Harvest Moon

Twilight dragonfly
Autumn sun sinks, moon rises
Mist on the bottoms

Autumn Foliage

Thousands of leaves fall
Peppering lawn and walkway
Never enough words

Picklefest 2011

Recent pickling exploits lead to an abundance of, well, pickles.

Honeyed Sunshine Pickles (redubbed Liquid Sunshine)

Spicy Dill Spears

So we invited over some friends and we all shared pickles -- bread and butters, relishes, dill spears, dilly beans, sweet gherkins, pickled eggs, preserved bamboo shoots. We also indulged in a variety of other fermented and leavened products. We were well and properly pickled by the end of the afternoon.

Autumn


Lonely cricket sings
Sunset darkens trees and sky
Folding yukata
