Happy Hallowe'en


Saw this vintage postcard on Pinterest and it brought back some childhood memories. Did you ever bob for apples? Hardest thing ever unless you could corral an apple with a long stem! Hope you have a wonderful Halloween. It's a busy night in our neighborhood. I am writing this post in between running to the door to hand out treats. We usually get 130+ trick or treaters!

Rock Star

Do you recognize this little tin can? Yes, it's Betty, painted on a sandstone rock by my young cottage neighbor, Miss Abby. I think she did a wonderful job of capturing what Betty looked like before I repainted the stripe and removed the decals. She even included Brownie, the little rabbit who used to nibble the clover beside Betty almost every day last summer. Every time I look at this rock it makes me smile :) Cottage neighbors are the best!
