You know I love you. I just need you to stall your pumpkins and picturesque foliage until I'm done editing. You can totally do that for me, right?
Except for the whole apple-cider-and-dressing-up-like-zombies-at-the-farmers-market thing. I'm ready for that.
Or cider made from zombie apples. Or just hard cider made from zombies. I could be ready for that, too.

| Sure. I have a black thumb. But at least I can take pictures of these flowers before I kill them. |

| fun fact: these flowers are from the neighbor's flowerbed--we mistakenly thought it was ours ...awkward. |

You have beautiful, and very photogenic, furry children. (Or do normal people still call them dogs?)
ReplyDeleteAnd flowers are meant to be shared. Your neighbors should be nice. (Especially if they have the barking dogs that don't stop barking all day.)
I really had to study that first black and white picture. At first glance I thought there was a crow roasting on the grill! Turns out it's corn on the cob with the husks still on. I did a double take.
By the way...
fall is dropping in in a big way here on long island too. unfortunately, most of my pictures are of myself and my eye makeup and my hair and my cats, so you wouldn't notice.
ReplyDeleteexcept that new pictures may start having me wearing hoodies or what not.
true story: we specifically bought a propane grill (i know, okay - I KNOW) and we've used it twice. in four months. i should be ashamed.
and also planning big barbecues.
Love those pictures of flowers! I'm a bit of a black thumb too...so I can relate to the necessity of capturing those flowers' lives before they wither away.
ReplyDeleteDang it! Now I totally want a freaking hamburger!
PS: Still love the dogs. The window/doggie door idea is totally brilliant! Why don't more people think to do something like that?
Love the pictures. That is one hell of a lobster!
ReplyDeleteooh re: doggie 'window'. when i lived in florida and would let the cats out on our enclosed patio, i'd just open one of the windows. usually my office window. we'd open the patio door and half of the time, they'd run to a window like 'what the fuck is wrong with you? open the window, i want to go out'.
ReplyDeletenot so much now. one, we're in new york and do not have an enclosed area that is safe for them. two, it's kind of cold me to just have windows open. and three, we're on the second floor.
So. That lobster. I want that.
ReplyDeleteActually, I want to live in your house.
Adopt me?
I really must make sure that I have food readily available before I read your blog, my darling.
ReplyDeleteI have a BRILLIANT recipe for barbeque corn on the cob if you like cilantro and garlic that I can send you.
The pictures were beautiful, and as always I had to spin my computer around to share them with the closest person. The guy eating at the table next to me didn't seem to appreciate my disturbing him. Eh, fuck 'im.
Rodney looks delicious.
