Daily Notes- November 4

                                      

Tis the Season for Pies.  And the best part of pie is the crust.  This one looks very nice and buttery. I make my edges the same way with thumb and two fingers.

My problems with the Daily Notes boils down to not being able to access my picture file.  I just get text which makes no sense to me.  Something has been lost in translation.  So .......Now I just place a picture on the desktop and then move it to the post.  Then center it.  Having no picture just takes the fun out of it for me.  That's why I was so bummed out over the problem I was having.

Riley has been wanting early morning walks (7 am) and close to midnight walks and several in between during the day.  So I am getting my steps in.  This morning we heard two gun shots- Hunting Season- so I will need to be wearing orange and Riley will need an orange vest so we don't get shot. My Neighborhood is verboten for hunting but the hunters come anyway as the woods and Commons are full of deer.  We had two females and their 3 babies in the backyard on Saturday.  Eating acorns.
The entire month of November.  Gunshot.  I hate it.  More so because the hunters are often drunk.

I have been foraging in the cloth closet and need to go into the Attic.  There is something niggling in the back of my mind- a cloth I think the piece I am sewing needs.  I have a small scrap of it but need to visualize how it might look as a larger piece.  For the search.

Daughter came by before 8am to drop off some tender perennials to over winter in the Attic bathroom as it's unheated but doesn't freeze.  She is finding things as they do end of season cleanup.  These perennials were going into the compost bag so she saved them out.  They are working ocean front today and it will be cold and windy even with the sun shining. They are still doing Fall Cleanup. Riley and I got a bit frosty on the morning walk.  I need to add a hat to my outfit.

G is going off to do a flower delivery for the greenhouse.  Hope he doesn't get lost.  I am going up to the attic.  To look for something with blue and white and some pink.  Riley is going back to looking out the back window in hopes of more deer coming to visit. The grass was frosted white this morning.   The Dark Days Are Here.  Dark by 4 pm.  And I think I need a second sweater this morning.
