Summer Colors Blanket

This is the latest item I am working on. I love the bright colors. It is a rather light weight blanket that I am crocheting. It is done in a crocheted ripple pattern.

I wanted to post a pic of this squash we grew from seed this year. It is a kind of patty pan variety. I love having squash for supper. I slice it up in a skillet with herbs and a little parm on the top.

This morning, after teaching my cycling class I drove out to the farmers market. I see two blueberry pies and some bread and butter pickles in my future. I also picked out a Holmes county parmesan cheese.

It would be a lovely place to visit in the spring.

J brought us to Fulton Farms to pick strawberries. Too bad we were one week to late for strawberries. We picked out some black rasberries for me to make a pie for his birthday. It turned out really good.
