Yes, it is official, Christmas has left the building...so to speak. (I'm personally leaving my Christmas Tree up until this weekend.)

The Village of Pinehurst will be collecting Christmas Trees 'curbside' on a weekly basis, starting this week through February 1, 2012.
So, simply place your tree curbside beside your driveway no later than 7am on Wednesday's for pickup.
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!

CORN MAZE near Pinehurst NC | Gross Farms
 
The farm in Moore County that usually has a Corn Maze isn't doing it this year...sorry, I don't know why.  But, I did find one close to Pinehurst and it is a short drive North to the Sanford area!  About a 30-40 minute drive.
Gross Farms has a 15-ACRE Corn Maze!!!  It consists of 3 different puzzles containing about 5 miles of trails through the corn field.  Of course, there is also a huge Pumpkin Patch located on the farm near the Corn Maze and Hayrides, too!!!

It smells like Apple Pie in my house on this First Day of Autumn!!!
North Carolina is home to many Apple Orchards... many of them in the Western part of the state, but we have some around Pinehurst, too!
The apples I used today are called "Arkansas Blacks" and they are an heirloom variety from Ken Chappell's Farm just 15 minutes outside of Pinehurst. They are tart & dense when picked, but sweeten with age. I mixed in a few Granny Smith's, too.

All my apples came from my … (27 comments)

2011 CAROLINA PANTHERS SCHEDULE'Are You Ready For Some Football'

I LOVE Football!!!  And, I've been a Carolina Panther fan from Day 1!  I was living in Charlotte when we got the Franchise and I try to watch every game.  Needless to say, I do not hold Open Houses on Sunday's during football season.  I have to draw the line somewhere, right?


The Carolina Panthers have a NEW Quarterback, Cam Newton, this year and I'm very impressed with him thus far.  We didn't win last week, but Newton and the rest of the team played a very good game!!!!
