Today is a particularly beautiful morning. After a week of rain and more rain, to have Sept.11 be so sunny and pleasant is a welcome change especially considering the day. Ten years ago the boyfriend had moved to NYC two days before. Thankfully, he had the day off and was fast asleep. My cousin was working in a building near the Towers. Thankfully, she was evacuated early. This morning we watched an A&E special on 9/11. Very surreal. I do remember and will never forget, but maybe this is why the sunlight seemed so incredible today, and the plants I've been nurturing since Spring seem so lovely basking in the sun's rays. I feel even more drawn to simple things like growing plants, raising worms, working with my hands and cooking.

It's the end of the growing season, at least for me, and all my plants are either flowering or producing the last crop of the season.

There are gazillions of peppers growing on my plant right now. I'm going to wait until they all turn red before harvesting so I can collect the seeds, dry the peppers and grind them to make my own Korean chilli pepper flakes!!
Hope your day is good.
