Autumn Gatherings ~

Welcome friends to Scattered Seed Samplers.

I can now officially breath a sigh of relief, all 

Little Sparrow Pinkeep Club kits, Etsy and Ebay orders

are shipped and on their way...yay!

Every year I get a craving for a good caramel apple, 

how about you?

I'm having fun experimenting with some 

 non traditional ideas...

This is a very tasty choice if you love pears like I do!

Makes the pears look so wonderful for this

Autumn harvest time of year!

Do you like your caramel apples plain...

Using hand picked twigs work great for a 

more rustic looking handle!

Or, do you prefer your apple with nuts?

I must have nuts on mine!  

Here are some great ideas to make eating a caramel 

apple a little less messy...

Apple chunks dipped in caramel with a toothpick,

how easy is that!

Or...

Scoop out the core and fill with caramel, 

let stand until firm, then cut into wedges!

So many possibilities...have fun being creative in your

kitchen!

Here are some recent farm field pictures...

We have lots of dried Queen Ann's lace all over the farm

and I love how it's surrounded by these sweet 

little daisy like weeds.

Such simplistic beauty!

I love any kind of  Sunflower plant this time of year!

Look at these colorful beauties, especially 

the ones that are already drying up near the top!

Yesterday, to my surprise there was an artist

all set up on the roadside painting our second cutting

of hay bales in our field...

I stopped to chat with her on my way back from the 

post office...she even uses a neat looking chair!

I love surprises, look at what was gifted to me this 

morning by my friend Ona...

 She had stopped early and dropped off these wild 

branches of Bittersweet she found growing

in the woods!  

She said this wild variety has larger berries than 

the "American Bittersweet" she has growing by her house.

There was a cluster of an old wasp nest laying in the bottom of 

my wheel barrow...I added it to the branch for a 

special touch!

Ona and I are planning a Bittersweet outing 

next week, I can hardly wait!

A word fitly spoken is like 

apples of gold 

in pictures of silver.

Enjoy a great Autumn weekend!
