Also intrigued by the not-quite-pretty pumpkins… whether they’re still on the vine & just not ready yet… or have somehow “gone bad.” Like withering away, drying up, being eaten in the field or just simply rotting away. It’s kinda like “roadkill” in the pumpkin patch!

So much fun at the pumpkin patch on a beautiful Autumn day! So many to choose from… colors, shapes, gourds, warts & stems!!! Celebrating NATIONAL PUMPKIN DAY!

Another beautiful Fall morning with a chilly breeze & splashing waves that caught me off guard. It was calm yesterday… but not today?! Always fun when the waves are splashing & the sun is shining… trying to catch them both at the same time… and trying even harder not to get wet!

It was a “horror-ific” night of musical theater… with one of my favorite shows!!! I mean, ‘tis the season for creepy Skid Row, a dismembered dentist & a starving carnivorous plant!!!

It’s another Floral Friday! And I’m still loving the dahlias currently blooming in my garden. They took their own sweet time growing with no blooms… but the flowers are finally here. And it was worth the wait!!! Now I just hope we don’t get a “hard frost” any time soon so I might be lucky enough to get a few more flowers this year

Hard to believe we’re just one month away!!!
Time to mark your calendars & start making your holiday shopping lists.
Who’s been naughty?… and who’s been nice???

With the beautiful Fall weather we’ve been having, it isn’t quite “spooky-scary-Halloweeny” enough yet?! So it seems oddly perfect that Beetlejuice is hosting some beautiful purple statice flowers… at least until the “creepy” season gets here?! Thanks for sharing Emily!!!

Clear skies… but cold enough that I could see my breath.
And I didn’t like that!!!

Doin’ a little ZOOM’n with a couple of My Talented Friends… Sarah Chapman & Darlys Ewoldt… as we are already planning our “4×4 : FOUR MAKERS” show for next Spring! We’ll introduce a new “fourth” maker to the show soon… but until then, you can mark your calendar now!!! February 28th-March 2nd in Evanston!

Just doing a little stamping tonight on a couple demo bowls from last night’s pottery class. We discussed making “larger” bowls… and then we did!!! Sure, I could select them plain… HA!!!
