I can't believe a week has gone by since my last post! I had myself convinced it hadn't been that long. This week has been sad. A relative passed away unexpectedly over the weekend. That was rough. While waiting for hospital updates I finished my Thinking of Autumn hat. Pictures to come. I am always amazed by how calm I feel when I knit. My mind is able to focus instead of flying off into a million different directions. The relative that passed away was young, a couple years younger then me. When someone younger then you passes away it is scary. It brings the fragility of life smack into your face reminding me to savor every moment I have with my family on this earth.
I promise the rest of this post is full of happier things. The other way I have been occupying my time is taking pictures of food. I have finally picked a photography project that I cant wait to see finished. I would like to make a family photo cookbook of my favorite and most memorable family recipes. I will cook them, photograph them and eventually make them into a book for us to keep. More on this in a future post.
Since I had food and photography on the brain I took some pretty pictures of our harvest. Hope they make you hungry!
Those really ARE beautiful photos of your harvest!! They look like they are floating.
I'm so glad you are well -- and I'm so sorry for your family's loss & week in the valley. :( I can only think that you must have been a great comfort to your sisters. I love that knitting was there as a comfort to YOU, and the clicking of the needles helped the moments go by more easily. Hooray, once again for those knitting needles!!
