Silver Wedding Anniversary

 Well, I'm not sure how we achieved it, but me and the Toad celebrated

our Silver Wedding Anniversary this past week.

How can it possibly have been 25 years?  That actually scares me to think

how much has happened in that time, but how quickly the years

have flown past.

Anyhoo, we had a lovely day, including a marvellous lunch out, and

are now working on year 26!

As You Like It Challenge (DT) Harvest Colours

 So, here we are, just over halfway through September and into the

very beginning of autumn.  This time of year is always the time of harvest festivals

and that is why for this challenge at AS YOU LIKE IT

we're asking for your favourite Harvest Colours

I love the warmth of harvest colours, the golds, reds, and greens of ripe

fruit and vegetables, a season of plenty, a full table of tasty things,

Like this little chap with his golden beetroot, delicious!

As You Like It Challenge (DT) Autumn or Winter

 Brace yourselves, I'm on time this week!  It's another new challenge from the

AS YOU LIKE IT CHALLENGE team and this one is

Your Favourite - Autumn or Winter (and why)

With the exception of wasps, I love everything about autumn, the soft light, the gorgeous colours, sunny days but (in theory) cooler nights.  I don't even mind it getting darker earlier because I can be cosied up indoors!
