Say Cheese!


(A site plan I drew up for the Maynards' newly acquired apple orchard.)


(Day 1 of the school kids coming. There were 60 little boys running around kicking pumpkins!! It was a tornado of fun.)


(Assembling the cider press...shipped all the way from Kansas!)


(Making signs, signs, and more signs!!)


(Part of the back vegetable plot!)


(Dessert: chocolate cake with yogurt, pumpkin honey, and crisp watermelon slices. SO GOOD!)


(Pumpkin, curry dahl lentils over coconut, raisin rice. Jordan's mom is a great cook.)


(Bonfire out back!)


(Monique and I picking pumpkins on the patch.)


(Bowen Island- a thick, Seville hot chocolate at an organic chocolate cafe. Perfect for a rainy day.)


(Nearing the lake at Bowen.)


(At the salmon ladder. Two weeks ago fishes were jumping straight up from the water!)




(Welcome to Bowen Island, a quaint, beautiful island north of Vancouver Island).

  1. Mamie,
    I finally had the time to catch up with all your blogs and they're fantastic! Thanks for sharing it with us. And you're right, photos and descriptions of food are fun. I just never think to do it! And you looked like a natural farm girl out there. :) Guess you're just one of those who fits in anywhere!

    Love,
    Janny
