watching




leafy




first world problem

we have had a glorious past few weeks and so I struggled with this particular prompt

even our cell phone service has been uninterrupted 





still

all was still as we came to this spot in the wood

we sat for a moment and listened to the leaves falling


a good day

Joe and I went apple picking with my daughters and his sons

it's fairly rare that we all get to be together

but when we do it's a great big love fest!!

    The photo of "still" with those leaves -- magnificent! I also love the one of the young people going apple picking in the fall woods. Great perspective. I can imagine you all had a wonderful time!

    such wonderful fall colours, and I love picking apples, then eating too many and getting a tummy ache, I don't think I've missed a year of doing this since I was 7..I love the photo of the children..

    I hope I've not asked this before but is that a Friesian horse? It's beautiful and the day with your family sounds delightful. Nothing much better than spending a good day with family.

    Lovely pictures. Especially leafy! That's a good first world problem! I struggled with that one--and it didn't really fit in the end. Perhaps that is my first world problem! Have a great week!

Abby and Hopie time

  ~ ~ ~ Abby and Hopie go to the beach. On Saturday my granddaughter, Abigail, asked if she could come to her Hopie's house all by herself. Of course, I said I would love that! Her older brother, Verne, wanted to go to a friend's house and her younger sister, Natalie, is too young to be away from mum for an overnighter. So...it was me and Abigail for the weekend. She wanted to stay 2 nights! I think she may have been slightly motivated by the need for some alone time and Natalie's late night crying. ~ We cooked homemade cornmeal waffles together for breakfast. When your grandmother is a Montessori teacher you learn to cut your waffles up by yourself. You can see the concentration on her face.  I didn't help at all! Verne's first day of Kindergarten! I drove up in the morning to watch him get on the bus! He loves it! On Monday morning Abigail and I drove back up to her house. My daughter, Hannah, came over with delicious donuts and Bonnie made a breakfast of bacon, s

a basket from the farmer's market

  A basket from the farmer's market. When I was a child my mum always had a fruit basket on the kitchen table.  Fruit was always an option if we were hungry at any time during the day. I had the same when my children were young and I noticed while visiting my daughter last week that she had a basket of apples on her table for her children. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree... I tend to put a basket of vegetables on the table as well.  Root veggies mostly since they don't need to be refrigerated.  I think that they look beautiful and why should fruit have all the fun! My favourite part is that everything (even the basket) came from the local farmer's market. It's so important to support local farmers.

 ~ ~ ~ A bit of reading material.  I've been collecting books again... I've almost finished Think Indigenous.  My daughter bought it as a gift for me but decided to read it first. She loved it so much it took her a bit to part with it. I am loving it as much as she did and have put it down almost all the way through  because I don't want it to be over.  Macro tex
