Autumn Stew

It seems only yesterday the children were mixing up that first batch of early Spring Soup in all its greeny goodness. Today, with a bracing nip of Autumn in the air, Theresa and Margaret collaborated on this lavender-hued indulgence--Autumn Stew. Served al fresco in a shiny coffee can reminiscent of Martha Stewart's ubiquitous umbrella buckets, I'd say, "It's a good thing."

By the way, in case any of you are interested, that plastic bowl of Spring soup is still tucked away under a rhododendron hedge where it has been simmering since April. Would that I were kidding about this, but I am not. Whatever you do, don't tell Martha, but I know for sure it will make Lissa love me all the more.

How lovely! I have all boys, so we made a "lovely" glass pitcher of earthworms and grass clippings!
