Welcome to an 1864 farmhouse…life is good!

a quick hello!


A quick note to say hello and a peek at what’s happening here. The weather has become cold and windy, we even had a bit of snow this week!



While it quickly melted, it’s reminded me I need to pick up the pace. I cut the last of the sage and brought it into dry for Thanksgiving stuffing (or do you call it dressing?) I brought in some pots of rosemary, begonias, and geraniums, hoping they will perk up the kitchen throughout the winter, along with the last of the garden peppers. I don’t think I have the energy to make pepper jam, any suggestions??




Jan you are so right - the green gingham skillet is on eBay! 


Avocado looks to me like the 1970s so not super old, but just right for holding Candy onions in a farmhouse kitchen. 


Will let you know what I do with the bead board – I am plotting and planning, scheming and dreaming!  I also found some handwriting (plus the vet’s name and number) on the wall. Maybe it’s just me, but I think things like these are treasures. Not exactly sure what the last sketch is supposed to be…





And lastly, while staying up way too late to finish a book I’ve been reading, my Aurora app sent a notification that the Northern Lights “might” be visible in my location. Since this is a rare occurrence here in the Midwest, I grabbed my coat and outdoors I flew! And while they only lasted a few minutes before the clouds rolled in, it was an absolute thrill to see them.






Hope all is well where you are…as for us, Bailey thinks it’s time for a nice afternoon nap.
