Autumn Flowers

October 3, 2016

Even though it is now officially autumn I’m planting flowers. It makes my heart happy to see the leaves turning colors and the beautiful flowers that I’ve put into various pots. As much as I’m sorry to see summer leave, I welcome the cooler weather. Autumn has always been my favorite season as it’s the time of year when everything bursts with the last of its beauty. To me, it seems as if nature has been saving up all year for her grand finale. Winter will be certainly be here soon enough, which brings its own beauty.

Too Much Pizza

June 4, 2016

It’s been quite a week waking up to discover there was no water and that the irrigation guys had drained the well! Welcome to the country! After chasing all the appropriate people the well is back to normal. A wonderful thing is happening this moment. Because of the heavy rains yesterday my guys who come mow the acreage came this morning. It just so happened that I had made way too much pizza. So my guys are sitting on my front porch chowing down on pizza and taking a little break before their next stop. It always makes me so happy to see people enjoying the food that I make. It’s a beautiful thing!

Saturdays At The Butcher Shop

April 16, 2016

I’ve gotten spoiled and typically don’t care for the grocery store meats. They tend to be bland and tough so most Saturdays I take a trip to the butcher shop. I’ve been reading Bill Buford’s book, Heat, and when the butcher asked me what meats I wanted I thought to myself, “Hmmmm…I think I’ll eat like a Tuscan,” and then blurted out, “I’ll have those two large delicious looking T-Bones!” Life is so much better with a good butcher nearby.

Druid Lane

This street is not far from my house in Connecticut. I’ve been meaning to stop and take a photo of the sign. Yesterday, I decided that not to put it off any longer, so I stopped and snapped some photos of it.
