14 August 2010: Sunny Disposition

I bought some sunflowers at the farmers market today and added them to some peppers and tomatoes from our garden...loves the HDR effect of both of these photos!

We went to the Farmer's Market today and there were so many peppers and tomatoes. I wish I had time to make more salsa but not this weekend since I am only home for about 48 hours. It took all of my control not to start buying pumpkins for the fall/halloween. I guess I can wait a couple more weeks for when we can go out and pick them at our favorite pumpkin patch. It's almost time for the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!

You expected another cold weather picture...sorry to disappoint. It is FRIGID in central NY and pretty much in most of the U.S. (except Southern CA of course). The high today in Jamesville, NY is supposed to be 4 degrees! Are you kidding me?!?! I am really glad I didn't make that trip to Minneapolis today where it is -25 degrees! So to add a touch of heat to the blog, the dried hot peppers came out of hiding from their little container. These are actually peppers I grew in the garden 2 years ago and they have been drying ever since. Luckily I don't have to go out anywhere today and my heat is working so I think I will stay put and get some work done!
