chrysanthemums

 



A trip to the nursery for chrysanthemums to put in my window box. I am never quite sure what colour to get so this year I just bought my four favourite colours and I will mix it all up. I just love looking out of my living room window and seeing all the pretty autumn flowers! 

I did quite a bit of cooking on Saturday as well: vegetarian chili, two loaves of pumpkin bread (with raisins), blue corn bread, roasted squash with apples and carrots, and a batch of farro. I love being able to just grab and go. I still have a butternut squash that I will roast and make a soup with later in the week. 

We have our first parent/teacher conferences this week at the Montessori school where I work. I really enjoy these first conferences as it gives me the chance to get to know the families a little bit. I find it helpful to teach the child when I have some understanding of their families. 


We have had some absolutely beautiful weather this weekend! Oh my goodness! Bright blue sunny skies, warm temps, and cool nights. Perfect for autumn!

Normally I blog at a spirit of simplicity but I switched that blog over to wordpress and I'm not convinced it was my best idea. So, I'm going to try this old blogger blog that I never really use and see if I like it better. Sometimes I feel like no one ever blogs anymore. I think more people use instagram or some other site like that but I like blogging so I'm going to keep doing it. I hope you do too.
