Autumn winners -


First and foremost, as promised, today Bob drew the name of the winner of 
the knitted cowl!  There were 22 comments however a few of you passed 
on wanting your name included for one reason or another, which was fine. 

I'm happy to announce the winner is VEE a long time blogging 
friend at A Haven For VeeShe is located up north in one of
 my most favorite states, Maine!
Congratulations Vee - I will get started on your choice of cowl (brown)
 asap. I know it will get cold up your way very soon! So listen for the
 click clack of my knitting needles down here in still balmy North Carolina!
I'll get your address later and then let you know when your little gift is
 on the way. . . .arriving before it snows perhaps.



I purchased beautiful freshly harvested butternut squash on the recent 
pumpkin farm visit. Hoping they will be as tasty as the ones from there
 last year - much more flavorful than any bought at the grocery store!


Speaking of cold days and nights ahead, one of our favorite homemade
 soups is roasted butternut squash. . . . . . I'll be in the kitchen later this
 week preparing a batch for supper and the freezer.

Thanks to all of who participated in the drawing for the knitted cowl.

Just so you know, Bob and I decided to draw a second name which we are
 going to keep secret for the time being! Once I finish Vee's cowl I'm sure 
I'll have plenty more long, cold winter evenings for knitting . . . . . so
you may be a winner also!

Enjoy your week - we are having perfect October weather here, 
and especially colorful sunrises . . . . . worth waking early to view.
