We love a lot of the same things - MA Hadley pottery, seasonal birds, knitting. The chickadees have appeared en masse, but no juncos yet. I do love the 'winter birds'.

I love to watch the "bird-joy" happening in my garden all year long. It brings such peace, just to watch them flit about. I haven't seen any juncos at my feeder yet, but I'm sure they'll arrive soon. Enjoy a lovely and restful weekend.Kymhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01332895223302876006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2087025136491626802.post-66242251806545440882020-10-23T05:34:24.307-07:002020-10-23T05:34:24.307-07:00I love this line, Jane: "After a night of fit...I love this line, Jane: "After a night of fitful sleeping, the birds stitch the morning back together." <br /><br />I am going to allow the birds to help me stitch my morning back together more often!

Peaceful and lovely. We noticed a junco for the first time the other day. My Grandmother called them snow birds and Fletch said it is way too early for them to arrive! I love your grandson's comment about a place to rest his tongue. So cute! We are harvesting greens (several varieties of lettuce, spinach, chard, bok choy) and still a few cherry tomatoes. All are gifts! Your knitting is beautiful - I'm glad you are finding it peaceful and calming.Verahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13189170045283685051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2087025136491626802.post-27384452963833724172020-10-22T04:52:36.582-07:002020-10-22T04:52:36.582-07:00Jane, I always feel so soothed and calmed by readi...Jane, I always feel so soothed and calmed by reading your posts!<br /><br />We had one night in the past week where it dipped below freezing, but now we're in the middle of a few warmer days; my husband actually had to turn the air conditioning back on because it's gotten so warm on the third floor, where he has his office. Sadly we have not had the tomato crop that you did this year, so I am quite jealous of your tomato and basil eating!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05434256661615289001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2087025136491626802.post-42224873496412118772020-10-21T20:13:23.590-07:002020-10-21T20:13:23.590-07:00Oh I just was reminded, by your out, that I have c...Oh I just was reminded, by your out, that I have cherry tomatoes in my fridge from the store.

I love the cute stories you are reading to your grands.

I haven't noticed many birds here yet, but we are in a stretch of quite warm weather. John can not leave a cherry tomato unharvested and your countertop says the same thing. Good thing they are so delicious! Your spinning is beautiful and I can almost imagine the warmth of that wonderful blue shawl. Enjoy these days of fall and I also hope this awful fire season ends soon for everyone in the west.Bonnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11608328439375705263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2087025136491626802.post-86319997491548376572020-10-21T14:53:27.004-07:002020-10-21T14:53:27.004-07:00The shawl is coming along beautifully, Jane - it&#...The shawl is coming along beautifully, Jane - it's going to be such a nice warm hug! and I smiled at your comment about CoG ...yeah, I heard the same thing from a LOT of women and decided I didn't need to read it.
