Good Morning from The Farm + Huge Craftsy Class Sale

Thanks everyone for the heartfelt comments on yesterday's post. I really appreciate everyone's input. One comment struck me that a reader added to the discussion and said she doesn't comment anymore because she reads blogs on her ipad and she hates to type on it. I am with you on that. The ipad is so convenient for browsing but give me a keyboard anyday so I can bang away quickly on it. I think I am guilty of the same. If I am ordering anything on-line, I do it on my computer. No patience for that little screen keyboard (just saying Apple).

Now that Julia is back to school and on the bus very early, I've had a chance to go outside and experience the glorious autumn early morning light. I love this time of year when the sun starts getting at a lower angle in the sky. The beautiful natural colors start taking on that gorgeous autumn glow. 

Here is one of the little sheds that I have surrounded with hostas. It is filled with some odds and ends. It was Julia's playhouse when she was little but now is a catchall. Every morning the light is just spectacular around it and the hosta blooms dance in the air. The photo doesn't do it justice. 

Do you remember when I painted my studio door this crazy bright yellow color? I love it. So cheerful. 

 

This year, I planted morning glories on both sides of the door. They are growing haphazardly around the door along strings. Every few days I have to rein them into the string set up. I think I will do this every year. I love how the dark blue of the Grandpa Ott morning glory bounces off the yellow color.

Here is a jumble of color in the little garden outside the studio.
