Autumn,  

the year's last loveliest smile. 

William Cullen Bryant




Autumn roses.


I can't help it.
I love my roses.
This particular variety smells heavenly.
I've been walking around with the jar offering whiffs
to all who are near...
pure heaven, I tell you.


***
Where are the white pumpkins, you ask?
So do I.
Apparently, we have had too much rain.
 They're still in the field.
I'll try again this weekend .

  2. I am torn between 1 & 3. ---1 because the pink is brighter & 3 becasue it almost looks like a vintage postcard. & I have to tell you I ADORE the pic of you & your sweetheart- it's obvious you're in love! so touching & sometimes hard to capture in a photograph.

    Wish you were closer & I could affordto have you come decorate my home for me!!!

  3. Rene' I am torn between No. 2 and 3 but I think I like the "happy medium" of NO. 3 best...they are all wonderful on their own merit.

  9. Hi I like number 4 best and then 2.
    Hey a couple of weeks ago I asked you about the upside down nail thingy you had the peach pie recipe standing up in? I didn't hear back yet and am still very curious to know. Thanks, EllenaElizabethMakes
