We started the day with a visit from some wild turkeys, a rafter of four hens came for breakfast. We first spotted them outside our bedroom window. They stayed for quite a while gradually moving down the hill. Soon after that our friend Mary arrived with this week’s farm boxes that our two families split. Then the three of us headed off to Asheville on a day of adventures which included a trip to a fine fabrics store, lunch in Biltmore Village, the Asheville Quilt Guild show, a shopping trip to Earth Fare for some great groceries, and dessert at a TCBY frozen yogurt bar. Some fine adventures on a crispy cool autumn day topped off by dinner of Chicken Pot Pie from Earth Fare and tomatoes from our garden.
Cobh on Our Own
For our first adventure together on the Emerald Isle, we walked the streets of Cobh, County Cork, explored St Colman’s Cathedral, and visited the Cobh Heritage Center.
Mmmm – tomatoes from the garden.
Yeah! An incredible taste sensation!
