 It's What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday, time for a peek at each other's desks and projects! We are now sharing through Sarah, at Sarah's Craft Shed.

I think the dreaded purple rectangle is gone for good (๐Ÿ™). If you see it, please LMK!

I spent most of last week working on the purple rectangle, but did get a few things done. Here is my desk on Tuesday afternoon:


I did manage to use most of the pieces I made last week like this:







The above little book was made for me several years ago, and is very small!


On Saturday we went on our annual "Fall Leaf Tour", which always ends up at a German restaurant called Maximillians, in Perth, Ontario. Here are a few fall photos-the leaves weren't as bright as they could have been, it was a cloudy day, and many of the trees hadn't turned yet...



Always the best tree!

Yesterday was our Canadian Thanksgiving, but nobody comes aymore, so I just made a dinner for 2, and now the turkey soup is cooking away! I bought a turkey breast, and then some bits and pieces of turkey (back, neck etc) for very cheap, and used those for the stock!


Pssst! and it was low carb!

That's it for me! Mittsy is quite disgusted with the colder days, although we are still able to have our "Wine Time" on the porch! Inky doesn't seem to mind. Have a wonderful week!

PS: Again, please LMK if there is a purple rectangle!

Look at all those gorgeous autumn colours, so glad you had a great time on the tour! Your artwork is fab too, especially the black hand with the white henna designs.

Yay! no purple box. How odd that was. And we are closing in on US Thanksgiving too - I do love me a good turkey soup. Almost the best part of the meal for me. Well done you for making it low carb. I've been doing that for a few years now and the Family is finally getting used to it. Loving the fall colours and the cards are so very pretty too. I find hitting the right tone with sympathy cards can be tricky, but your nailed it. Happy quick after knitting WOYWW!
