Real Homemade Pies

My mom and I have declared this the SUMMER OF PIES! We are determined to make a whole variety of pies, all with homemade crusts. We are trying out a variety of crust recipes and fillings. Our first pie of the summer was rhubarb!

Sweet Spring Findings

Found this growing naturally today...

Honeysuckle is always so cheerful to me.

Baby, It's Cold Outside

September

Summer is still trying to hang on. Fall is in the air...

That's how I'd summarize September.

I'm feeling ready for a Pumpkin Spice Latte. I've heard it's the 10th birthday of this deliciousness. I'll have to celebrate.

 

Be Still

Pretty beads, carefully picked out to make...

Springing Forth (in late summer)

The flowers I planted in a small cutting garden have slowly begun to make their appearance. I'm so happy to see them.

I'm going to bring them inside.

Growing and Changing

I've been away for awhile! Like so many others, I got caught up in other things and out of the habit of blogging. I haven't given up on my blog, but am still deciding the direction I'd like it to take. I worried too much early on about how many followers I had. That gets discouraging quickly, doesn't it? 

For now, I think I'll focus on pictures of things that make me happy. Here are a couple of plants from around the house that brought cheer this summer.

That's all for now.
