Totally off-topic to start things off today, but a few weeks back we were talking about the 'Griddle Stitch' for crochet projects. I came across a scarf pattern I made last year for 'Forster Care to Success' that uses that stitch.

Morning all! Fall color in full swing here in west Michigan, we are about 30% my guess. Lots of rain means long lasting great color. Garden is in good shape for the winter sleep. Have some rooted sweet basil in a jar with some water on the kitchen windowsill. Have done this before, it will last awhile just in the murky water. Still just a few things to do outside, house related. I buried my 2 bonsai for the winter, a larch and a spirea. They do well right next to the foundation on the south side and covered in burlap. Hummingbird feeder was taken down weeks ago and replaced with our suet cage. Pileated woodpeckers coming already, surprised me the other day, very early. Planning a small bonfire for tomorrow. Making white turkey chili today and another apple pie. We love fall! Going too fast on all my winter craft projects I need to slow down. Hope many check in on this thread and let us know how you are doing, especially ones with health challenges - any updates are appreciated as we keep praying. My biggest question in the next 2 weeks is how much sauerkraut to put up. Have a great weekend everyone!

Feeding apples to some deer wandering out of the woods into the back yard.

Good Morning to you, Diana.

In their 5th month since germination and temps as low as the upper 30's some nights, the garden does not look too alive yet the picker brother usually still comes out with about two dozen daily, praise the Lord.

Yesterdays pick:

Not many butternut squash here, with reduced space,
