Hello, friends. July was so miserably hot this year that I was in fierce dread of August. However, a "cold" front dipped down into the South, and ... tada!! ... the temps dropped about 12 degrees, and August is much better than usual!
I've been knitting and sewing small quilts for NICU babies. I've been taking a break from the farmers market, but I'm still making a few things at home, like a batch of shampoo bars yesterday. Around July 4, some family came for a lovely visit, and we were outside a lot. Adam built me a new, massive chicken pen, fully enclosed! I'm quite happy with that.
Thanks for visiting today, friends! I'm hoping beyond home that this cooler weather will continue. It feels almost like autumn, my favorite season!

Hey Mary Kathryn. So good to see a post from you. Your pictures are just wonderful, all of them! Don't you hope this cooler weather hangs around for a while...like the entire month of August! I feel like we skipped Spring and went straight into August...so hot and humid. Now I feel all behind with everything and the yard and garden both look awful. Did you get my email and the pictures? Hope it reached you. Love, Henny
How lovely to see a post from you today! Belated anniversary wishes to the two of you💗💗.
Looks like you still find lots to keep you busy. Hopefully your weather stays on the cool side for August. I think we all feel more comfortable when it's not so very hot. I, of course, am already thinking of AUTUMN. 🍂🍂🍂
I'm happy for you, Mary Kathryn <3 and I hope you don't get another heat wave.
We are in a warm spell, but it's supposed to drop back into the 70's next week. I'm a little worried when that happens, because of the one cool-summer year when my figs did not ripen at all!
I love seeing those grandbabies!!
Love your posts, so easy to read and fun! Those string quilts are so pretty, I always forget how much I love the look of them. The pie looks yummy, and I'm going to try the tater tot dish!
