You Might Call This Weekending
October 14, 2013
The day may have been unsettled, cloudy with intermittent showers, but it didn't stop us from accomplishing our usual task of hunting and gathering. Since there was a stop in the rain we headed for the local farmers market, one of the last of the year.
First stop, local apples. I bought Honey Crisp and Braeburn. Apples are, perhaps, my favorite fruit, as they're versatile, come in a variety of flavors, and are constant.
We also bought a few winter squashes, as well as pumpkins for the front porch. The cuisine around here, as is the mood, is very fallish, and could be called Halloween(y).
Weekending with Amanda
Awesome pumpkin display!

Beautiful photos! Nothing better than local apples. We have one more farmer's market left this year. :-(

Love the tombstone! I have a couple of those gray-blue pumpkins on my porch, too, and LOVE them... probably more than I should! :)

Fun! We just scored some Northern Spy apples, fresh off the tree. There is a scrumptious apple pie in our future!

I don't care much for apples but they sure are pretty (and my bos eat enough to make up for my lack). Punkins! Punkins are my thing.
