Things are starting to wind down in the garden, but there are a few more goodies waiting for me there. Squash and corn and, yes, more tomatoes. I have planted some brussels sprouts and broccoli that can take the cooler weather too, so it's not over yet. I also have met a sweet little someone who has been sharing the garden with us -- a little bunny! (I'll try to get a photo soon!)
So, here comes autumn, my favorite time of the year. When things cool off, settle to a steady pace, and ripen. I always think of my favorite poem, "To Autumn" by John Keats (I even had it printed in my wedding program). Ahh..., pure beauty. Now it's time for sweaters and coffee (well, there is always time for good coffee!) and books, lots of books. I have some "tried and true" that I will take down from the shelf and some new books I picked up here and there over the summer. If I can put the IKEA catalog down. I've been pouring over that all summer. Oh, I know the sidebar says I'm reading The Poisonwood Bible, and I am. Just, well, not all at once!
I have been using my Print Gocco a bit lately, too -- I'm crazy about this thing! I'll post pictures later, after the mail goes out -- don't want to spoil the surprise!
