A Little Orange and Black
By admin, on October 31st, 2009
From my home to yours, a little orange and black on this 31st of October, but never anything scary. 
Two black bunnies with shining eyes.
And a bright orange nasturtium in the garden. Our day has been unseasonably warm (around 80 degrees) with a few raindrops. It’s nearly bedtime but there’s always time for a bedtime story before we shut our heavy eyes. We always read our bible verses first and then the current bedtime read-aloud. Tonight we’re in Psalms and just staring On The Banks of Plum Creek by Laura Ingalls Wilder.
Happy Saturday Evening,
Lynn

About Lynn
I am the mother of four delightful children: a 23-year-old son, a 20-year-old son, a 17-year-old son, and a bright and bubbly 13-year-old daughter. I share an apartment home with my 17-year-old son and 13-year-old daughter. My little home on the internet is called Rose Cottage because of my love for gardening, roses, and all things romantic and Victorian. Welcome.
I'm a North Carolina girl and I love sharing North Carolina links and information. I do medical transcription from home. My hobbies include making sweet little dolls from clay who are named and have their own stories to tell. I also make old-fashioned brooches. These are for sale in my Etsy shop.
For 13 years continuously, I homeschooled some or all of our four children, but the time came that our homeschool had to be closed. It was the end of a beautiful chapter in my life. I will always be a strong supporter of homeschooling and I will continue to review books and maintain my homeschool website, The Healthy Homeschool. The Players

My Symphony
To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart; to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony.
William Henry Channing
1810-1884

Hey, Hope all is going well. Can you or do you gather seeds from your nasturtium? I use to have some years ago but I have not seen any in a long time. If you do would you mail me some?
Lynn,
I hope you’re doing well…
How about tossing a few of those narsturium’s in a salad… they’re edible… which I think you know already.
It was 48 here yesterday and damp and rainy. Not the best day for trick or treating.
Happy Sunday, Mich
Very clever post!
I am in Psalms, reading Proverbs to kids and getting ready to start LITTLE TOWN ON THE PRAIRIE. Have fun, love those books.
What sweet little bunnies Lynn!
Lovely photos and colors!
Hug.
Happy Black and Orange Day to you!
The photos of the bunnies are so adorable. Makes me want one! and
the narsturiun blosoms are incredible. You always have such wonderful photos to share.
Have you been able to visit my site or are there still problems? Let me know if you can. Thanks:)
Sending you a Smile…

Dear Cousin Vicki, I should be industrious and gather some of the seeds! I will do my best. I bought these seeds but would love to gather some. I will let you know!
Michele, that does not sound like very good weather for trick-or-treating. Knowing you, you made the absolute best of it! I love to add nasturtium leaves and flowers to salads. They are hot!
Tonya, sounds like we are reading along the same lines right now.
Valerie, my sister said they look like storybook bunnies. They are really sweet.
Rute, thank you. Hugs to you.
Diane, thank you. I love taking pictures. I was able to get on your blog. Yay. It must have been my computer or just a momentary lapse of availability. I know that happens with my sites sometimes.
