October Days...

Ok, I guess it is October now. I have had such a super great four day long weekend. I am sad to see it go, but I am definitely sure that it is now October! We are having some amazing sunshine still, thanks to global warming, I guess. But the night is coming sooner and sooner these days. I made my last batch of jam for a while on Saturday. This creation was strawberry plum - the plums being from our backyard tree. I do believe that we have enough jam for a while: plum-peach, pear-blackberry, raspberry-strawberry, spicy pear and peach. I don't think my friends mind, though. Everyone who has tried some seems to love it, especially Adam. I say it's pretty hard to go wrong with fresh fruits and seven cups of sugar! Oh Ya!Ummm..what else...we had a really subdued Thanksgiving dinner with Nate and Semi yesterday. Everything was perfect, the dinner, the dessert (champagne truffle cake from Nate's cafe, mmmmm), the company. It was nice to keep it really small this year. After a nice sunny walk in da' hood today with Adam, I tried to spend the rest of day relaxing today but my knob of a landlord seems to think that loud, random, unnecessary house repairs need to be done on a holiday Monday. He was banging away for hours...sooo annoying! I can't wait until we can buy our own house. I don't even care what city it is in, just give me some space of my very own! Soon, soon grasshopper....I will be at the mercy of no one's carpentry whims except my own!
