A rainy Thanksgiving Sunday. I’m happy to look out and see the bright pink garage door. The kiwi leaves are turning golden on the trellis. In its 4th year we are still waiting for blossoms. Maybe next spring. The rain is turning into snow as I tap. Hello winter? Happy we finished harvesting the carrots and leeks from the raised bed yesterday. The greenhouse got its last water from the rain catchment behind the garage. My avocado, rosemary and jasmine are repotted and brought in. The wooden compost unit moved closer to house for easy access in winter. It was hard work. But now I am sitting easy and cosy.
In the greenhouse, the bottle gourd is still going strong. It feels the end is near. It’s popping out little babies like crazy. Too bad pollination is not always a guarantee. They are delicious in soups when they are young. I have one that is getting heavy and needed a little support from an old pair of panty hose. It helps that I never throw out anything.

A bit of Snow? Ugh. At least you have a good attitude this ugly rainy Sunday. It must help when you still see vegetation in the greenhouse.
Sometimes I find rainy weather very restful and restorative.
what a good feeling, to have the garden tucked in and things brought in!
Love your pink door – so cheery!
Thank you, Nadya.
You’re doing such a wonderful job with your greenhouse. You grow avocados? How are they coming along?
Now get some well deserved rest.
My avocado is in a pot. Just decorative. Would be a nice surprise if it produces fruit.
I love the pink door. We are just getting our Indian Summer weather. No snow here!
Lucky you have no snow. It’s early for us this year. It’s melting as it comes down.
I love all your bottle gourds and great idea for panty hose to the rescue!
Thanks, Martha. Never throw out those panty hose!
