All the signs

 of November...


A loaf of pumpkin bread in the old cast iron pan.


When the frost is on the pumpkin the squirrels are happy.

We have turkeys in our neighborhood.

Have you started your Thanksgiving shopping list?

Leaves

 My 'Falling Leaves' quilt is finished and ready to use...

and just in time for our 'Falling Temps'.

Dakota Man made me this sweet little barn quilt for the house.


It's a busy little house that we live in.

Door County

 We got to eat at Door Counties famous Al Johnson's restaurant for my birthday last month. The one with goats on the roof. We ordered Scandinavian pancakes with lingonberry syrup and meatballs. We were not disappointed.



                                       Afterwards we browsed their cute gift shops.


We came home and made the cute pixies we saw there. I'm always on the lookout for projects we can make together. Dakota Man turned the wood and I did the painting. One for each of our granddaughters.

Flowers and other stuff


                             It's finally cool enough to cover up with the quilt I'm binding.


          I couldn't resist buying a bottle of kombucha at the farmers market Saturday.


I resolve to buy myself more flowers.

Fall


 Dakota Man made me a new scarecrow. He even did the painting.
I picked up pumpkins and a mum while we were in Door County.  They were doing a lot of decorating for fall there which inspired me. 

What's not to love about fall right? Help a pumpkin farmer out and go buy a a few or ten.

Fall finally

Happy fall y'all. 

           We survived another hot summer.


We hit a farm stand Saturday, one of my favorite things to do this time of year. It won't be our last stand either.


I wonder if I have any pearl buttons in my button box?

This is for you daughter knit and pearl...
