We woke up to frost this morning. Everything was coated. It looked very beautiful. I seem to be surprised that there\u2019s such an everyday occurrence as weather on Thanksgiving. Of course there is! Now it\u2019s raining so I\u2019m glad I took photos of the frosty morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m gradually cutting lots of baby pine and fir that\u2019s growing in the yard. There\u2019s a pile of it there at the top of the photo. I should make some wreaths with it. I love the forest but I don\u2019t want it to take over the open space we have, especially where there are blueberries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have a harvest table in the living room. I arranged it for a cornucopia effect. There\u2019s a bowl full of milkweed fluff that will go out in the yard soon before it scatters in the house. The squash is going to the food bank or someone that can use it. We can\u2019t eat so much. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re about to leave for camp, then Sam\u2019s cousin\u2019s for a feast. So far all the vegan cooking has turned out pretty well, although I didn\u2019t cook the potatoes long enough. Sam just put them in the food processor and they taste okay, although they\u2019re semi-raw. There\u2019s always something. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2018m pausing to feel grateful. For this abundance, for the gifts of the earth, for everything. And to wish all that visit here much happiness. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
