It smells like Fall outside this morning :)
It gave us a feel of excitement, thoughts of Samhain, picking walnuts, first fires in the stove, pumpkins, big pots of stew and bright leaves, like dancing jewels, falling to the ground.
A while back we got a leaf blower/vac at a yard sale, Nik's quite excited about using it :) I'm excited that it will make mulching that much easier !
We didn't get as much done yesterday as I had hoped but that's part of living a simpler, more gentle life, or being lazy, it just depends on who you ask :)
We do have the fence cut and ready for the cat run and the base of the henhouse and a fine tuned blue print but not much else.
Today I think we'll just work on the henhouse, stack a bit of firewood and work on the medicinal garden.
Yesterday we had blueberry bread for breakfast, potato soup with fresh sourdough bread for dinner, ham n cheese sandwiches for supper.
Today's menu is, parmesan pepper biscuits for breakfast, ham with peas and rice for dinner, peanutbutter and jam sandwiches for supper.
I also intend to try and get some oatmeal cookies baked if I have enough butter.
Merry Day everyone :)

I've been thinking of Samhain myself lately. Figuring out the menu for the feast. Will have friends in for the celebration. I too have a nice size herb garden filled with medicinal and magical herbs. All perennials and organically grown. It's one of my joys.
I prefer to think of it as the simple life. When you work so hard and are in a rush to get everything done, then you are too tired to really enjoy the fruits of your labor.
Blessings to you and Nik.
