* Due to a little miss Hurricane Sandy headed our way, I am writing all posts in advance this week. My thoughts & prayers are with everyone in her path. May you be safe & well!
No Fall is complete without our annual trip to Wightman's Farm. This year, the trip came on a cool, cloudy Sunday in early October. The leaves were just starting to change, the crispness was just beginning to tinge the air &, as always, there were plenty of plump pumpkins, fresh apple cider and homemade donuts. & boy, did we indulge in the Fall treats!
A gallon of apple cider for me, a gallon of apple cider for RZ. Six donuts for me, six donuts for RZ. One pumpkin for me, one pumpkin for RZ. Hey, fair is fair! The delicious donuts & yummy apple cider only lasted about one week but our pumpkins sat & patiently waited for the day when I would decorate them for Halloween.
With Halloween fast approaching, that day came last week- time to decorate our pumpkins & send our Halloween cards. I was feeling a bit lazy, to put it mildly.
I went with a minimalist look for our Halloween cards to spread some "season's creepings" to our family & friends across the miles:
Then I turned my attention to my pumpkins- two orange pumpkins from the farm & two white pumpkins recently acquired after my white pumpkin obsession. Once again, it was just me, pumpkins & a black Sharpie. While one little white pumpkin got away with going naked, I went with fun swirls, polka dots & stripes for the others:
Less you think the polka dot pumpkin is suffering from a disease, that is actually one metallic silver polka dot. All in all, not too bad for a lazy girl's Halloween!
Seasons creeping to you!
that halloween card is too cute!! will be sending good thoughts that hurricane sandy passes through without incident!
