Swimming Holes and Doughnut Holes

On one of the last warm days that we had here on the farm,

I caught Oakley in his favorite "cool down" spot.

Rejecting our pond, he prefers a much smaller "swimming" hole...

Actually, Oakley (part Lab....go figure)  doesn't swim...ever.

He prefers dunking...

And splashing....

As for Sammy....this is about as wet as he ever gets!

Cool, crisp, cloudy Autumn days stir my soul and stimulate my nesting instinct.

The past few have been grey and drizzly.

It's days like these that make me want to spend hours in the house,

decorating for fall,

organizing, 

baking (these..I added walnuts),

cooking (this..I added Italian sausage and Parmesan cheese),

burning spicy soy candles,

and enjoying a pot of hot tea.

(Won't you join me?)

Gardening chores are at a minimum now,

giving me time to spend in my sewing room.

I've started a quilt.... a little girl's piggy quilt....

I'll share when it is finished.

Hubbs and I are spending a very quiet weekend here at the farm...

making these  (Yum!)

 and enjoying the Autumn weather and relaxing.

Hope you are doing the same!!
