If You Decorate It....They Will Come!


Our Northwest rain has finally passed by and we have
been left with sweet, sweet brisk and sunny
autumn days! Glory, glory...it is beautiful outside.

So counting today we have 15 days to go till we are basting big birds and planning trips to tree farms...I can't wait. I have not kept my promise to blog daily....unless writing blogs in your mind and virtually posting them count. I will step it up for the next couple of weeks and wrap my arms around this upcoming holiday and give it the hugs that it deserves.

Before I share a tid~bit or two....take a gander at what Mr. Squirrel Fuzzy Pants did to my Halloween display....

Remember this from a couple of weeks ago?

If you decorate it....
...they will come...

Now...I do not remember placing corn in the boxwood hedge...

I have big plans for these cobs....I think there is
a snowman in our future that may need a pipe...

And onto a bit of Thanksgiving putz~ing...my can
of brown spray paint and I make quite a pair...
No pumpkin can hide from the wrath of paint that sprays from a can...

Ripening acorn squash and stray pine cones ~ safe inside
from Mr. Squirrel...

The simple beauty and natural~ness
of this wee display really speaks
to the spirit of Thanksgiving...
and you can eat it too...

I am now off to paint some drop cloth remnants to use on
our Thanksgiving table...and but of course I will share...after all
that is what this season is all about.

Merry fall to all and to all a good weekend!

Smiles ~ Ramona

Hi Ramona--chuckling here over the squirrel's misadventures with your Halloween display! They are so smart and very bold too. Love the corn in the boxwood...msut be his idea of Fall decor!

I am not too fond of squirrels myself; they eat every bit of birdseed they can get their furry little mitts on! Can't wait to see new drop cloth treasures.

Hi Ramona :)
You are too cute - I can't believe the squirrel ate your corn - that you've had for 15 years!

Your new header is so pretty - I agree with you - the natural decorations are the prettiest to me. Glad your rain has passed - have a great weekend!

That darn squirrel!

Thanks for all your help with making my work sample look so pretty...we shoulda taken pics so you could blog about it haha :) love you mama!

Hi Ramona, loved your post today, very funny. Hey if you saved that corn seed (farmer's wife here) you can actually plant it next year around July/Aug. and it will come up. We planted all kinds of Indian corn and it did wonderfully...just a thought. Of course you may have some come up in your boxwood whether you want it or not because of the squirrel eating and dropping the kernels there! Love your pumpkins...tres chic!
Blessings,
Debbie
I too love spray paint!

Squirrels got to my pumpkins this year, too! Knocked 'em over and chewed 'em up (at least we're assuming squirrels were the culprits--no actual evidence). I put pumpkins out on my porch and back deck every year and this is the first time it's happened. Little stinkers!

Ms. Tee said...

Thanks for the sweet comments! Merry fall to you, too! :)

Hi Ramona,

I can't wait to hear what you think of the movie! I hope you enjoy it as much as we did. I was absolutely GLUED to the screen!!

Even in the most sexually liberated and self-satisfied of nations, many people still yearn to burn more, to feel ready for bedding no matter what the clock says and to desire their partner of 23 years as much as they did when their love was brand new.
The market is saturated with books on how to revive a flagging libido or spice up monotonous sex, and sex therapists say “lack of desire” is one of the most common complaints they hear from patients, particularly women.
