Thanks for sharing with the Garden Party. For fall and winter, you can link up seasonal recipes, garden themed gifts, decorating and such. I'm going to have a list of Winter link-up themes tomorrow at the Tuesday Garden Party, so check in and plan your posts!

I'm in Beaverton, OR, and have a tree in my side yard that looks like it's on fire with all the bright red & orange leaves! About a quarter of the leaves have fallen so far…
