Riding Out the Storm

Riding Out the Storm-

Like many across the country we were riding out the recent storm. All across the United States high winds, rains, flooding, and tornadoes can be found  bursting into the autumn season. We had strong winds, hail and even a tornado yesterday. We lost our electricity for 11 hours! We were fortunate to have not sustained too much damage. Others were not as lucky and found themselves piling sandbags to keep the flood waters at bay. A lot of damage has been sustained to those living in the southern part of Utah. It’s very warm and dry there most of the year, so the ground is not able to absorb that much water all at once. I ask that you join me and lift up in prayer all those affected, here and across the country.

While we were riding out the storm, I was reading a few of my favorite magazines, “Traditional Home, Cottage Journal, Artful Blogging, Victoria, Life Beautiful and Veranda”. You may have seen my Instagram post HERE. Reading by flashlight has its challenges. Over the summer hubby had purchased some compact and very bright LED lights (compact flashlights) that effectively harness the light of the sun. Oh so bright! Harbor Freight has been added to his favorite stomping ground, really, it is up there with Cabellas and Sportsman Warehouse and that is something to be noticed, as shopping in those stores has the ability to make time stand still. Fortunately for me the craft shop is a short walk away. Please note time has been known to stop there too.

As I was reading and diverting my eyes so as not to look directly into the light I had a few random thoughts.

• I think Cory Hart may have been using his Harbor Freight compact light during a power outage when he wrote, “I Wear My Sunglasses at Night”.
• Is Katherines Corner a blog with a shop or a shop with a blog?
• My bloggy friends and readers are going to be so excited when the see the list of wonderful giveaways coming up.
• Would my lovely readers read Katherines Corner if it was a monthly magazine?
• What if it cost money to be a subscriber?
• What does it cost to create a monthly magazine?
• I sure do love that man of mine.
• We should write down all of the upcoming television shows we want to watch.
• I hope the electricity comes back on so I can get a post ready for Friday.
• I will announce my newest shop items on Saturday, I’m so excited!
• What is Izzy eating?
• I ate too much for dinner.
• Has that freckle always been there?

    In terms of a monthly magazine, Katie, do you mean one that is a physical paper monthly magazine or one that is an e-format. How do you make one?

This yummy recipe had nearly 30,000 pins on Pinterest, Then my blog went down and the IP address was changed when they fixed it. So all pins from Katherines Corner were no longer linked and Pinterest deleted them because the pins didn't go anywhere.When you make this pie I hope you'll pin it too. I was so proud of this accomplishment. xo
