Wow, if you are like me, you are wondering what happened to summer. Here on the west coast it’s like someone threw a switch and suddenly the temperature dropped, and the rain started. I still have a bunch of green tomatoes outside, they have to come in to get ripe on the counter.

I got a couple of new blueberry bushes from a local farm and planted them – I couldn’t believe it, I planted them the day before the rain started. That means next year I should have a couple of bowls of yummy blueberries, if my middle son doesn’t eat them all first, as he has a major fondness for massive quantities of blueberries.

It’s time to start battening down the hatches for winter, I guess. But I’m ready. I just bought the cutest pair of boots….
