Here are a few more autumn displays that caught my eye during our New England tour.
This pumpkin and simply tied bundle of grass were at the Outing Club {a residential hall for kids who are interested in outdoor activities} at St. Lawrence University in Canton, NY. I think the chipped paint on the stairs made a perfect backdrop.
Don’t you love the crossed skis and framed art on the front of this gorgeous old house?
They were celebrating homecoming the day we visited the University of Vermont, the alums must have felt very welcome walking along this colorful path lined with pots of mums.
The each pot was for sale, with proceeds going to farm relief.
After many nights of motel living and college kid cuisine, I was so happy to settle into The Essex culinary resort and spa in Burlington, VT for a night. The food was amazing! We especially loved our Ceasar Salads, they grilled a quarter head of romaine lettuce over a fire before drizzling it with dressing for my son’s salad, it added such a nice smoky flavor. I ordered a Ceasar that was served with a bone, sliced in half so I could enjoy the marrow. Hmmmm…that is just morbid enough to serve for Halloween supper.
My son says his hamburger was the best he had ever had, I concur, the texture was light but substantial {does that make sense??}.
As you can see, they had some pumpkin loving on display. I thought this was a great idea, a variety of gourds, squash and pumpkins spilling out of an overturned pot, sort of a monstrous cornucopia.
A great caesar is one of the foods I miss most from the US and grilled sounds even better! YUM. Congratulations – I love your blog (which I hope you already know ;)) so I awarded you the Versatile Blogger award today. Stop by to get the details…:)
