Cheers to Apples


What a great day I have had today. The weather has been divine, and the Greater New Haven area is smothered in art and artists. I began the day making, poached eggs and toast. I used a little of the left over sauce from last nights eggplant curry with my eggs and it was delicious. I did ask the hubby if he wanted some and he said, "No, I prefer my breakfast to be bland." funny thing, he, is the Indian. hehehe. After breakfast we drove to an outdoors area called Racebrook. The hubby and I  went on a cuddly walk. The shade was quite cold, large Birch and Oak trees hid the sun along the path.  On ground of the path there were fallen leaves, wild roses,wild ginger plants yellow wild flowers, and what looked like tiny Daisy's everywhere. Before we left we walked quickly enough to feel warm in the cool October shade. Then I brought my hubby to his office so he could work. We had our yummy left overs from dinner for lunch, a coffee and some coffee cake and then I kissed him goodbye and headed to the Apple Festival.



Notice the horses have shoes

It was a short walk from our house to the Apple Festival so, while walking from our house I spoke to a good friend on the phone and the company was nice. When I got off the phone I went around the festival taking photos. Funny thing about the Apple Festival there were few apples. However, there was nice art work completed by children and I took a few photos of the kids art (with permission of course). A nice man a the booth gave me a connection to an art studio in town and even called the woman and sent me over to meet her. I know have a working gig on the 15th of October at the studio, serving wine and smoozing with poets.
I then went to open art studios with art, live music, shrimp, wine, cheese, and humus. I looked at art, made some new friends and found a place that runs an art co-op in my blue collar town, who knew.
