Can’t think of a better way to celebrate the fall harvest equinox than to go harvest something.
Slicing cucumber, Yukon Gold potatoes, radishes, Walla Walla sweet onions, two small bell peppers, golden beets, and tomatoes.
The golden beets are going to be pickled and they are cooking on the stove at the moment. This is our first harvest of potatoes and it was like a treasure hunt digging in the raised bed and pulling out some potatoes. Fun! The temperatures have fallen a lot in the last week or so, down 25 degrees for the high temperature today at 57F. It’s going to rain too.
Yesterday I was playing with beads and made a necklace. It seems like a fall activity.
Amber, red tiger-eyes, brass, and Japanese triangle beads. It kept me entertained for most of the day, putting it together, and then taking it apart again to see how a different arrangement suited my fancy. Fall colors.
Today I’ve been knitting and playing with more beads, and then we played in the garden and now I have some fun work to do.
