Wanderlust and mushrooms

October 18, 2020

Good Sunday Morning. I am treating myself to a slow quiet morning.

The weather has certainly turned a bit cooler this week, especially the nights feel full-on fall. This morning the temperature was 38F when I got up.

XO Kim

  Hi Debbie – guess pumpkin spice in FL is a reminder of your life up North? I had a second cup of coffee (plain) this morning, something I rarely do. I gives me the shakes if I drink more than one cup. Thanks for the virtual peek and hugs to you! Stay safe. xo kim

Beautiful photos Kim. My husband and I talked about the same thing this year – selling the farm, buying an Rv and traveling. I thought we were the only ones crazy enough to consider traveling with chickens. LOL!

  Oh Ruth – so funny. Nice to hear from you. I guess this year of strange things has prompted some us to think of things we never considered before. Of course the chickens would have to travel! I hope you and your family have remained healthy. I expect you feel as we do, that we work all the time and there is never any down time. Wouldn’t trade the farming lifestyle but… xo kim

    Actually our farm has been our refuge this year and I am so thankful for it. Traveling might sound fun but I don’t think it’s for me. We have stayed well so far but got word today that my father-in-law tested positive. He is in the hospital in Ohio about 2 1/2 hrs from us. My husband says he sounds ok and is not on oxygen. It’s a helpless feeling though so we are just praying.

  Hi Janine – we are fortunate to see lots of different critters, at least I think so, so I love nature so much. Of course I would try to make them pets if I could. Thank you for stopping in and saying hello. xo kim

Kim, I love your photographic eye….so many of your pictures I can imagined framed and on my wall, but I’d have a hard time choosing! All God’s creatures feel safe and cared for, it’s beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Ginny

Do take more mornings for yourself Kim so that we are treated to your tales and of course your photos. So the homemade pizza for breakfast sounds good and I believe pizza has all the food groups in each slice. I saw the chili sauce (at least I think that’s what it is in the mason jars) – my mom used to love that chili sauce as she grew up eating it slathered on toast, or eggs. My grandparents would make Red Tomato Chow-Chow and Green Tomato Chow-Chow. My mom did not “put up” anything but once I was at Honey Baked Ham and saw the same type of chili sauce – it was my new fun present for my mom. I loved the critters, the turtle eating tomato – who knew? A walk in nature sets your day off right as does pizza (I could eat pizza any time of day).
