Oh, how I love fall! I am outside from early morning until the light is gone for the day! I have been working on acorn fairies for our nature tree and will take some pictures tomorrow to show. We put a branch over the kitchen table and will keep it up for the year. We used to have a small nature tree when the kids were small complete with a Mother Earth doll. I wanted to bring back the feel of those days but in a larger way. You’ll see tomorrow!
I’m also going to begin a monthly Bake a Cake Day along with a farmgirl sister from MaryJane’s Farm Connection. More on MJF later. I am also planning on a weekly entry on Tea, Making Ends Meet, and Cleaning from Scratch. I’ll have recipes and patterns for all of the above.
Why you ask? I have 2 friends that have challenged me to share how I have run a house, raised 3 kids, home schooled them and all on one income in an affluent suburb. We were eating “slow food”, using “green” cleaners and practicing “simple living” for 26 years. Who knew? I just thought we were living on the edge and had to find a way to make ends meet. So, now I’m part of a “movement”! How funny!
Well, off to finish a mop cover. Pattern to come.
Cheers!
