Farming....

On Saturday

 we started out going

 one place 

(the Apple Fest)

and 

ended up

 in a lot of other places...

We were just driving down a country road 

and came across this place

Garver Family Farm

    In 1926, this farm 

was purchased

 by Harry Garver. 

Four generations

 have proudly cared

 for this land. Many aspects

 of the farm 

have changed

 in shape and size. 

But one thing important 

has remained the same

: this is still a family farm.

I think actually

the lure of pumpkin ice cream 

is what drew us in

they sold all kinds of veggies

scarecrows

cornstalks

and of course

pumpkins

I love pumpkin ice cream

Biscuit Jar

Haven't gotten much on the thrifty finds

We have been busy with events

however I did get this biscuit jar

at Goodwill for $3

There was a pink one 

but it didn't have a lid

I wish I had bought it now

I plan for it to sit on a shelf

in my kitchen

Chocolate Roses

Building Block Jewelry

I have been helping 

with a local 

kids and rockets/robots group

We had so much fun helping kids 

at a rocket launch

they do a lot with Lego robots

Once a month May-Oct

our community 

has what is called  1st Fridays

The group has

had a booth to promote themselves

the wife of the leader

has made earrings as a fundraiser

so I thought hmmmm

I can make jewelry and donate it

so they can make some much

needed funds to help

pay for many of their activities

so out of a pile of Lego

pieces this is what I came up with

In order to make these

I got to play with a new toy

it is a battery operated Dremel!

Dremel Mini Mite

I got it at WalMart

for $20

Now it is not super speedy

but for me it is the best because

it is a little slower

(power tools intimidate me)

and was itching to play with it

as you can see

it is sooooo

easy to drill with 

you will be seeing 

more of this tool!
