Pumpkins.Laundry.A Spot of tea.cookies.and then some





























After a week of coughs, flu bugs, and hanging out in the pig-sty, we headed up to Sonoma for a day and enjoyed the sparkly San Francisco Bay from the San Rafael Bridge, saw many pumpkin patches along the way to the Napa Valley, and and enjoyed the gorgeous Fall colors on the crimson and yellow-ochre grape vines. Now it's back to the laundry heaps, and making pumpkin-white chocolate chip cookies. Yum~ Oh, and it appears that I'm not the only one who has heaps of laundry!

Pig sty? You REALLY don't want to see what my house looks like. I've got 8 days to clean before my mother comes to visit -- I think it might be close!
