Well it is the end of summer.  We closed the pool today and I can see the hint of changing leaves!!  Fall is so beautiful but I have a hard time enjoying it knowing that winter is fast approaching and the fun of driving in it isn't far away.  Maybe because I am in the snowbelt of NE Ohio.

I was looking at A Primitive Place's forum and stumbled upon posts about Fresh Bittersweet.  I think I need to take a walk along the side of our fields to see if I can find any.  There is also a great article on a blog called "Behind My Red Door" she even has some great photos to help identify and locate bittersweet in its natural state and decorating with it.

Have a great week!
