because fall is coming

I’m running a little bit behind on my new Baby Moccasin unveiling, because I got a little distracted by today’s amazing weather and all the signs of fall that are showing up in the garden.

It’s so perfectly chilly today and the wind is whipping leaves all over the place. It feels so nice to be inside with a cup of hot coffee and a bit of chocolate. Today is going pretty well and tonight I will be baking apple pies! I’m getting excited for Halloween this year! I keep [...]

My goodness, I am so sleepy today! I had to be up super early and at work quite early for a staff meeting, yawn. I’m looking forward to a calm night of knitting and sketching out some new things. Oh, and maybe getting a photography project wrapped up! For right now, I’m getting through the [...]

music and books

There is just something about Fall that makes me wish for a new book, something I haven’t read yet. Maybe it’s the back to school, “bouquets of sharpened pencil” feeling that permeates the end of summer and beginning of autumn. That’s probably why early last week, I found myself standing (on tip toes) checking out [...]
