Vacation::::Final Days

Yesterday was the last day of my vacation (sigh).

Sunday it was rainy and I did some baking. I made some Scones from this recipe.
I split the dough in half and did some without chocolate chips and some with. A sweet treat for a sweet friend's birthday. She got a jar of Strawberry Jam to go with them too.



Then I lounged around reading and watching movies and made some veggie pizza for a lunch/dinner.





One good thing about all this summer rain and cool temps--my chard and carrot seeds will get a good start.



I have yet to harvest a tomato and this is what my pumpkins look like:



Look at these mushrooms that sprouted overnight...really, I could swear they weren't there yesterday!



I was out at the pond looking for Froggie and a pigeon flew in. Perfect lighting.



Other rainy day projects consisted of some crochet. I am considering entering this into the WA county fair. I have some photos to enter and perhaps an apple pie. For now I am only sure that I will enter the photos. It seems novel to enter something into the fair, but I have no idea what others will enter.








Sunday Frog


Monday Frog


Tuesday Frog

He keeps finding new hidey holes and sometimes I have to search a long time to find him, or check back and look again. He's a sneaky little froggie.

  3. Wow those scones look amazing... Awesome band-tailed pigeon shot, I've only seen them in tree tops. The mushroom/gnome photo is perfect!

  4. I love that gnome, too, all tucked in to his moss.
