I think doing more baking is a sure sign of Fall and cooler days. I had bananas that were very ripe and needed using so when we came home from our walk I mixed up a batch of Chocolate Chip Banana muffins adding cocoa to make them even better!!
While on our walk I noticed a tree which is blooming now. I'm not good at identifying trees and would like to know what this one is. DH broke off a twig and we brought it home but I didn't manage to find out anything from my book on B.C. trees and flowers. The tree is quite large. If I remember I'll take a picture of it tomorrow.
When Shannon was over on Thursday we took a stroll around the back garden and she noticed a grasshopper. She sent me the picture of it ( we don't see many grasshoppers here in town.)
Thanks for visiting
Lovely illustration. Cute grasshopper. Your muffins look delicious 😋
ReplyDeleteChocolate makes everything better. :-)
ReplyDeleteYour tree might be a white Crape Myrtle.
I do enjoy your baking photos. I have cut back on baking because it's just not good for my diabetic hubby, but I sure miss it!
ReplyDeleteI was going to say that tree might be a Crape Myrtle.’ Life is delightfully slow’….lovely!!! Enjoy your day, Virginia
ReplyDeleteOh my those muffins look delicious, I'd love to have one.
ReplyDeleteSorry can't help with in identification.
Life is delightfully slow - I love this sentence!!! I always feel inspired following your fine activities, decorating your house, baking delicious cakes and muffins and looking full of feeling after the flowers in your beautiful garden or on other places . The hay-hopper is precious!
