last day of Novembrrrr.....

sunrise one morning this week--and yes, it rained most of the day

Adam made a plaster cast of his hand last year in school, and it is quite creepy, but also intriguing to look at.  I put it on top of the piano some time ago, and recently hung an old rusty chandelier with beeswax candles above the piano.  I wired some 'holey' stones from the beach and some blown glass discs to hang from the bottom and somehow, one of the discs got caught in his hand

time waits for no one....especially not me & my amaryllis bulbs.  They are still sitting in the shipping box waiting to be planted, and one has sprouted and curled over to meet the light

"Let me back in the barn!" When you are a 31-year-old Shetland pony, winter and wet snow don't excite, not even with a cozy blanket on.  Thunder is very anxious to get back under cover and have his daily dose of glucosamine.

love his eyes

a good day for soup; the base of the soup being Ontario field tomatoes (yes Ontario tomatoes picked green in October and allowed to ripen in a cold greenhouse)

a fall vegetable stew with lentils. Wonderful with a nice glass of wine (am I the only one drinking here?)
