Domestic Violence Awareness Month

 


October is domestic violence awareness month.  Saw this installation at the Pubic Market in ROC and was excited.  Education is key for our community.  Willow is here to help anyone in need.  

Willow donate

This is one of a few charities in my city I support.  The Break the Silence megaphone is in this public space where many of us go every week.  


May this help to Amplify Hope in Rochester, NY.

Homemade Pies in my Kitchen

Fall is here so time to enjoy the fall fruits as pies in my kitchen.  homemade is best.  Apple pie is the best with my choice of locally grown apples.  What is your favorite to bake with?  

As for the pumpkins we grew this year, the vine did not fully ripen them so they went back where they started, compost pile.  

My state & city are so beautiful. this is from one of the four Fredrick Law Olmstead parks in Rochester, Genesee Valley Park. It was a self care day and we enjoyed the quiet tranquil park.  The water is the Genesee river.  As we listened to nature on this bridge, two kayakers paddled down the river.

October Beauty

 

Final harvest from the two large pots on my deck from this summer.  could not go completely without tomatoes.  These will ripen over the next two weeks and be amazing in salads.  

Currently enjoying the mustard & kale from the fall plantings in the vegetable garden.  We love fall veggies as much as spring veggies.  


I will be trying to make fresh pumpkin for pie this year from our compost pile volunteer.  Happy to share pics of this project next week.  Fingers crossed it works well.
