good day, sunshine

I had thought to make August the month of stuff from the farm stand, because it is the perfect month for fruit and veg here in New England. Except I found this glorious object at one of my favorite farms:

I am smitten.

It may be an entire month of sunflower(s).

Brace yourselves.

Oh – I met a fellow blogger (Simmy from England), we had a fine fiber crawl through Northampton, stopping at Valley Fabrics and Webs. She’s traveling with her family – charming husband and three kids. They are staying with her friends from the blogosphere all around the Eastern states. It is a very cool trip. Her husband calls it the Blog Tour.

In the Small World Dept; it turns out her husband did a degree with the woman who was later my boss at New England Science Center.

I am very much liking this meeting friends from the ether in the real world.

So if any of my faithful readers would like a place to crash in Massachusetts, give me a holler.

Hi Lee,
It was so nice to meet you the other day albeit briefly. Oh how I wish we’d had more time together as I would have loved to have seen your work.
Thanks SO much for lending us the satnav I don’t know how we would have got around without it and ofcourse Tom is now saying ‘wonder if I should get one in England’! That was a really kind gesture on your part and we’re very grateful.
Having a great time in Vermont and I’ve decided that I love western MA – infact Amber does too and wants to go to college in Northampton.
