A hodge-podge view of the transition from summer to fall, in no particular order. Flowers left in the garden for the birds makes me happy. Seeing birds partaking of them makes me double happy.
Nearing the end of the Zinnia season.
Neon Pothos clipped and brought in for wintering over. It did so great in pots with the caladiums this year. Hopefully it will root easily and I will not forget to add water to the jar over the winter.
Halloween banner and other "trip-trap" put on the mantel.
Jade plants and dracaena trifasciata pots moved back inside and gourds arranged on porch along with fall pillows. I bought these years ago at the grand bazaar in Istanbul. They are badly faded, not meant to be left outside, but that's where I love them best. Maybe next fall will be the year for new pillow covers. There are so many fun fall and Halloween fabrics.
It's time for pumpkin baking too, as soon as that last piece of banana bread has been consumed. Maybe I need a piece right now? I just saw a recipe somewhere for a hot toddy too. With honey and camomile tea - it called for Rye but Bourbon sounds better to me. Is it just me or is Fall feeling especially delightful so far this year?
I love seeing all your beauties, how you celebrate every phase of life! Inspiring!
