Roz said she sent one to Israel and Italy too and they had received theirs a while ago. Snail mail for sure.
Anyway this is so cute. I expect that when I travel to Florida this fall that this will carry my needles.
I love this.. it's like a little purse andit is so delicate to see. Thank you Roz
I noted on her blog that she had a cook book in print too, so have a boo there.
It is an absolutely beautiful fall day here at the cottage. So much so that we took our last cup of coffee to have on the dock. Those days will come to an end soon enough so we take each as it comes.
While I came up from Whitby on Friday,it was raining for most of the way, but still
the colours of autumn are breathtaking.
I took this photo while driving up highway 35 to Dorset. It doesn't do the colours justice, but still the trees are in full autumn bloom.
The loons are busy here too when the lake is calm out our way. There is lots of little bass at the end of our dock so the loons get a full feed.
Yesterday a humming bird was at our flowers who are looking pretty sick these days, but Helen, who is only a few cottages away saw a fat hummer getting his last feed from her feeder before heading to warmer climates.
All around us there are closers. The lake is beginning to have fewer and fewer of us hardy folks around. Next week there will only be a couple of us here, but for the Thanksgiving weekend, many return to close for the season.
Just an update on the bear issue....the bear is gone...hopefully for good, but we are ever vigilant at night. Just so that he doesn't tear the door off the garbage bin we have left it open....no garbage in it, but he doesn't know that.

That is a cute giftie you got in the mail.....I love the updates on the bear.
Nanci I so love to hear about your life at the cottage and all your place names are all English. Whitby is up on the North Yorkshire Coast and famous for its Whitby Jet. Queen Victoria had mourning jewellery made from it and so popularised it. Dorset is a County on the South Coast and is beautiful, home of Thomas Hardy. It is also where they are holding the sailing events for next years Olympics. Lovely gift you received.
What a lovely gift Nanci.
I cant believe your leaves are starting to turn already. Does it feel like Summer was gone in the blink of an eye?
your fall colors are terrific. When do you leave the cottage and now that the house is sold where will you be going?

What a sweet gift! Love those fall colours, they are so beautiful.
Your autumn colors look to be at the same stage as ours...so enjoyed seeing glimpses of your cottage by the lake - it looks idyllic! I was visiting some of your other posts and looking at all the quilts, but had to stop because the food images were making me very hungry!! :o)
Thanks so much for visiting me earlier and leaving such a kind comment...do come back often and I will also return soon - right after I find something to eat!!
Sweet sadness when the summer begins to end, especially at the lake. Soon the loons will be leaving as well as the hummers and the bear's getting sleepy. Thanks for sharing your beautiful spot with all of us.
Lucky you being up in the north country at this time of the year. The colours are always so wonderful up that way.
