These are the last of our flowers. This weeked I'm going to have to clear out the frost-bitten plants that remain in the garden & start raking leaves. I do love the crisp fall air, but I hate to see everything starting to look barren & brown.
On the bright side, we still have some lettuce & spinach growing. We've been eating salads with greens solely from our garden for several weeks now. It's so nice to go out & pick fresh greens instead of buying them in the store. They're really crisp & taste amazing.
Our church bazaar went well last weekend! We ate a gigantic (and by we, I mean that I had barely 1/3 of it before it was suddenly all gone!) bowl of spicy vegetarian chili. It's so fun working in the kitchen.
No major plans for this weekend, since W is working. It'll be nice to have some quiet time to get things done around the house & to relax. Have a wonderful weekend!
Here's what we've been eating in the last week:
Breakfasts
- Cranberry Watermelon Green Smoothies

- Summer's Peanut Butter Baked Oatmeal - I just love this! I didn't add any honey/maple syrup this time & liked it even better. Such great pb flavor!
