You could add a sign saying that they are difficult to produce and only available this time of year and these are the last two jars! There's nothing like scarcity to pull in the buyers!<br /><br />I do the same thing. I turn things up on high (just to get it heated up and going, you understand) then forget about it and come back to blackened remains. Last year I turned the breakfast nook into a little sitting room with a wing back chair, floor lamp and little side table. That way I can sit there and read or knit while my cooking goes on. It sort of works. This burning of stuff has gone on for a long time. On the wall next to my stove I have a cross stitch that I did in the 80's. It shows a frog wearing a frilly apron with a bow in her hair. She is holding a frying pan with smoke billowing out of it and the writing next to her says: Another Day, Another Disaster. Prophetic I suppose.<br /><br />Your leaves are beautiful. The ones around here are pretty much gone and we had a hard frost last week so it's time to cut back the perennials and alas start the raking. I raked and shredded leaves for about three and a half hours yesterday afternoon and thought I wasn't going to be able to get out of bed this morning. My back was definitely protesting!<br />vichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18428581552807859803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971541568171657986.post-52106462959550515022014-11-07T23:16:52.508-08:002014-11-07T23:16:52.508-08:00The sun over the trees is beautiful, great photos....The sun over the trees is beautiful, great photos.
