Three Little PumPkins ~~

"Three Little PumPkins sittin on a fence

trying to make a Dollar out of ninety nine cents. "

Yup got my first real PumPkins of the Season

last Saturday ... right down the road a piece.

Normally cant find any in CT this early but

our neighbor/farm stand guy Tom got them in just for

me ...... almost cause an accident as I screamed

STOP to hubby when I spotted them.

We usually head to PA early Sept

to find my first pickins  but boy am I  happy

to see these cute little orange orbs

sittin in my kitchen. 

I know alot of you aren't ready

yet .... but I so Love the Fall and all

that comes with it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Today we went down for some fresh picked corn

and he gifted me with this Beauty .....

(the only one he had)

Can ya believe the size of the stalk,

and look at the deep grooves, and I love the tall shape.

I was Giddy I was so Excited, he was way too busy to

give me the scoop ( variety & where it was grown).

As soon as I can I will bring him down some home-made

TreaT ....  Thank him again,  and get the story.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I am counting down the days for a camping 

trip to PA.  Fingers crossed I can make the

Fall Open Houses at my favorite shops.

Visit with my Friends, Purchase some Treasures

and come back with lots of Inspiration & Memories.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wishing you all the Best of what

Summer has left to offer ~~

It's another gray, rainy day

here in CT a perfect day to

bake up a batch of cookies,

cook up a pot of something

warm & hearty and maybe

curl up with a good book or magazine.

What ever your day holds

I wish you the Best ~~

Thank You Dear Friend ~~

We are busy this week-end, packing away the out door

furniture ... we will leave the back deck set up for awhile longer,

 because I love afternoon tea in the sun. 

Plus on of our last trip to PA we found a

clay  chiminea,  and evenings sitting with

a glass of wine and a fire burning outdoors 

is a slice of Heaven.

The pool will be put to rest for another year

(we're a little late with this chore)

as it has already started filling up with leaves.

I finished  cleaning all my windows inside and out,

big job ...... glad that's done.

I can now place my window lights in ... love the look.

I'm not able to keep them in all year as my friends in PA do. 

I have no real window stills so I have to rig them up.  

The windows  wont open when there in ..... so I place them

in now & turn them on through the end of January. 

We are still pretty green here in CT but I know it wont be

long before we are a blaze with color.  Ti's the Season of

PumPkins, Hay Rides, Warm Fires, Hearty Meals,

and Icouldn't be Happier.

I hope where ever you are .... you are

Healthy, Happy, Cozy

&

Enjoying the Season with those you Love.

Sending Fall Blessings

and have it all to myself,

than be crowded on a velvet cushion”

Happy Place ~~

Happy Tuesday Morning Friends

I'm in such a Happy Place ... my most favorite time

of year is upon us ...... the mornings have a chill in the

air, the nights are the same way ....... and during the day

when you step out in the sunshine you

warm through & through. 

For me this is the most ideal weather ..... I love

pulling on a favorite sweater, and sipping

my tea while  I peak for slight changes

in the trees that surround the cabin.

I just finished packing up the RV... we are heading back

out to Amish country in PA for a few days. 

 This trip I hope I come home with my Cinderella,

Peach & Green PumPkins ..... a nice primitive bucket,

 barrel or crock would also be fun to find. 

Love all the Goodies I stumble upon in PA !!

But mostly I love the time I get to spend

alone with my DH and the Memories I

bring back each and every visit.

"You are today where your thoughts

have brought you;

you will be tomorrow where your

thoughts take you."

~~James Lane Allen

The shop here at the Cabin is opened

by appointment ... and I thank all who have come

in to visit & purchase this Fall Season.

Cathy ~~ Thank You for my

CT green PumPkin ... your a

Doll for thinking of me, and a whiz for

finding it so early in the Season.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

 pictures on my picture trail , and
