We have our fall chores under control! The gardens are tilled and the back garden has been enlarged to nearly triple size as the original garden is now too shady - tree growth, go figure!! We have yet to rake and mulch the leaves into the gardens, but they are STILL falling!! While waiting, we have been baking a new bread recipe - sourdough batter bread. Just mix, let raise, turn into the loaf pan, let raise and bake!! Really good and, so far, foolproof!! The Mabry Mill quilt is half finished; it is looking pretty good. Have finished two afghans, knitted a hat and almost finished a scarf and my sister has sent a pattern for mittens. Also I have done some sewing but still have lots to go. Good thing winter is almost here, maybe stuff will get finished! We have had some company lately, my sister came from "up north" and also Dan and family. Did a lot of fun shopping; herbs, crafty stuff and the like. By the way bought a new car, a Fiat 500; NICE!! Will miss the Jeep (after all it was 10 years with us), but this is so like the Festiva we used to have!
Woke up the other morning to this beautiful site under the Bradford pear trees - the deer really like the little tiny pears the trees drop in the fall and we love seeing them!
