    We had 34ºF But the house wasn't bad at 66ºF.

    Gonna start thinking about getting the stove ready!

    Was 60/40. May be closer to 50/50 now? Scot Linkletter can say for sure.

    Over the past week, we’ve had a lot leaves start turning - especially the maples. A little earlier than usual, but we are getting a lot of nice foliage colors now.

    So my mini review of MWP . I obviously like them because I just picked up 15 bags and plan to order more . So 4 stars taking in account for quality and price .

    We have seen loads of stink bugs in the past couple days. I think that cold snap earlier in the week woke them up, and now they are looking for someplace warm to go.

    Interesting to note that since my move to NC, I can't remember seeing ANY stinkbugs. In NY, there were tons of them.
