Not much today. A low energy, downbeat kind of day.

This picture I took out the front window of the car, as the rain poured down. It's of the garden in the backyard. Soon it's going to freeze and it'll all be over for the dear garden that Michael has tended to with the patience of a mother-with-a-newborn. We have eaten so well from this garden too - just last night we had cauliflower from it and today M and I had a tomato-tuna sandwich with the last tomatoes from the garden.

We've picked our tomato plants clean as well, sadly. It was a little bit sad that I had to buy tomatoes at the grocery store!

On the plus side, we still have lots of peppers left!

I am LOVING the "post a photo a day" thing, Julia!

The photos are a real treat.

I just learned how to blend cauliflower with butter and cottage cheese to make a mock mashed spud. It really helps me stay away from carbs. It's so much lighter and fluffier than the real thing. Scrummy.

Winter will be over before you know it!

Count me in the Fan of Winter column. Of course, it's easier to love that season here in California. I'm just happy when it's not 110 degrees.

I envy anyone with a green thumb. I can't grow stuff.

Hope it's OK to wish you a "Happy 'real' Birthday" here - my own is this weekend and I remembered that part of the opening of "Letting Go of God"...
