Favorite Time of the Year

Happy Fall .... Happy First Day of October !! It's gloomy & chilly here in the woods ...... cleaning out the wood stove and carrying some wood up to the back deck, is on the agenda this day.

We know soon we will be lighting a fire

early mornings & late evenings to

keep away the chill. 

DH has been splitting wood for weeks ....

thinks we should be all set for winter.

The cabin has had fall decorations out since my last

trip to PA.   We came back with a truck load ... unfortunately

I have had to rid so many .... must be due to all the

rain we have had. 

Some of the Best  didn't last three days past

my setting them around outside. :-(

We have had our share of company these last few

weeks .... a Surprise visit from

my brother, my nephew &

my great nephew who live in

Long Island & upstate NY

so much  Fun to sit,  catch up and laugh

around the kitchen table with Family. 

Good for the Soul !! I am Blessed !!

Next was a visit from Janet & Don

of winterwillowprimitives in VA

Janet and I have been Blog friends for

the past four years and it was so

nice to finally meet in person.

She is so sweet and we enjoyed the visit greatly.

She gifted me with one of her sweet pinkeeps I love it to

pieces ...... she also brought goodies for me that she sells

on her website, one was a small redware plate that

I just can't seem to capture in a photo.

All of it was Wonderful ...  the Gifts made

from Heart & Hand are Treasured.

Thank You so much Janet !!!

This week my Dear friend Anita

(aunt daisy's in EmmausPA)

came to spend a few days at the cabin .... just pure

"Girl Time" and boy how we both needed it. 
The weather was gloomy outside but the

laughs & chatter brightened the inside.

Its amazing how much talking two Friends

can do and really not say much, at least

that's what we told Paul. 

We only paused to eat & drink when

necessary lol

Amy my Dear you were missed ..... (((hugs)))

Anita also came bearing gifts ..... I'm getting totally spoiled,

and how my friends know me ..... I received the new Judy

Condon Book "Holidays at a Country Home" which

can be purchase at her store. I haven't put it down yet. 

She  also made me a Sweet bag of Dried Lemons

she knows  my love of "naturals" and boy do

they fit the bill ... look great & smell wonderful.

a trip through aunt daisy's will net

you things you wont see anywhere else. !!!

I promise you will love it.

Thank You so much Anita !!!

Its the special time of year ...

time for candles, fires,

good hearty meals, apple crisp,

pumpkin bread & pumpkin fudge.

Colored leaves, brisk walks, lap blankets 

cozy socks, and extra hugs.

 I couldn't be happier .... I Love the Fall !!!

I hope all is well with you & yours 

I thank you for stopping by when time allows. 

I know I enjoy my time visiting with you.

Sending Good Thoughts,

Blessing & Hugs from the Cabin ~~ Connie xox
