Here's a bit of what's going on at our house this week via cell phone pics. I am linking up to Insta- Friday at Life Rearranged. This post is overrun with food but that seems to be the theme around here with the local harvest happening. We get a CSA box, visited the farmers market, and bought apples and pumpkins at the orchard this week!
We hit up the pumpkin patch and apple orchard. Did a litlte running thru the corn maze with the kids. It was a beautiful day!
We are really enjoying the harvest in our area. Our CSA boxes have been overflowing with yummy end of summer produce. Some of our favorites from this week were the brocolli, butternut squash, and the carrots. Our dinner veggie plate with a little local goat cheese.
I also made up this veggie soup from our csa box and a few canned tomatoes that I had in the cupboard. It was a really yummy recipe!
Sunday after church and has turned into my scrub down the house day! I love that my little girl wants to help now. I gave her a feather duster and let her go to town!
We had craft night with a few good friends this week. We try to do this once a month later at night after all our kiddos are sleeping. I brought letters I had hanging on the wall by our toyroom and covered them in joel dewberry heirloom fabric with glue. A little tedious but worth it!
My friend was making painted canvases with quotes on them and she whipped this one out for me to hang in the Fabric Shoppe space. Acrylic paint, felt cut outs and twine and mod podge! {I AM IN LOVE WITH IT!!}
I think the insta-friday challenge from last week was post something blue. Here are a few blue things that have been hanging around my kitchen alot lately. Blue imunity smoothies for breakfast for the girls and I. Can you see my 1 year old sipping on hers thru my glass:)
{Nonfat greek yogurt, kefir, bluberry/pom juice, banana, ice, blueberries, ground flax seed}
We are also been trying our hand at canning! We made apple sauce, apple butter, and tomato sauce so far. So this the Ball blue book of canning has been out on the counter A LOT!
Welcome to all the new readers joining from insta friday and a big thanks to life re-arranged for hosting this! What have you been up to this week?
These look so fun! I need to look into a csa share too.
I loved too your earlier post somewhere about the jars of sugar scrub, and the decorations. Wonderful ideas!
