Filling Up, Grandbaby, Changes


1. This is plain fun, like playing with Playdough. I fill a ziploc bag with manicotti filling, then snip off a corner.  With a little squeeze, the cheese filling pipes into the shell.
2. In anticipation of his arrival, I buy him something fleecy soft to wear... with ears on it.
3. This may be the last mowing of the season. Those two raspberries may also be the last of the season. The branch of forsythia that's flowering is most definitely the last of the season and the three tomatoes are sadly the last. Cold weather is forecast and I think about all these "lasts" when I'm working around the property.

  1. oh how i envy that part of living in the south, leonora—forsythia blossoms in october! may was the last time they graced us with their company round these parts.

    oh boy, baby clothes. tell me about it. i am not a big shopper but i have been going crazy buying my grandbaby clothes. there are still more choices with girl's stuff, but boy's clothes have definitely gotten more fun. in about a week i'm heading to vermont with all my goodies.....

  2. Yes, I was just thinking that it's time to plow my garden over. I think I've gotten the last of the tomatoes.

  4. The manicotti filling looks wonderfully easy and rather run. Congrats on the future family arrival. We keep hoping for a final lawn cutting, but not happening...yet.

  5. A new grandbaby! That's exciting. I have a new great nephew and got a text from him already that had his sweet face and "Hi Aunt Lynn!"

    Good tip on the manicotti.
