Happy Friday Evening....

Hello ladies.. How are you all ...
I had said last night in my posting that I wanted to get some Fall decorating done today..
Well, you know what they say about the best laid plans... smile..
This morning first thing my dear hubby (whose birthday is today.. grin) brought in a huge bag of these..

These were the half ripe ones which we love just the way they are for sandwiches and such..
But most of them were ripe so I made a huge pot of this..

Fresh tomato soup for the freezer...
And then the birthday guy had some company come out to wish his Dad a happy birthday.. smile...


And he wanted to visit HIS dear little dog.. Sammi..
Sammi is always sooo glad to see Dustin...grin..
Anyway, when Dustin  comes home I start cooking for him..
A loaf of homemade bread and a big bottle of strawberry jam and his favorite.. a pot of fried rice to take back with him.. smile..
Anyway, I eventually got down to the bottom of the drive to this tree..


We call this a Pepperberry tree but I really don't know the proper name..
The berries are very nice for decorating..


A nice orangey red color...
Well, while I am snipping some off it starts to pour rain..
Great... grin...
I head back to the house..
Sammi thinks I am a bit slow and decides to scratch his itchy ear..
grin..
The sun is out up there.. Crazy weather....smile..
I looked over towards our fields and look what I saw..
Isn't that beautiful sight... Our God is so faithful..
He is still the same as the day the very first rainbow appeared..
What an awesome God we serve... ..
Then it is back to the house with a big handful of branches and I got started on this..
The kitchen windowbox...
Is that the phone I hear...
Yupppp.... Dear boy left his jacket here with his bankcard in the pocket so we drive over to the Big Stop to meet him halfway..
And now it is too dark to do anymore..
Tomorrow, Lord willing we head back down to the cottage to do some closing up chores...
So I  guess I will need to do the rest next week..

For now, I need to go and make my Sweetie a nice treat for his supper.. He got into the homemade bread earlier and was not hungry until now..

Gotta go my dears...
Love to you all..

  8. Happy Belated Birthday to Terry, Faye... glad you got to spend some time with Dustin.
    I know all too well about those "best laid plans"... some days never go as I had planned, but...
    Those tomatoes look yummy and the soup looks even better but my first thought when I saw them was fried green tomatoes! (Can you tell I'm from the South? If it can't be fried, I've probably never eaten it. *hehe*)

  9. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO TERRY...and how sweet that your son came home...even though he did reap the rewards of the day...lol

    What a huge full Pepperberry tree...very lovely.

    I couldn't figure out what the photo was and still couldn't till I read the paragraph below the pot of soup...they looked like very pale cherries or something...anyway...yummmmm.

  11. Hi, Faye, I am glad you are back home safe and sound. It would be neat to have a summer cottage and so much fun too. :) Happy birthday to your husband. Your tomato soup looks delicious.

    I had to ask Quentin if we lived in a town or rural area. :) He says we live in a rural area. We are a few miles from a small town that only has one traffic light and half an hour from a small city where we do our shopping. :)

    Have a great Sunday.

  15. Hi was looking at this post again and realized that the "Pepper Berry" I believe is called a Mountain Ash Tree. The Robin's eat them berries.
