We've been taking a very brief wall color break to enjoy some of the colors of summer...
... even more tomatoes from the garden, few of these actually make it into the house ...
... roses potted and loving the back deck...
... the most fragrant thing in the garden... our fennel...
... our most unexpected triumph, melon from the garden...
... pesto and fresh pasta, our latest obsession...
... an absolute bounty of cucumbers...
... corn from Connie and Chip's garden...
... light and the rosebud...
... eggplant that turned into the most amazing dinner...
... blueberries in pancakes, sometimes we have this for dinner... delicious...
As you know, I adore summer... as I adore color, even though the search for the perfect grey for the bedroom alludes me. Right now I'm in a mood to hang on to these last days of summer, I so wish the end of summer and transition into what is my very favorite time of year (fall in New England, it really is an experience) didn't have such negative connotations, but alas, it does for now. I think this year needs to be an exploration into why that is and if it should be. In the meantime, my preparations for the coming season have begun. I just got my copy of Amy Butler's Style Stitches and of course, found a new bag that so needs to be made for the coming year. More on that soon. In the meantime, I hope you are enjoying all that is around you and embracing all that is to come. Happy Thursday to you!
