I was not prepared for this...
Is a gardener ever really prepared for it?
The first hard killing frost of fall!
The tomato vines are blackened and dead.
The peppers thankfully are covered so although a little sad they are not gone.
The kale seems to love it.
The sunflowers hate it, as do the pumpkin vines and my pretty little nasturtiums!
But somehow the weeds keep going strong...
What's with that???

On a completely separate note my oldest son has finally decided to marry his girlfriend of almost 6 years.
They are getting married on New Year's Eve (yes the one just a couple of months away!)
In my house.
Oh my...if you have any great, classy, inexpensive decorating ideas please let me know!

I haven't broken the news to Gizmo yet...the big guy adores my oldest son.
He's gonna be mighty jealous!
Don't worry buddy, you're not losing a friend, you're just gaining another family member who will feed you apples.
What?
No!
You cannot be the ring bearer.
