Too Soon…

September 22, 2014 By Deanna Piercy 6 Comments

photo by Deanna Piercy I want to paste these first fallen leaves back on the trees and nudge the sun a bit higher in the sky. I haven’t had enough suppers of sweet corn on the cob, my salty fingertips slick with butter. I never got around to making ice cream with juicy peaches and…

What I’m Into (October 2013 Edition)

November 6, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 3 Comments

 Autumn on Apple Tree Farm I’m rather late with this but we just returned from our New Orleans trip late Monday night and I’m still recovering. David and I both started with some mild cold symptoms on our way home. So far we’ve kept the crud at bay with regular doses of “The Potion” (I’ll…

October 12, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 4 Comments

My POW (Project Of the Week) was to decorate for fall. I started yesterday and pretty much finished up today. I still have some things left in my fall decorating box which I may add in the coming days and I do want to get some more pumpkins and some gourds. But for the most…

Chilly Saturday

October 5, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 3 Comments

We had some thunderstorms toward morning which meant that Shiloh was by my side of the bed panting from about 5:30 on. I think we need to buy him a Thunder Shirt. I took him out for a walk at a little after 7 and boy, oh boy, was it chilly! I had been too…

Keeping busy

First, how about an “Autumn on Apple Tree Farm” picture? I took this while walking Shiloh this morning: So, what have we been up to the past several days? Well, it hasn’t been sleeping, that’s for certain. This past Thursday we went to see Mary Poppins at the McSwain Theater here in town (they show…

Geraniums and Pumpkins ~ On the Cusp of Change

September 23, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 3 Comments

Today is the Autumnal Equinox, the first day of Autumn, that perfect balance of light and dark. I’m truly a summer girl but Autumn certainly has its charms. Our temperatures are cooling but still nice and warm during the day. This coming week we should see highs in the 80s and lows in the 50s…

30 Days of Thankfulness: Day 8

November 9, 2012 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

On this eighth “Day of Thankfulness” I am thankful for sunshine. As my regular readers know, I’m a summer girl. I need warmth and sunshine. I enjoy the occasional rainy afternoon but for the most part I like to see the sun. It’s been beautiful since we returned from New Orleans earlier this week (we…
