Hello everyone...
Seems like ages since I posted...and I guess it is!!
I have been trying to post for 2 days, and had a lot of problems with my photo editor.
I do like to add my name to my pics...so I persevered...and finally success!
trouble is...I post so infrequently...I have a hard time picking the pictures!!
What a Summer and Fall it has been for clouds!! Just gorgeous...
Not to mention the wind! hahaha!!
Got an afghan crocheted for my Daughter Erika's bday in September ...
I have 2 others on the go...and one finished for Miss N's 1st bday in November...
Can you believe how time flies????
Our Thanksgiving went very nicely...everyone contributed to the meal...
According to their dietary requirements!
Miss N and Miss V got along famously ♥️ Miss V made her giggle and laugh a lot!
Cottage is coming to an end for another year...
Too darn chilly and wet and windy!
And....remember I was so thrilled to get a new fridge and stove last Spring???
Well...
My third stove will be delivered this Friday!!!
Two others were faulty!!! What an ordeal this has been...let me tell you...
The squeaky wheel gets the grease for sure...
Hopefully the third is the charm...
We also have to have a big old Maple tree removed soon...:o(
I have a picture of it near the end of the post...
Certainly a big space will be created by it s absence...but it has become a dangerous situation...so he needs to go...
Our drives to and from the cottage are delightful...
I love to capture a few pics every trip...
Love the barns!!
I made a Key Lime Pie again for Thanksgiving...
Boyfriends favorite...and soooooo delish!!
Hope you are all well...
The weather has been incredibly strange everywhere...
Michael sure did a number on the Gulf of Mexico...
That is the area we are heading to in February 😳
A new adventure awaits us!!
See you soon....
Cheers! :o)
linda♥️
So nice to hear from you! Hope can join us more often.
ReplyDeleteHi Furry...
DeleteThanks so much for stopping by...long time no see...
Nice to read a post from you, Linda! That's some bad luck with your stove. One thing we learned when we bought all new appliances when we renovated our kitchen and that is to buy extended warrantee. We actually had to use it for our fridge and dishwasher and I shudder to think what we would have had to pay if we didn't have it. I hope this new one works for you now! -Jenn
ReplyDeleteHi Jenn...we paid a LOT for a 20” gas stove...this one better work properly! Geesh.....
DeleteEnjoy your week...
I have been thinking of you! Your photos are AMAZING as always, I hope that stove works right!
ReplyDeleteI was just over at yours! Great minds think of each other🧡
DeleteI thought you said, Got an afghan crocheted for my Daughter Erika's BABY in September! A little disappointed here but the picture of your granddaughters makes up for it.
ReplyDeleteHahaha!😳😬😳
DeleteAren’t they cuties?💛
Love the gigantic barn!
ReplyDeleteAnd I think October needs to slow down! Number Nine will be two on the 27th. Just doesn't seem possible...
November will bring the arrival of Number 11 and that's pretty exciting.
:0)
I didn’t know you were having more grands! Congrats Martha💙
DeleteI've been told Number 12 will arrive in 2019. I'm betting it's a girl.
DeleteWonderful💗
DeleteWow, hard to believe sweet Miss N is coming up to her first birthday. Those girls are such a delight to see. I can see why you enjoy your drive to the cottage, as I would love it too. All those barns and fabulous skies. The lake is looking a little chilly now, and next week it is Halloween. Daughter tells me it will be very cold, very soon!
ReplyDeleteHi Patricia...
DeleteYes...my girls are very special to me🧡
I know how you love the barns and fields...ever changing landscape...
We have had a horrible soggy Fall....very chilly...🙁
It's amazing how beautiful the tree looks:( IT will leave a mark..I know how you feel we have had some removed..not by choice..but you do get accustomed to it..in a different way.More light for sure.
ReplyDeleteThe afghan is beautiful..you're just so nimble.
Yrs ago..I entertained the idea of a farmette:) Not long..but I did.I love pastoral views..I guess you could just say I love looking at pretty.Like your post.
The girls:) The cheery pumpkins..
Bonne journée!
We drive by a “hobby farm”...each week we see a new farm animal! Horses...pigs...donkeys...llamas...and chickens!
DeleteSometimes the chickens are out near the road...I want to stop and get a photo...but boyfriend is on a mission!😂😂😂
Perhaps I can convince him to stop next time!
The tree is a worry for sure...hope to be there when they take it down...
Anothervwindy one here...
Enjoy your day...think I’ll bake something!
I enjoy all your photos, but i just love that terrific BEE shot in your header photo!
ReplyDeleteThanks Debra! Took that last year...my Mums haven’t bloomed yet this year!😬
DeleteOctober is flying by, probably helped by some of the winds we have been having, Are you sure Miss N is almost 1, wasn’t it just last week she was born?, 😄 how time flies,
ReplyDeleteSure feels like last week,Linda....time goes too fast when you’re older😕
DeleteKey Lime is one of my favorites, too...however, I really can't think of a pie that I don't like. I choose pie over cake anytime.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos...
It’s a tough choice,eh bj? Yes...key lime pie is a delight!
Deleteoh CC girl. those two precious little girls! they're both so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYes they are Tammy...so glad you stopped by...hope you are well💙
DeleteYour granddaughters are beautiful! That little one has grown so much. Time does indeed go by very quickly! I LOVE key lime pie. I was just going through my recipe binder yesterday when I ran across it and thought "Hmmmm…I should make this soon." It's been much too long!
ReplyDeleteI have a very easy recipe if you'd like...
Deletemy gals are sweet!
Liking your clouds . . . and pics.
ReplyDeleteTwo “littles” cuddling . . .
Miss V looks all sweetness!
Sad to see that Maple go . . .
I love my trees . . .
We have to do a serious “trim trim” next spring! (ka ching, ka ching)
My Mister Irish has the same favorite in pie!
Hope #3 stove will be a keeper!
DeleteOh we are sad too Lynne...but...you gotta do what you gotta do...right?
Stove#3 in place...fingers and toes crossed...🖤
Lovely post and photos . My 1 year old already WOW ! yes the clouds have been pretty but the winds have been very chilly BRR ! Hope this time round your stove works well that's crazy gong through all that , things aren't made as well as they used to be are they ?! Hope that lovely big tree provides lots of fire wood for your cottage , I don't like having trees taken down but sometimes you just have to for every ones sake including the trees . Oh a new adventure trip for you in February that will be nice , Thanks for sharing stay cozy the weather this weekend is going to be cold and rainy and maybe some mixing YIKES ! It is creeping up on us that dreaded cold season we call Winter BRR !
ReplyDeleteNo they’re not Elaine...hopefully this one will be up to snuff!
DeleteThe tree needs to go...hopefully the guy shows up soon...it is falling apart!
Brrrr today..
Enjoy your weekend!
Wonderful catch-up, Linda, love all the pretty scenes! Oh, one year old, my goodness time flies.....Sweet photo of the two little ones cuddling in the chair :) It must be so hard to say goodbye to the cottage for the winter, but it sounds like you have a nice vacation to look forward to. We are cool and damp here and the wind is blowing all the pretty leaves away. Your lovely crochet has inspired me to get out the hooks again. Sorry about your tree, but understandable. You will get some lovely firewood and slabs, though. Sending hugs xo Karen
ReplyDeleteHonestly Karen by this time of year...when it starts to get cold, we are ok with closing it up.
DeleteLooking forward to warm Summer days next year!
Hopefully some firewood!
Love the pics, Linda. Good to see Miss N and Miss V getting along um... famously.
ReplyDeleteCheers!
That blue guy
Hi Blue...
DeleteThey sure are cuties, those two!
Nice to see you.....
