Pumpkin Seeds

​"Only the knife knows what goes on in the heart of a pumpkin."
  ~~Simone Schwarz-Bart
The season is Christmas.

But with snow on the ground and the temperatures in the single digits, I'm dreaming of spring.
It's time to cut into my autumn beauties and harvest the seeds.

Tom has promised to set aside a pumpkin patch, and I plan to share its bounty. I'm keeping my fingers crossed and sending positive energy that these will grow and prosper on our own little farm.

The house is decorated for the season and all I have left to do is watch as Mother Nature decorates the countryside.

December Tree

​“A cold wind was blowing from the north, and it made the trees rustle like living things.” 
  ~~George R.R. Martin, A Game of Thrones
It was "single-digit" cold, and I just wanted to go home.
But when I saw the sky, I decided to take the country roads back to Shelby County.
I needed my "December Shot" of my 2016 tree, and I knew there would not be a better day or a more perfect December sky.

First Snow

"There is a privacy about it which no other season gives you.... In spring, summer and fall people sort of have an open season on each other; only in the winter, in the country, can you have longer, quiet stretches when you can savor belonging to yourself."
  ~~Ruth Stou
I had no idea that snow was on its way, and opening my eyes to find this white guest had appeared during the night brought joy. Today I had planned to decorate the tree we brought home yesterday,  and that had to wait while I took the time to see our barn against the snowy landscape. It's been five years since I've decorated for Christmas, and this was a perfect way to finish preparing for the seaason. Thank you, Mother Nature...
