Last of the Season

Just a few last photos on the eve of the equinox.  We're having such beautiful, warm weather here; slowly working at bringing more veg in from the garden.  The shorter days are full with all there is to do, strategically planning the filling of hot jars around baby naps, keeping a steady pace with homeschool stuff, never quite keeping pace with the appetites of my growing boys, chasing (and never quite catching) fall's dirt and clutter, and trying to enjoy the sunshine in the spaces in between!





 

 

 



Happy Equinox

Someone awarded me the Liebster Blog Award last week and I wanted to pay it forward to you:

ps. What do you do with your Rouge vif d'etamps squash? I grew some for the first time this year - do you use them the same way as a regular pumpkin?

Aw thanks Shannon! How very thoughtful of you. :)

I use the Rouge vif d'etamps for baking. I wrote a blog post about it (Nov. 26/2009)...or follow the recipe links on my home cooking page for 'pepitas' and 'pumpkin-coconut soup.'
