Autumn Leaves

'Dancing Peacock' Someone needs to write a song... :) With an atmospheric river and 30 mph winds predicted this past weekend, I was afraid the ginkgo, which had just started to turn color, would be stripped.  We were lucky though and it remains intact. Gingko 'Princeton Sentry' After the storm... The Black Tupelo (Nyssa slyvatica) changes color from the inside out - The above photo was taken last week. Here it is today - 'Wolf Eyes' Dogwood (Cornus kousa) has never had such pink color - Catalpa bignonioides 'Aurea', Crape Myrtle 'Dynamite' ( Lagerstroemia ), and Persian Ironwood ( Parrotia persica ) - Japanese Maple 'Beni Hime' - Serviceberry 'Autumn Brilliance' ( Amelanchier ) with tree peonies - Stewartia pyschocamellia starts the color show early. It has since faded to a much softer color - Text and photos by Phillip Oliver, Dirt Therapy

A new blog

I've long pondered starting a blog on baking but was afraid I would not have the time to do it or worse, not have the expertise to do so. Actually, I probably don't have either but I'm taking the plunge nevertheless. I decided to focus on Maida Heatter, a cookbook author that I love and the one author who I think does the best job at teaching. Hopefully I will learn something and share some great dessert recipes as well. So, if you are interesting in baking, check out Mad About Maida.


Don't worry - Dirt Therapy isn't going anywhere!
