22 October
the wood was lovely that day
we walked through a magical fairy land
yellow and muted browns seem to be the colors
this autumn
not so many oranges or reds
so that when you do see them they look as if they are on fire
First Snow
Happy birthday to my beautiful daughter, Bonnie. She brings me so much joy. My first snow day of the year! I work at a Montessori school and we are getting our first big snow storm of the year so.... SNOW DAY!! I made my own hummus last weekend. It was delicious. I added a little bit of turmeric along with the chickpeas, lemon, tahini, and garlic. I plan on eating a more plant based diet this year. It's only been a week and I'm already feeling better. I did eat two slices of mushroom pizza last night and ended up having heartburn so it will be a good long time before I eat dairy again. Each month one of our families brings in a bouquet of flowers. We cut most of the stems off and place them on a tray which we place on the children's table. We place another tray with a very small pitcher and a few very small bud vases. The child fills up the pitcher using water from the bathroom sink, brings it back to the table and pours the water in a bud vase of their choosing. Th
This was a good color year for us - very vibrant reds and oranges. I love these colors.

Oh, so beautiful! Lovely image and texture work!
ReplyDeleteEvery year is a bit different...glorious here right now. But sometimes those things that are rare are more cherished.
ReplyDeleteFall in itself is magical -the landscape is changing from summer's end to the end when winter takes charge:) Beautiful capture!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful scene! So peaceful! It does seem that each year the colors are different according to the weather. I could get lost in that view. xo
