in, and that’s enough.

Give folks their flowers

No, I mean right now. Go tell someone you loved their work right now. They're on social media just say it, it has never been easier

"They know how much people love--" no they don't go say it right now to a composer or artist or game dev or writer or anyone AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

Hallmark rarely updates their key art, but noticed they put out a second poster for FINDING MR. CHRISTMAS now that the men of season two have been announced.

Get the feeling there's a lot riding on how FINDING MR. CHRISTMAS performs on Hallmark Channel this holiday season.

yesterday and today are the first days that finally feel like fall around here (middle TN).
Its rough to go to fall festivals and try to "live seasonally" when the climate where you live is still in the 90s.
This morning we saw high 40s low 50s and it was glorious

Fall decor doesn’t need to cost $100. Give me Dollar Tree supplies, a vision, and 20 minutes.

Ive been in enough community and charity organizations to know that there's politics involved in all of these things, especially something as personal (and in some cases small town prestigious) as cooking and baking

what was the conversation like around these?
hallmarkhousewife.bsky.social
one of my favorite things to do is look at regional or community self published cookbooks.
I especially like noting when there's 2 or more of the same recipe done slightly different and they're titled
Edna's Butter Cake
Sally's Butter Cake
and
Izzy's Butter Cake
because I then wonder...

350 degrees for about 30-40 minutes or until the cake is just starting to turn golden

birthday cake is a classic

vanilla hot milk cake
Beat 4 eggs 7-10 minutes until super frothy
add 2 cups each flour and sugar
a teaspoon of vanilla
and I add just the smallest pinch of nutmeg
add 1 cup of hot milk with 2 tabelspoons of butter melted in it
then add a teaspoon of baking powder
bake

Good morning
Its my kid's birthday today so I just got cinnamon rolls in the oven
and I'll be busy most of the morning working on his birthday cake.
Later we go to my in-laws who are doing dinner and presents with him.

Also, I tend to do as much over phone as possible now. I want to hear you, and your thoughts.

Could have even started Countdown on Oct 31 and just had all 24 new movies, 3/week, Fri-Sat-Sun. CHERRY LANE sequels for 6 PM Fri-Sun Thanks week double feature.

Reality Mondays. Series Thursdays. And, promote heck out of TWELVE DATES 'TIL CHRISTMAS Thanksgiving Day debut.

Still surprised TWELVE DATES 'TIL CHRISTMAS not getting splashier/earlier roll out. Hallmark holiday ratings usually highest Nov 15-Dec 15, peaking near Thanksgiving. While DATES launches in latter half of range (12/5), doesn't finish until 12/19, very late in season, with only 2 weeks to build buzz

To be fair...Autumn on Apple Hill is AMAZING
and...I don't care about football or birding...so it wasn't as much of a lure as apple picking and traditional hometown halloween...even if I do like the actors.
sleepykittypaw.bsky.social
With one weekend to go before Christmas movies kick in, Hallmark's last non-holiday title, HOME TURF, earned 1.074M live + same day viewers. Up just slightly from last week's numbers, but still down 58% year over year, when AUTUMN AT APPLE HILL had 1.7M, which is…extremely not good.

tbh I didn't even know GAF existed until I started following your account. Now I give my husband and bestie tea on them every time you post so thank you for the updates and entertainment

Frog said, “Would you like me to tell you a story, Toad? “

“Yes,” said Toad, “if you know one.”

turning out really well
next time I will put in corn (didn't have any this time) and also would be better with some sour cream when serving. Notes taken and this has been added to our dinner rotation.
hallmarkhousewife.bsky.social
Feeling better than I did yesterday but still sick so trying to take it easy today

Dinner is chicken, white beans, salsa, whatever veg I find in the fridge, cream cheese, bone broth, and a bunch of spices tossed in the crockpot. Will serve over rice.
