While we are waiting for the red wine to ripen, everybody tries to keep up on what the feel they need to do before harvest starts in earnest (all but the dream team who were afraid they'd have nothing to do and are looking at every tree on the winery with an eye that says 'if we cut this, it'll keep us occupied for at least three hours).
I try to get as much good things into my day as possible. Knitting, some sewing, some printing. And much gardening. The winter crops want to be sown... yesterday. Actually. On their package it says to sow them until the end of August. It makes me wonder if seeds know that it's not August any more but September (they shouldn't be so picky if you asked me).
There is no telling whether or not this blog deserves the attention, but I have been given two awards lately that I would like to pass on to (surely more deserving) other blogs I like. A lot.
The 'I love your blog' award comes from Colette and I would like to thank her for giving it to me.
The 'Arte y pico' comes from Suzanne whom I thank just as much.
You can see the guidelines for passing the two awards on at the end of this post. Right here I'd like to give the Arte y pico and 'I love your blog' to
and the remaining two awards of 'I love your blog' shall go to
What a long list of blogs that makes for. I like all of them (and many more) and wish they may keep blogging a long time yet.
