Wild asters, sometimes known as Michaelmas Daisy.
Sedum in my garden.
The sunny colours of Golden Rod. This isn't the one that makes you sneeze, that's Ragweed.
I look out of my front window and I see this glorious red maple.
And of course, fruit and veggies are abundant at this time of year. Bacon and tomato sandwiches for lunch, my favourite. A teeny weeny sprinkle of salt, some mayo, toasted homemade 12 grain bread.... need I say more?
P.S. Getting close to that magic number of 10,000 blog visitors! If you are Number 10,000, leave me a message, there will be a little prize in the mail for you.
Update on Thursday at 8:00pm: Nobody has admitted to being Blogger number 10,000, and I know there was somebody, as now we are at 10.008, so I'll keep the prize and try again on my One Year Blogiversary which will be in November.
I love bacon and tomato sandwiches, sedum and red maples (though not together). Golden rod . . . hmm, I think that involves some sneezing.
ReplyDeleteWonderful flowers and beautiful garden! Congratulations on your 10,000 blog visitors!
ReplyDeleteNot me 9984, maybe I might come back!!! lol!!!
ReplyDeleteBLT's...one of my favorites yummm.
ReplyDeleteThe red maple is so pretty. Trees around here haven't begun turning yet, I guess it's still a bit too warm.
A nice series of pictures.
Hi Rook,
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately I didn't make it to the north Devon coast, though I certainly would like to go back and explore that part of the country again, especially the moors. But unfortunately the weather was pretty horrendous and my shoes really weren't up to it any more (see the picture in my last post).
But now that I'm back home I'm looking forward to curling up under my duvet on the weekends, seeing my friends and going down to the pub for bangers and mash on a Sunday afternoon. Mmmmmm.
Stunning flowers and colours. And the bacon butty sound great too.
ReplyDeleteYour pix are a beautiful tribute to autumn!

ReplyDeletemmm...i had a turkey, bacon, tomato, avocado sandwich for lunch, hold the mayo tho. i have to pick my battles and the bacon won over the mayo. that maple is gorgeous!! one of these days I'll experience a fall outside of California, it's on that life list.

ReplyDeleteHow beautiful! I really miss the Canadian autumn colours :(
ReplyDeleteYou are way ahead of us on everything autumn, Ex-S...except the fair, which just started this weekend. We'll be taking Nicholas on Friday. Our fair is more about rides and eats, I'm afraid, though we do usually get an elephant and some tigers. :)
