Random Chit Chat

 Hello out there!

I'm still waiting for the pkg from Herrschners, shipped on the 6th....it is out there somewhere. I've had packages come Royal Mail from UK faster than it is taking this one from one state away. It would seem that everything is not in order here in the US, it happened over time I suppose, kind of like the frog in the boiling water, the poor dear didn't realize the temp was going up...post office is in bad shape. 

Patience is a virtue, working on that. So then I decided to look for the round 14" pillow which this project will cover, apparently round is not in fashion and JoAnn no longer carries them, I checked Hobby Lobby and nothing there either. So I suppose that it is not cost effective to make a round pillow, when you can make square ones, perhaps that container ship hasn't arrived here in the US yet.😏

Putting the garden to rest, it has been a most unpleasant summer weatherwise. I am looking very much forward to candles, baking, and making the house aroma filled with heartwarming stick to  your ribs dinners once again, summer is not my thing.

We are still working on the update for the side door. I'll be glad when it is done and we can move on. I continue to declutter, and making an effort to not replace or bring in more stuff. To much stuff. I have not brought up the fall tub for decorating, not feeling it. I did put my  stand up scarecrow up in the living room. Enough for now. Sometime less is more.

 

                           I do have a fancy for scarecrows. I've name this one "Fancy", and this is all that I've put out so far this year , do I need to have something everywhere....maybe not this year.                                    

made 2 loaves of bread this week, and one is gone already.  I want to make bisquits with the whole wheat freshly ground next, and totally replace the white flour. Went grocery shopping today and picked up some pantry items, went there and back and stayed out of the fray. I prefer to be at home.

The wide open...I love it.

What's doin?

 
 

I know it is not "official" fall yet, but are you feeling it too? The crisp cool lovely nights, bright sunny breezy days. 

I do so enjoy the fall, everything about it. The oven cozy meals which warm and provide yummy scents around the house. The candles are lit to provide light and cozy. I have both real candles, and battery operated timer candles, not alot of the faux candles, as we move into shorter days.

My bread making with the whole grain freshly milled flour has been going very well, & I think I've got the hang of it.

 No handmade going on, I have an order from Herrschners which I am looking forward to, perhaps it will encourage me to make something. 

Apples were picked up at the farm market, they were peeled & cored, flash frozen for future pies.

My sweet little vintage pie vent

Any of  you use a pie vent?

Take care....
