Autumn Blessings.....




Hello! Well it is all change here in Devon, it seems that with the new school term beginning  the first leaves on the trees are beginning to fall.....



And Autumn breezes are beginning to blow...

This is my favourite time of year, I have found myself  'nesting' and generally getting ready for the Winter, tidying the sheds-( what a job!!) sorting out goodies for the winter markets, making sure the cupboards are all tidy, filling the pantry with flour, raisins and baking ingredients and generally looking forward to warm suppers and cosy evenings...




I have been growing  herbs over the summer and am now drying them and reading all about how to use them in foods,teas, soaps,shampoos and medicines...



 It is wonderfully interesting and rewarding....but I still have so much to learn! A lifetime of learning ahead I think....and a new career interest??


I hope that the summer has treated you all kindly and I send you many.....



Warm Wishes for a Wonderful Weekend...
