I call this: “Feet: A Study.”
Dog feet. Table Feet. And, if I had just moved just a fraction of an inch, my foot.
Drat that husband of mine. He gave me his cold. I woke up feeling poorly. Nevertheless, I girded my loins and went to help Heidi in her shop for a few hours. Now I’m home but not feeling quite well enough to tackle the wallpaper for the dollhouse living room. I did wax the newly laid hardwood floor yesterday and it looks pretty spiffy. I also added spindles and a railing to the other staircase.
It’s 80 degrees here today.
A spectacularly beautiful fall day.
Look who visited us the other day. Babies. Two of them. They were very, very close to the house.
They were munching on grass and pokeweed berries.
This little one was watching me as I took these photos from the other side of the kitchen window. And apparently enjoying those pokeweed berries. Can you see those beautiful eyelashes? This is one of the many reasons that I am a vegetarian.
Here’s another:

Oh my ~ you couldn’t have gotten a better shot of the deer if you’d staged it. Beautiful!
I’ve had a cold trying to catch me too (: Take care xo
Deb says
Bravo! I love vegetarians. Great photos.
The Quintessential Magpie says
I concur. I am virtually a vegetarian, too(I do eat fish and chicken), and I adore those deer! Look at those sweeter than sweet faces… awwwwwww!
And that dog foot is pretty cute, too.
Feel better…

My Kid's Mom says
I so miss being able to look out my window and see deer!
The Quintessential Magpie says
Claudia, I had no idea of what four solid days of sleep deprevation could do to a person. Now, I know first hand. And as you might well imagine, I post, and it stopped. I thought I could sleep, but no rest for the weary. The phone started ringing. ENOUGH!
XO,
Sheila
Dorthe says
Claudia, they are so sweet and beautiful- and you are a wonderful photographer-
hope your cold will vanish soon, dear.

The Boston Lady says
If we could only all have those eyelashes! How sensational that they were in your yard. I know many consider them pests, but I would be planting things to attract them! Hope you feel better. Go figure. You had 80 degree weather and we had 3 days of solid rain – good weekend to catch up with Jack Reacher…. Ann
Cozy Little House says
What utterly fantastic photos you’ve captured, Claudia! I’m jealous! But not of your cold. I got a flu shot last week. Don’t think I’ve ever had a cold.
