Renovere Women's Raincoats

When the weather starts to cool down, do you have a favorite piece of clothing that you automatically think of pulling out of storage?  Is is a nice bulky sweater, or perhaps a big wool coat that just makes you remember all of those cooler days that have long gone by?

Maybe you have a favorite knit cap, that frames your face just perfectly, or is the perfect color for your skin tone.  People speak of comfort food, but what about comfort clothes?  I, personally, am a huge fan of big fluffy socks.  The bigger, softer and fluffier the better.  With my fluffy socks on, a blanket, and a big mug of hot cocoa, nothing could be better.

We are in the middle of a season change!  Yay!!  The season is going from the unbearably hot, to pleasantly cool.  I love it when the temperature changes, and I am surprised that I need to pull out my sweaters.  It seems like just yesterday, people were wearing shorts, and today bulky sweaters.

I have to admit though, my absolute favorite time of year, is fall.  I love the briskness in the air, the feeling that everything is starting to go into hiding, the leaves, the animals……. the sun.  The smell of burning wood in the air, and the knit caps start to make their appearance.  I just love this time of year.

When you are on your way to a beautiful evening, the last thing you need is for a rainstorm to come up.  This could definitely put a damper, so to speak, on your evening.  What you need is a really great raincoat.  One that doesn’t look like it belongs on a child, not slick and shiny…  one that  doesn’t even really look like a raincoat, but protects better than you can imagine.

Now you have the opportunity to own a really great raincoat in your choice of 27 colors, and three different lengths!  You are going to love your new raincoat, just check out our testimonials!

If you are anything like me, you love a good storm.  I love the way the rain pounds on the roof, I just love the way it sounds.  I love to watch the lightening, and hear the thunder.

The thing I love most about a really good storm, is the shade of green everything is after the rain has stopped.  It’s the most beautiful shade of green I have ever seen, and it seems like it’s the same shade every time, but only after a really great storm.  It’s like the storm washed away all of the filters that were blocking the bright green from view……….  but then, somehow, it fades.  I suppose if it didn’t fade back to the normal shade of green, then I wouldn’t appreciate the storm as much.

Nature is wonderful.

If I had a dime for every time someone walked up to me during the haunting season and asked what I thought they should be for Halloween, I’d be a very, very rich woman by now. Of course, everyone’s been asking me that since I was five  years old, so I do have a little bit of cumulative benefits going here, but still…

Anyway, as we’re getting ready to launch into what is easily one of my favorite seasons I wanted to answer this question once and for all, right here where everyone can see it. (As a matter of fact, I think I may start printing out copies and carrying them around with me, just because I can. Hmmm…) Anyway, much like when you were trying to decide what you wanted to be when you grew up, the answer to this question is extremely simple and extremely complicated-be whatever you want to be! Only this time, you’re not going to be limited by your own skills. Hey, I’ll be the first to admit I’m probably never going to be a brain surgeon or a professional ballerina (not nearly enough tolerance for gore or coordination) but that doesn’t stop me from dressing up like one for Halloween!

This Halloween, let your imagination go wild and, for one night a year, fulfill all those dreams you had when you were a kid. Be anything and anyone you want to be. That’s what Halloween is all about.

I’m so excited! Halloween is creeping up. I’m beginning to find costumes and ghoulish goodies in the stores everywhere I go. The magazines I can’t help but flip through when I’m standing in line at the grocery store waiting to pay for my groceries are chock full of great ideas for spooky Halloween treats. Pumpkins are absolutely everywhere. Ahh. I love the fall.

Since I can’t help myself (I always spend at least an hour or two during the Halloween season flipping around through the web to see what fun and funky Halloween treats I can find to whip up for the kiddies this year) I think I’m going to make it a grand tradition to add at least one recipe (maybe two) recipes a week here that I find out scouting so you can enjoy these great and ghoulish treats too!

Let’s start with my personal favorite from this year’s spooky line-up:

Brain Surgery Salad

(Ugh-this just sounds gross from the word go!)

RECIPE INGREDIENTS:
	2 small or 1 large package of lime gelatin
	1 16-oz. can fruit cocktail or 1 1/2 cups grated carrots
	2 surgical or rubber gloves

1. Prepare the gelatin according to the package instructions.

2. Transfer to a dome-shaped mold. (A mixing bowl will do.)

3. Drain the fruit cocktail and add it, or the grated carrots, to the gelatin when it’s half set.

4. When the salad mold is ready, unmold it onto a platter and drape the surgical gloves on each side. Makes 10 servings.

I found this recipe on the web at http://jas.familyfun.go.com/recipefinder/display?id=14706. Check out the site. They have all kinds of ghoulish goodies and Halloween snacks for Trick or Treaters of all ages!
