I love Autumn. It is my favourite time of the year. Sadly we have lost our beautiful tree from the front of the driveway which always put on a glorious show at this time of year.
This morning, 4 year old daughter and I walked down our street to photograph the beautiful colours. Unfortunately, this happy time was clouded by an angry lady who took exception to me photographing the street and accused me of being "... that person who carries a camera!" I was very confused by this, but later enquiries yielded knowledge of a feud between this lady and another in our street, perhaps involving photographic evidence.
I am fatigued by the fact that I had to edit this photo, ensuring that no registration plates on the vehicles showed; in case someone was to use that information inappropriately. I am fatigued that I had to photograph my daughter's feet to preserve her identity and I am fatigued that my happy stroll with our little daughter was clouded by this thunderous outburst.
Bring on heaven!
Husband E received this painting from us to 'mark' his birthday (ie I liked the painting very much!). The painting was done by a father at our local school, frame from IKEA.
The colourful candle was made by 5 year old daughter. Everything looks better in candlelight.
Eating by candlelight really helps to make the meal much more enjoyable.
Success. Every year for husband E's birthday, I recreate his favourite pudding which his mother often made. It is a short crust pastry, filled with sweetened apples and then a syrup is poured over the whole lot. Once baked, the pastry is crunchy in parts and caramelised in others. It is delicious.
