Corn Stalks

After picking the remainder of corn, we just couldn't part with their beautiful stalks just yet. Andy bunched them and stood them out front. They make it feel like autumn and are nice piece to welcome friends, family, and neighbors. I love coming home and seeing these tall stalks still serving a purpose albeit a decorative one. 

Chow Box

This beautiful box was the final welcome box that we gave to the new next door neighbors. 

It included: a curly cucumber (it grew in a circle!), lots of tomatoes, a couple potatoes, a handful of garlic, three large  green onions, two Walla Walla sweet onions, a half dozen fresh eggs, and a handmade tomato pincushion.  It was presented to them in a cute handmade veggie box from Andy with a card made by the girls. I think they enjoyed the surprise, but I think I needed to extend a hand since I've poo-poo'd the house. Like our other neighbor, Matt, I was upset with the house not the people. I needed to give the box to live my amends. 

Welcome to the neighborhood Karoline and Chris!
