As always I'm grateful for all y'all out there. Smiling I hope you're enjoying your day!

ETA: Right! I finally got control of the new camera and took some pictures to show you what I'm thankful for.


pie!

Pie! The crust is store-boughten spelt (I haven't gotten the hang of a homemade spelt crust yet) but the filling's mine, from scratch. I roasted the punkin myself last night, and I had enough filling for the pie and a little ramekin--pumpkin custard. psst: the secret to my pumpkin filling success is black pepper! It adds a little bite. I'm also thankful for John, whose hands those are. Smiling


door quilt!

Finished Objects! First up, it's the door quilt for the back door. I took an old mattress pad whose sides had ripped out, took out the elastic, trimmed it to fit the door and then sandwiched it between some blue and white gingham and a linen-like garden catalog print. I pondered how to quilt it without a walking foot on my machine and then opted for "prairie sashiko"--just a running stitch in yarn in a grid pattern. I bound it the same way and stitched a pocket for a rod at the top. It works, too--keeps out the cold from the back porch nicely.


scarf!

Another Finished Object! This is the handspun scarf that nearly kilt me. So far I've decided to keep it but I may change my mind.


goofy kids!

This picture pretty much sums the whole thing up. Goofy, cute little girls, picture courtesy Gramma. Smiling
