Fall is full of Chrysanthemums . . .
I took this photo in October. Does that count for a November quote?

JUAN GRIS Painting circa 1915 brings $20 million . . .

November 6,
When the Juan Gris, came up, three bidders methodically went for the painting, which has a distinguished exhibition history. Two hopefuls on the telephone competed with Franck Giraud, a New York dealer. It was Mr. Giraud who took home the winning $20.8 million bid, paying above the painting’s high $18.5 million estimate. (After the sale he said he had bid on behalf of an American collector whom he declined to name.)
The hammer price includes premiums paid to Christie's. New York Times.

Catching up on neglected domestic tasks this weekend . . .
I have been avoiding housework far too long.
Hopefully I will be able to play catch-up all weekend. Wish me luck!
