Apples, Pie, and More

Family

Now we are deep into October.  We visited farmer’s market on Saturday then got a bushel of apples from Barber Orchard on Sunday.  It’s been a week of great eating.  We have almost a dozen pints of applesauce put up and apples for pie in the freezer.  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.  Now it’s time to head off to farmer’s market before the rain starts.

London’s National Portrait Gallery’s temporary exhibition, “Six Lives: The Stories of Henry VIII’s Queens” presents an amazing collection of portraits, jewelry, personal effects, books, costumes, and more to illustrate not only the lives of the six women who married the second Tudor king, but the effort across five centuries to keep their memory alive.

The purpose of our trek to Strawberry Hill House in Twickenham in the southwest of London was to see a recently recovered bronze bust of the Emperor Caligula but we discovered so much more in the recently restored 18th Century “little Gothic castle” built by Horace Walpole.
