Wow. It's four weeks now till the big day, and we have reached our third link up week for #festivefriday.

To my readers in America, I hope you had a fabulous thanksgiving. Feel free to share what you got up to.
British Thanksgiving
We had our own British version of Thanksgiving this week. So as usual I've been busy cooking- there's been cranberry sauce, pecan and pumpkin pies added to the blog.

Somewhere in the midst of all the cooking, we found time to bake our pinecones in spices ready to start making our Christmas decorations this weekend.
Christmas fingerpainting

We both really value locally sourced produce,  and enjoy spending time outdoors.  In our first home together (a basement flat in the city centre) we planted anything and everything we could in planters on the windowsill.   I had green beans trailing up the bars of our windows. They bolted and twirled up the bars but never got enough light  to produce anything edible. Then we moved into our first pub which had masses of outdoor space, unfortunately,  all car park and no dirt. We managed to sustain some hanging baskets with strawberries and a few herb planters, but that was about it.  Now we are in our new home.  A lovely country pub in the new forest, whiich offers a private garden just for our little family.  We moved here when I was 8 months pregnants and ever since, I've been desperate to make the most of it.  Since the new year we've been planning what to do with this neglected space.  I found this
