Now we are deep into October. Â We visited farmer’s market on Saturday then got a bushel of apples from Barber Orchard on Sunday. Â It’s been a week of great eating. Â We have almost a dozen pints of applesauce put up and apples for pie in the freezer. Â We’ve eaten rainbow trout, fresh tomatoes, applesauce, apple pie, ratatouille made with white eggplant, sweet potato pie, asian pears, and other good things while doing projects around the house and yard, finishing the knitting of a fuzzy blanket as well as warping and weaving a table runner and six placements. Â Now it’s time to head off to farmer’s market before the rain starts.
Dakar, Senegal: A Wolof Village & The Pink Lake
Queen Mary 2’s arrival in the Port of Dakar, Senegal was heralded in the local press and greeted with ceremony. Our own excursion took us on a coach journey through the streets of the capital city to visit a Wolof village and the shore of Lake Retba, the salty lake famed for an intense pink color.
