It's BARN CHICK PARTY #4! Time flies when you are having fun. Especially in barns like this one above. It does not hurt that this is also a local winery!

Ever so grateful that you came to the party and join in if you can. No barn pics are even necessary to link up. I mean, this post is about wine tasting, oh yeah- and barns...

Soaring original wood beams
in this excellent example of Victorian Barn Architecture
create an abundance of ambiance...

Oh thank you again Chicks for making these
parties so much fun!
There will be more parties in the Spring...
The winery provides a nice variety of lovely
wines to sample...
Krumpet and I hated to leave.
Yes. I said my dog, Krumpet.
The barn doors are always opened for guest dogs
to play with owner's pets...
Did I
hoot how thankful
I am that you Barn Chicks
be here?

Does the
BRAYTON HOMESTEAD
look like fall?
It is perfect for Thanksgiving...

When I just visiting my client on MARTHA'S VINEYARD, I picked up this magazine, "Edible Vineyard". Did you know that the island is covered in acorns? I did not. You may remember that I love acorns and
etched them in the image below...

These nuts were a staple in the diet of Native Americans. The Native Americans probably taught the first Pilgrims how to first boil acorns in water. This removed the tannins, a substance that usually was unpalatable and made the acorns bitter. The acorns could then be eaten as is or they were ground up to make a flour for breads and cakes. Think I may try a bread for
Thanksgiving.

Hoping you enjoyed yourself
it was wonderful to have you here! linked to Faded Charm's charming
