Sweet Treats and New Christmas Ornaments
We had a dinner with family at my parent's farm in Wisconsin. She ordered a Buche de Noel cake which came with candied cranberries on top.
It was delicious!
Decorations on a side table.
I also went to a German Christkindlmarket in Chicago.
One shaped like a tear drop hand painted in Austria with a wolf, some rabbits and birds. Another from Germany decorated with pearls.
Moving Day
Yesterday I helped one of my daughters move to a new place. Here we are packing her bedroom.
And bathroom. Just moving across town in Chicago. Here is her old view.
The Farmer's Market
A highlight of summer is the local farmers' market. I always love a good farmers' market.
Being in the Midwest, summer brings a bounty of fruits and vegetables as well as local meats, cheeses, handmade breads and soaps.
Loving these handmade natural soaps.
Jake's Meats from Michigan is where I stock up on Great Lakes wild caught fish and pork, chickens and more.
