Just Molly and Me...

...Molly and I had a jolly in this afternoon’ s autumn sunshine. We went to our very local pine trees and collected pine cones, we found loads. She really really had fun running in and out of the fallen branches and pe-poing me. Not sure if she understood what we were doing there though, but it didn't matter. This was getting ready for our own family thanksgiving harvestfest dinner which we have just invented. We have come up with the idea for a thanksgiving harvestfest dinner because we can’t all get together every Christmas and this can be our very own moveable feast.

The pine cones are for the decorations,when dried out and open, along with squash from Hazel’s allotment and corn from Sainsburys, they have fancy colours black,orange and yellow.

We also will use them for Christmas, but then we will paint them with dabs of white emulsion to look like snow and hey presto! natural tree ornaments. Sometimes I like to add another dab of glue and glitter, but you really can’t improve on nature.
