~ Little dragons and icecream ~

 

Woke up to a lovely pink & peachy sky

 another sunny and warm Indian summer has been bestowed on us here in Montucky

 enjoying every minute of it.

 I seem to scurry a little more to get things done

 little reminders everywhere

 that Autumn is just around the corner.

Hay barn is finally finished

 glad for that and just in time...

my girls will have nice dry hay this frosty season.

 Washed mountains of laundry and hung it all out to dry in the warm sun

 Planted some more trees before the cold snap

Sassafras

( you make root beer from the bark)

 the leaves look like mittens-

Working on my new shop,
business cards and yarn wrappers are in.

  Yarn is dyed and labeled

Now I am photographing the skeins will soon upload all

it's a process, but it is a fun process.

Sometimes in the evening when my three boys are away playing soccer...

I treat myself

 to

not making dinner

cereal with almond milk

 it's easy and I love it

1 dish, 1 spoon clean up

 sitting out on the front porch, the dogs laying by my feet

enjoying the quiet after a long day

with my bowl of cereal

 So this quiet evening

I am knitting a lovely pattern Little Dragon socks-

so pretty and the neat thing is that the back is 2 k 2p

 unusual, which I think makes it so unique

 there are several variations of this pattern

 and I finally also had some time to look ( drool) at my new book

Ample Hills Creamery

anyone who knows me,

is aware that ice cream is one of my food groups-

usually I have 3- 5 different flavors on the ready in my freezer.

...and now, I started making ice-cream 

with Ginger tea and lemon cookies

and the quote on the tea tag...

it said...where there is love, there is no question.

 

grateful for one of those productive, busy days

 with a little bit of calm and a little bit of sweet

 feeling peaceful, feeling plentiful
