Not knitting is definitely a challenge for me these days. Not only do I miss it for the way it made me feel productive, I miss it for the way it helped me cope with stress and anxiety. I also miss it when Wednesday rolls around and I don’t have knitting to talk about.
So, I came up with a new idea and I’m calling it Joyful Wednesday. It will be a way to, once a week at least, share something that’s bringing me joy. And what’s a better antidote to pain and anxiety than joy?
This week, it’s the cranberry harvest that’s bringing me joy. Every October I see it, and it never gets old.
It’s a thing of joy for sure.
Gorgeous, Carole! And I think all of our lives could use more joy! Thank you!
I love that you get to see real cranberries being harvested and share it with us!
More joy is always welcome! I’m sorry to hear you’re still not back to knitting, though. Would you believe that until just a few years ago, I thought cranberries grew floating in water because that’s how I always saw them in advertising?
I’d love to see this some year. Until then, your photos of this always feel like a gentle reminder of the goodness to come at Thanksgiving.
“Like!” I like your post, and I like cranberries, too.
What a great reminder that fall is here, Carole. I don’t think I truly understand how cranberries are grown, and I will look that up. However it is done, this is a beautiful picture.
That’s beautiful! Any idea how long you won’t be able to knit? Hope it isn’t too long.
Do you mind sharing where this cranberry bog is? I’ve always wanted to see one “in real life”.
The bogs are so beautiful!
Walk With Me Wednesdays are easy on the wrist. just sayin’. 😉
Yes! I am all in for paying attention to bits of joy. So many things right now but leaves changing colors and turmeric lattes are at the top of my list.
What a fantastic idea for Wednesdays! (for ANY day!) … and those cranberries … I’m really looking forward to seeing them show up in the stores here and that photo makes me think it might be soon!!
I love it! Joyful Wednesday is perfect!! Your photo is so beautiful, I love when you post pictures of the bogs. ??
