Can you believe Sunday is September 1st? Where did the summer go?
I can tell summer is saying goodbye... a long goodbye... but goodbye none the less...
My gardens are taking on that exhausted look. All but the tomatoes and peppers are done... and my hydrangeas are drying in the most beautiful fall colors!
The very tippy top of my red maples are just starting to turn the tiniest bit... and the corn in the field is starting to rustle when the wind blows through it!
The mornings are getting a little foggy and it's wonderful to be outside in the evenings... I'm very happy about that!
The days are getting shorter... and that makes me a little sad!
This week I'll be making lots of pesto and canning tomato and spaghetti sauce...
and celebrating the remains of summer and our garden!
Now here's what's ON THE MENU...

ReplyDeletePinky, I don't have a OTMM linky party any more... not for a couple of months now.
DeleteHi Yvonne,
ReplyDeleteI love the way you describe your gardens,mine have that exhausted look as well and that is sad. We are gearing up for fall planting, but it is a small endeavor compared to our spring plantings. Your menu looks great using all the end of season veggies. Have a great week and thanks for sharing.

Looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteLooks as if you will be enjoying those garden goodies all week. What a menu.. Have a great one! Blessings~
ReplyDeleteYvonne,
ReplyDeleteAre you making spaghetti sauce to can? If so, could you please share your recipe. I think I'm a "pretty good" cook, but I struggle with spaghetti and marinara sauces. I have to use store brought sauce, but I'd prefer homemade of course. I have tons of tomatoes each year from my garden and I'd so much more prefer to make my own.
You are looking for Autumn and we are looking for Spring. Some of our blossom trees are just starting to flower.
ReplyDeleteThe menu looks so yummy!!! Have a blessed week ahead!

As always, you menus sound fabulous Yvonne. Summer is my absolutely favorite time of the year and I'm sad it's coming to an end. I'll miss tomatoes the most.

Yvonne, why is it I'm suddenly starving?!
ReplyDeleteIf you ever get tired of blogging, you could become a food writer (or chef)!
Now I'm off to raid the fridge...
