Homecoming Saturday Pleasures
• Daisy's pockets filled with candy tossed at the homecoming parade.
• Strawberries at breakfast.
• Downtown on a beautiful blue morning. Girls at their first Girl Scouts meeting.
• Friends I haven't seen in many, many years.
• A long bright walk this afternoon and those purple grasses ripening acridly in pastures.
• Eleven children at the dinner table tonight (a mixed blessing perhaps?) as their parents attended other homecoming events.
• Loaves of date-walnut bread cooling on the counter.

Hi Anna!
I was just passing through and somehow the page refreshed and you just posted. I love the pumpkin picture. I would like to know what the red vine plant is.....It is soooo pretty. Name please??
Thanks! Looks like you had a wonderful day...hope your night is just as wonderful too!

I'm new to your blog and what a lovely one it is. I'm sure I'll be back.
I love your DD's shirt! The pink with the herringbone horse is sweeter than sweet.
My children have been out of school for years, and this was a wonderful reminder of the fall activities for the youngsters in the community! Wonderful~ beautiful blog...
Eleven children? This is exactly why my husband and I and our seven kids rarely get invited to dinner anywhere! We're a little too much of a blessing! What fun for homecoming!
Cheryl--That's lantana, a tender perennial. The orange tends to survive the winters, the other colors not. It is gorgeous!
Jackie, I know what you mean!
