It was a bit summery yesterday....but I was happy to have fall back today.
The morning air was crisp and beautiful....and I was tickled to catch up to Patty on my morning walk. That's the joy of having a friend right here in the neighborhood.
Did you notice the reflection in that ever-present heart puddle on the sidewalk?
Julie S. sent me a photo of this stubby pumpkin stem. I smiled because she didn't take a photo of the whole pumpkin....she knew it's all about the stem! (sorry....I just love saying that!)
This is one from my archives...just look at that crazy stem!
Don't you wish you could meet the person who purchased that stem depicted in your archives??!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the reflection in the heart puddle!
Ha ha....yes. I already had all the pumpkins I needed when I saw it....or it would have come home with me! Sometimes you have to leave the good stems for someone else.
DeleteI noticed there’s an acorn sitting by the stem! Got to love your heart puddle.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness....I didn't notice that! I wonder if Julie noticed that! Way to go Cherie!
DeleteEach year for as long as I’ve had kiddos, part of our autumn decor is a pumpkin “family” - one to represent each one of us. And of course, we look for sizes to be proportional to each of us, but a good stem is also an absolute must🧡👍🏻☺️
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful tradition! Pumpkins have personality...just like us humans. Thanks for sending the photo via email. I'll share it on the blog!
DeleteHooray - the acorn has been spotted! And yes, it was deliberate - I loved the perspective and surface contrasts. (it was lying all by itself on the table next to the pumpkin, so I moved it up beside the stem)
ReplyDeleteYay! Good call on your part! It was like a little secret waiting to be discovered. Thanks Julie!
