Amor Milagre Autumn Adventures October Baby Pumpkin Patch, Beach, Farm, & Festival. Nature Photography
Nature guides us, connects us, and frees us. Our most meaningful adventures are our own. We prefer our wanderings as the annual festivals are too loud, pollutive, uninteresting, and exhausting. This autumn, we ramble out with the long waves and tumbling orchards, low tide beaches, hollow cold pumpkin patches, and our own cosy Rose Cottage bakes. Our Sunday mornings are for jack-o-lantern carvings and fall-themed word puzzles. We still have much to do, but it’s far less than before, so we’re enjoying our slow moments under quilted clouds and October breezes. Fun is easily found by accident!
*Shop: NEW Nature Photography (Fine Art Prints and Stationery) are coming up, featuring our past Summer-Autumn film archives. (Not shown here yet.) New pastels are dusting in, too.
A magical autumn to you! Love, ~ Amor Milagre

Amor Milagre Rainy September Days in our Rose Cottage Kitchen, Autumnal Vegan Organic Baking and Cooking
It’s raining… and so we bake up some Halloweeny birthday treats. This week, I’m shipping out my seasonal books, wax seals, art prints, and stationery to lovely customers, hand-pressing a new autumn wax seal sticker collection, writing out fresh vegan organic recipes for my upcoming cookbook, and illustrating my latest novel pages.
The leaves have goldened. They fall lightly down our windows as we learn about cell walls and French verbs. How do you classify living organisms these days? Peaceful or non-peaceful? The light jackets are out and waiting to go explore leaf-crunching gardens, library stacks, and haunted mansions. We stroll graveyards, reading inscriptions of eternal love.
Evenings are full of new stories and paintings, soon to be shared with you, Dear Ones.
Love, ~Amor Milagre

When I designed these rooms, writing/reading nooks were at the top of the piority list. When you work from home, it’s important to move about in the house. Our Rose Cottage kitchen is our very own cafe where we watch rain drip down our pumpkins, write to the season, and enjoy every changing moment.

Last week, our foods were either made of pumpkin or shaped like pumpkins.

Hot, buttery biscuits are a fun way to greet loved ones at the end of a long day. Just plate them, don’t throw them!

Mini pumpkin pies (just pumpkin and spices) are a baby favourite here. We also made very trick-or-treat night rice krispy treats with PB and chocolate and then watched spooky movies.

Amor Milagre Handmade Autumn Pumpkin Wax Seal Stamp Sticker Collection- Coming this Week!
All year round it rains, and I love using this Rainy Day Notecard & Wax Seal Set to send to Dear Ones. I design what I love, and I hope you love it, too!
Our trees are just beginning to golden up. The air is mellowing. We adore and name pumpkins. I listen to cosy songs as I write autumnal novels. Here are a few of my annual favourites. Love, ~Amor Milagre
Bela Babai: Haunting Gypsy Melodies (We have the original record, and it sounds extra romantic-spooky with the snap, crackle, pops.)
The toys in our Rose Cottage are sewing up gifts and wrapping them with bows in preparation for the holiday season. We are, too! It’s time for puzzles, games, wellie woodsy walks, writing leafy novels, pumpkin patches, spices, and auburn lake en plein air paintings. New fall wax seal stamp stickers are coming up, along with oil paint waterscapes and some adorable trick-or-treat stationery.
Today, we stocked up our custom hand-made pantry to finish our Rose Cottage Kitchen Renovation. All pieces were thoughtfully designed by me and expertly crafted by my very talented husband. We matched the countertop stain, a mix of a few eco-stains, to a pair of kitchen chairs we have. The eco-paint is a heavy cream to match the rest of the kitchen which is separated by sound-sensitive door placement designs. This keeps the refrigerator in the back and out of earshot to reduce sound/vibration pollution for the nervous system. The counter allows for less trips back and forth from the fridge. This is also where we store our dry foods, fresh fruit, glass storage containers, and cookware. It’s like a charming seasonal market to shop at meal times. We can decorate this space for each season. This back room, which used to be the full kitchen before we began from scratch opening up the dining room, is dark and safe to store things like potatoes with easy drop off unloading access after weekly grocery runs. I am very pleased with how peaceful and strong the design is and how much storage we now have without an imposing kitchen full of floor to ceiling cabinets. The wooden berry-cream colours are soothing and naturally rich which excites me to bake up cosy autumnal pies, soups, and breads. Now, to pastel up a velvety fruit still life to frame over this space to the right. More beautiful cabinetry reveals are coming up! Love, ~Amor Milagre
