October at the Orchard Shack

Last night I bought a pumpkin and put it on my freshly swept front porch.

I also bought a big orange pillow to go on my couches.

I cleaned out all the leaves, spiders, cob webs, & cigerette butts out of my stairwell.

I washed all my new mis-matched dishes from DI and put them away.

I received some pear-shaped yellow tomatoes from the neighbors, and put them in a cute bowl.

I served some golden peach tea, and chamomile tea w/ little cookies.

And then sat and knitted in my cozy little orchard shack and listened to friends converse.

*note to self - buy more mugs.

*another note to self - be sick and sleep in till 2pm more often

  1. I'm so jealous. I want to be one of those friends! I got some cool/inexpensive mugs at Michaels last week. Scarlett already broke one.

    You are such a Fall girl.

  3. I slept in until 12 today, you beat me. To exhausted to go to work today from staying up way too late last night. Sounds like you enjoyed your day even though you were sick. Feel better.

  5. It sounds like you're feeling better. I'm glad but sad you didn't get to come to our house. Plan on Volkslauf next year.
