I feel like we’re all saying where the hell did this year go, those of a certain age anyway. November’s been an interesting month full of photo walks, a hansom canine guest, cooking large and small, my beloved #fjnine challenge and a lovely act of kindness.

As you can see we’re beginning our hibernation. Miss V rules the roost from her comfy nest. This sorely needed after our wonderful house guest went home. You can tell who was the brat…

I didn’t spend as much time at Gramma’s table as I would have liked but I loved what came from it. Yes I know it’s not your average “sculpture” but I’m sure you’re not surprised.

The fjnine challenge keeps both sides of my brain firing in a most interesting way. It’s a truly safe place among wonderful creatives. I’m beginning to believe my hype…

It’s too cold to walk bare handed. Life on Stowe Lane is so good on so many levels. Until next month…
