The Creaky Shed: Fresh Produce Greenwich UK

I love the name of this shop and the hand-drawn font they used for the sign. The Creaky Shed is a green grocer in Greenwich UK. The gallery of photographs with seasonal displays outside the shop plus more can be seen here. Looks as if they are all set for Halloween decorating with all the pumpkins. See you later with news of my car. Fingers crossed. xo

Pumpkin Season is Here

It's here. I see pumpkins on doorsteps already but few colors in the leaves in my area. via

Halloween decorations are starting to appear too. I made this greeting from an image I photographed from my Royal Book of Crests and added the seasonal text. I saved it to my phone so I can text it to friends later in the month. I really wouldn't want a bat on my family crest or coat of arms, would you? But this little bat has a very friendly face and is rather cute when all the other bats on the antiquarian book page were pretty scary. Happy Halloween! xo

Halloween Cats Escaping Ink Bottle

This is a very clever drawing. Black cats and kittens are in high demand with Halloween approaching. via

Cottage with Fall Decor

Scenes like this are just around the corner though the cottages might not be this charming. This time of day, when the inside lights go on, is my favorite. via

Very Cozy Room

I like this cozy, casual living room and all that surrounds it. via I hope you had a spooktacular Halloween.

City Dwellers Love Pumpkins Too

These three stoops are in Boston. They are all taking fall decor to the next level that easily transitions into Halloween. via It is raining like crazy at my cottage as I await watching 60 Minutes on CBS and The Durrells in Corfu and The Collection on PBS. Enjoy your Sunday evening too.

Halloween Hand Pies

How cute are these? I would love to bite into one right now with my morning coffee. Catherine, a reader, found the recipe and more photos here. Thanks, Catherine!

Pumpkin Fields Forever

Looks like a good harvest, doesn't it?

I wonder if this is a pick your own pumpkin field?

Hope so. They are just begging to become jackolanterns.

BEST Owl Photo

Owls and Halloween go together, don't they? This is the best barn owl photo I have ever seen. via

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Hope it's spooktacular!

Double Decker Sliding Barn Doors

I still like this sliding barn door trend, especially on this converted barn/home. via

I woke up early after a half day of mowing yesterday and I'm almost finished with my fall cleanup. I was shocked into getting it finished after I saw photos of an early dusting of snow in Connecticut and upstate New York this week. It is unusually warm today and that's good for the trick or treaters. Happy Halloween. xo

Vintage Halloween Photo from NJ

Isn't this a wonderful photo? There was a story yesterday in the Star Ledger about Vintage Photos of Halloween in New Jersey and this one was my favorite. It was taken at a Halloween parade in Dover NJ and is undated. I hope the person who was pushing this Pumpkin Pram was in costume too. The pumpkin boy's expression is hard to read but I don't think he's too happy about being trapped inside this fabulous hand-made costume. I think it's adorable and perfect for keeping him nice and warm.

Haunted House?

I'm sure these people don't get many trick or treaters! It really does look spooky, doesn't it? via

Pumpkin Path for Halloween

This is quite wonderful, isn't it? They must be having a party! Houses like this don't get too many trick or treaters as a rule. Kids like for the houses to be closer together and this long driveway might be a very scary walk in the dark. via

Spider Attack

Simple.

Understated.

Just Wonderful.

Belated Halloween

I'm sorry I didn't see this sooner. Better late than never, right? So windy today. The leaves have blown back in my yard too. Oh well, maybe they will blow away again before the day is over. See you later. Have a great Sunday. xo
