...WHOOO !?

GOOD MORNING!
I've begun to 'update' our porch, in a FALL Theme, and I realized that I hadn't shown one of my Fav. Summer garage sale finds - This Great OWL that I picked up for a 'song'!!

NO Saling this past weekend, we put our veggie garden to 'bed' for the season.  Always a sad time - the last harvest.  We had some GREEN TOMATOES left on the vines, soo...










This morning was Gr Tomato bread day at our house!  It sounds GROSS, but it is SOOO YUMMY!! (and smells Great baking too!)
Yesterday I made a quick trip to The SEAGLASS beach to soak up a few of our ever-fading rays of SUN!
'QUALITY' not 'QUANTITY' !!
I HAVE to relay this conversation I had with one of my 'usual' Postal Clerks (T)...
I went to the P.O. yesterday with just one package to mail out for work.  I set it on the counter, T looked at it and...
  • (T) "Is this for REAL?!?"
  • (now, T has a GREAT sense of humour, and we often joke about peoples addresses... ie:  "Short Dick Drive"?????!)
  • (S) "Why?" (nothing out of the ordinary in the address!)
  • (T) "Is this really going to him??"
  • (S) (more confused than usual..) "Yeh... why?"
  • (T) "Wes!..."  "Wes Craven!" "-Los Angeles!!"
  • (S) "umm, yeh?."
  • (T) "YOU DON'T KNOW WHO THIS IS??!!"
and such goes my life folks - completely under a rock when it comes to 'Movie Stars' (well, movies in general...), TV icons, etc.  I had to go home and Google the name to get the full impact.  Then J did some 'earth' search thingie of the address, and we got to see the house.  Pretty sure now that the package may have been going to 'HIS ADDRESS'! 

Back to 'my' more familiar -


At the beach I have been picking up pieces of 'Beach Brick' lately - they have SUCH a Wonderful patina and feel...  Now to dream up some projects for them ;-)


Speaking of projects, Here is PHASE II of the 'What to do...?' with my acorns ~
I made up a few of these the other day - hot glued one as the focal point of the bow of a Autumn dried 'weed' arrangement (as J so fondly refers to them!).

Now, the bread is out of the oven

and it is time for me to get busy with some of the days activities!
HOPE EVERYONE HAS A GOOD ONE!

Well, you have been busy, busy! What do you do with Green Tomato Bread - eat it as a sandwich or is it sweet? It does sound gross, but I love Zuchinni Bread and Sauerkraut Cake and those sound equally gross.

My roots are still perky and looking good! I saw Japanese Lanterns on the front of BH&G mag this month and thought of you!

Love the acorn pumpkins I have a Santa made out of an acorn.
