I have no idea why we drew an artichoke for October in my on-line drawing club but an artichoke is what we drew.
Yesterday I started a nine night dog sitting session with Holly Dog. It's a sort of holiday but I continue to live my normal life so I can still do many of the things I would do if I were at home.
October is the month for harvest festivals and harvest suppers so I'm going to a few of those including preaching at one.
I've got a few meet-ups with friends organised and one friend has invited me for a meal which she will cook so I'm looking forward to that.
I'm hoping to get more of my Christmas preparations done, some of them while I am staying with Holly as Holly's mum has a dedicated craft room filled with crafter's toys. Yay!
That looks a rather "thin" month but I have no doubt that other things will happen.
I don't think I have ever eaten an artichoke! I'm sure yours would be tasty if cooked
ReplyDeleteArtichoke is rather nice! Dipped in butter or vinaigrette.
DeleteI agree! Occasionally I buy a jar of artichokes to perk up salads and bought pizzas.
DeleteI hope October turns out to be a lovely month for you. My October will include stuff like a home inspection for insurance renewal, dental appointments, and other such exciting (NOT!) things!
ReplyDeleteI find rhat in same way as nature abhorrs a vacuum, an engagement diary abhorrs empty pages.
ReplyDeleteI have only ever eaten artichoke from a jar as part of a sharing plate. I’m sure freshly cooked ones dipped in butter are much more tasty. Catriona
ReplyDeleteI had artichokes yesterday on salad, from a jar and pickled.
