Somehow, one branch of my hydrangea decided to create a blossom at the very end of the season. The white flowers always appear in the spring and early summer, then darken to green then pink. But in this completely pink hydrangea is one beautiful white flower. Symbolism..it's never to late to bloom?

Thrilled that the squirrels haven't absconded with all my Concord grapes! Not enough to make a full batch of jelly, but enough for something!

After a very bad week, a night of music by one of my favorite bands - America - did my soul good. And my son met one of the singer/guitarists and got an autograph and a guitar pick! Epic night 😊

Prolific tomatoes this year! These are going to be roasted with some cipollini onions then made into sauce for caponata.

Katydid! Don't see these too often, but I was thrilled to find this one living in my ferns and Echinacea.

Delighted to be the recipient of two 2nd place ribbons at the Wisconsin State Fair! The winners were savory beet and apple pie with herbed goat cheese and a hot water crust pastry, and my construction cone theme pie (their category!) was a cookie crust, w/layered triple orange moose, vanilla mousse
