It’s a cool 87 degrees today- fall must be close! I saw a sign advertising Pumpkin Spice Lattes; that confirms it. The summer garden is a wreck, and it is time to start over with the fall garden.

My leafy crops that I started a few weeks ago are starting to get their true leaves, and the yard long beans are finally putting out beans, desperately trying to remain intact through the transition.

I think I’ll let them stay. 🙂

I made spiced muffins with some gingery sand pear sauce, and the aroma was very autumnal. That’s a real word, by the way, autumnal.

I have reserved pears for a special recipe: Nana Clement’s Conserve.

Fall decorations, time to emerge from the depths of the shed! It’s time to decorate for fall!
