Late Summer Harvest

Bad news: the dogs ate half the peaches off the tree. No joke.

Good news: Even counting the dog issue, it was not a bad harvest for the day. Not at all.

Peaches!

First peaches ever. Yay!

Breakfast!

Oatmeal is almost ready. Brown sugar, almonds, vanilla soy milk and honey are in the table.

Oh, and there’s maple bourbon molasses blackberry sauce on the stove.

Happy Sunday Breakfast!

Pumpkins!

This is my friend Lalena’s pumpkin harvest. Jealous?

Mom and Dad’s House

Dad’s grapes

Gathering blackberries with two of my favorite people.

Figs!

10 pounds of figs were ready today. Starting jam now.

Dad, I can see you smiling from 80 miles away.

Sewing Paper

I recently found out that I love seeing paper!

I am making these wax paper pouches for a gift basket – for herbs from the garden.

1. Fold a piece of wax paper in half
2. Sew up the sides
3. Fill with goodies
4. Tie top with cotton string or ribbon
