Phenomenon
I awoke this morning to that special phenomenon - hoarfrost.
It is when fog meets froth.
Every branch...
limb...
and twig were coated with glimmering ice crystals.
Unharvested corn wore a frosty coat...
while a gossamer spider's threads were woven like a crocheted doily.
It may have been cold and gray but we enjoyed seeing this special phenomenon of beauty.
Hope you did too. Have a wonderful week.
God Bless!

Giving Thanks
Today I am giving thanks for family and friends. This includes all of you.
May all who are celebrating have a lovely Thanksgiving. For those who are not - have a blessed day.
"Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.
For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; His faithfulness continues through all generations." Psalm 100:4-5 (NIV)

Counting Blessings
Thanksgiving season has arrived and I have started counting blessings.
Here are a few of mine.
The joy of creating.
Flowers continuing to bloom.
Veggies waiting for harvest.
Bits of color brightening a gray November day.
Warm goodies for sharing.
Two companions enjoying a moment together.
There are so many more but will save those for another post.
In the meantime maybe you will share some of yours.
Have a Blessed Day!

A November Dawn
Dawn - a time to be silent ... a time to keep still ...a time to know that with the coming of a new day there will be a time for every activity, a time for every deed.
Have a blessed week!

October's Farewell
It brought us such lovely hues...
azure skies...
green meadows
panoramic vistas
and of course the moon.
Bless you for taking a moment to reflect with me.

Doodles/Inktober/Yellow Jackets
Been doing lots of doodles since I discovered that October is the month for Inktober.
First read of this event at Rhonda 's blogspot. If you haven't paid her a visit - please do. Rhonda is always up to something new and exciting in her studio.
Speaking of studio - mine became a home for Yellow Jackets (you know those mean ground hornets that pack a terrible punch if you corner them). Hubby and I searched but we could not find how they were getting in. Naturally we had to close the room off so they wouldn't find their way into the rest of the house.
Glad to report a hard frost slowed them down and I think as of yesterday we killed our last one. Hopefully I can move back in.
During my exile more time was spent in the kitchen. When the temperatures start to drop and the days grow shorter soup is often our evening meal. This particular one is a favorite. (If anyone would like the recipe - let me know - always love to share).
Well so glad you stopped to visit. Hope you return soon.
In the meantime have a blessed week.

A Beautiful October Day
It was a beautiful October day. The skies were pure blue - no clouds were found.
Lovely colors were all around.
A gentle autumn breeze rustled through the dry standing corn.
Warm sunshine cast long shadows on the hillside.
A harvest of veggies provided an abundant feast.
Yes it was a beautiful October day.
So glad you stopped by. We hope you will be back soon!

Changes
Goldenrod

Vibrant oranges and reds

Dusk
It is that time of day when the sun has set and night begins to fall.
The birds quiet and the crickets start to call.
Where reflection of what has passed
makes room for what will come.
Have a lovely week!

Last Waltz of Summer
Summer's Waltz |
The days are still warm but there is a knowing that cooler temperatures are on their way.
Cook outs...
berry picking...
and bike rides will soon be exchanged by other activities.
For now though I plan to enjoy this last waltz of summer.
Hope you will too! Have a great week.
Hugs Debbie
