I did some gardening on Saturday - mostly making compost, which I have to check tomorrow morning to see if it's actually hot-composting and not just sitting there rotting...



I'm really contemplating getting chickens in to deal with the grass...

These are called "1-hour baskets":



They really do only take an hour - if that! And once you know the pattern and how it goes together, you can start getting fancy with prints...



It's a really good pattern for prints...



And yesterday, I made pumpkin pie. Tonight, my bible study group and I ate it.



Specifically, the recipe is "Bourbon-spiked pumpkin pie with praline pecan sauce" and is a blend of recipes from Smitten Kitchen and The Sugar Hit.

Deeee-licious!

And that's it for Wednesday. Phew. Time to sleeeeeep!

Mmmm, I have had that pie recipe before, and now I am even more pie-envious. The praline sauce would be a perfect complement, om nom nom....

The praline sauce is definitely amazing! I didn't really make this as a 'pie' because I a) didn't have a pie dish, b) didn't have the time to make the dough, so I just made a crumb base out of sweet biscuits (cookies).

It was still good. ;)

Your yard looks so cute! And that pie looks delicious.

It's a pretty small yard, but right now, it takes quite a bit of effort. I'm trying to reduce the effort while increasing the output. In suburbia. It's a job...

Whoa, those look like really useful bags! They seem to be roughly the same size as longboxes - the boxes you buy to store comic books.
