I love this! We like to decorate but just a few things as well. It's probably good we don't have a ton of storage space in our home, so I don't allow myself to stock up and save. HA! Your table is beautiful. Thank you for sharing today and the quotes just what I needed.
Lovely table display, LoveLetterist! When we undertook a major downsize 7 ya, all sorts of possessions found new homes. And we still moved with a little more than we could carry on our backs. Thoreau. “Walden, or, Why I Went To The Woods” 😊
My sentimental jukebox ways that belabor my brain may lead to a short circuit! Yet I’m still not ready for Matrix inspired neural implants to render me more compliant.
Keanu Reeves seemed well fitted to his role. One summary of the trilogy of Matrix movies suggests we all have a choice to live in the real world or in an artificial one. Our imagination? One defined for us as “the right way”? I didn’t watch the third movie. I have a limited appetite for sci-fi escapism.
Have you used the iPhone feature called Stickers, which you can make using your own images. Perhaps they capture the aroma of freshly baked apple tarts? 🙃
My current phone is the oldest that could install the 17.0.3 operating system. Some sources advised against doing so simply for the fact that so much has changed since my antique was made. 😵💫
Apple said two things I found persuasive: A) You must do so because it addresses “zero day risks” that can bite you; B) The age indicates that both O/S updates and security updates will cease shortly, but if you install now both will continue for a while. 😱
Stickers are hardly a selling point. It improved functionality of my camera! Auto correct is much better. I get to hear the same “wake up ring” as Beth. The Health App works differently - important because I track my walks - and I’m currently in training...
The poster on the wall announcing the Fall Caramel Apples Pie Harvest quickly took my thoughts to “Big Rock Candy Mountains.”
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
The cops have wooden legs
The bulldogs all have rubber teeth
And the hens lay soft-boiled eggs
Let me add that BRCM has other features that may not harmonize with the spirit of 3MM. 🤭
Thalia taking a peek at the peak is quintessential Thalia! Nia in her usual “time and motion analyst” role tickles me. Cal’s ever increasing skills of diplomacy display her desire to support human, constructive conversation skills. Loving your Muses more each day. 😁
A note from LoveLetterist:
My travels these days are populated with cornstalks, chrysanthemums, pumpkins, and skeletons. Waukesha county is awash in festive fall creativity.
I display only the few items pictured in today's photo -- favorites that made my downsizing cuts.
Are you a holiday decorator?
Not so much?
Here's what's super awesome...
You get to choose!

Thanks for reading and commenting Julie! For some, decorating is their red thread and brings the lots of joy.
There is a restaurant in Waukesha that is decorated so cute inside and out! I appreciate it so much!
Know thyself?!
So true! We all have our thing and isn't that wonderful.
Yes!

An apt metaphor for all of the mind space that we clutter with the unnecessary?

I haven’t seen the Matrix. I suspect that’s for the best. 🤪

Sci-Fi has never been my first choice.
A lot of people love it though. 🤷♀️

I have not used the feature! Never took the time to figure that out.

Please let us know when the pies are ready!
My next apple baking attempt might be a tart that’s been tempting me from Alexandra Cooks.
If I tackle it, I’ll send a photo. I don’t think it would travel well by mail. 🤷♀️
