Amor Milagre October’s Autumn Garden, Not a Partridge in a Pear Tree, but a Rafter of Wild Turkeys in an Apple Tree, Happy Halloween!
When younger, it was only a murder of crows that signaled the magical air of Halloween was nigh, but here it’s also a rafter of wild turkeys flustering up the apple tree. The crows watch on, amused, from a birch above. The territorial squirrels test the ‘intruders’. I paint them all into the scene.

It is now frosty. I finish my last oil painting in the seasonal studio before it snows. We’re also tidying up the house this week. All those post-reno items tucked into shelves and drawers are now sorted and labeled, ready to use. Knowing where they all are makes for a calm day. Pumpkins are being painted. Costumes sit at the ready. Our wild turkeys entertain us by flocking up to fight over the last apples. They roost until the last drop of noon falls away into the leafy breeze. Sometimes, just two come out to our organic garden. Today, almost thirty! They sense our soft, vegan auras….feeling safe in this green witch’s garden. We thank them quietly…for eating up any little biters and for tidying up before winter falls upon us.

These happy/vigilant souls soar down one at a time, giant wings all a flutter. They care for their family, just as we do. Leave them be. They’re busy in their wild routines. (No one enjoys wearing acidic orange.)

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

September Days, Amor Milagre, NH white mountain adventures
We are savouring this early autumnal weather by exploring new towns, collecting pumpkins, lifting a chin up to the leafy breeze, admiring mountain & lake views whilst sharing a picnic, airing out the house, listening to vintage Halloween songs, writing serene novels, reading nature-loving quest-style books aloud as a family, baking cosy treats for spooky movie nights, and wrapping winter holiday gifts. Fall is such a magical, comfortable, and comforting time for us. Ready to snuggle up, venture out, and return home again with pockets full of smiles.
September Days, Amor Milagre, pumpkin time- meet our first Henry of the season!Amor Milagre Winter Holiday Gift Wrapping Days
I find it relaxing to gather, and wrap, our gifts for the winter holiday season over the summer and fall. Then, we can focus on the festive activities like playing games. We reuse red shiny bags for bigger gifts each year, but this season we added in some silvery sparkle, too. We save the paper, tissue, ribbons, and bags. All new cards are added to a memory box so that we may look back on messages and artwork as more birthdays happily come to us!
Other gifts that are too big to wrap, such as snowy walks and tickets to sense a holiday show, are captured in photo albums and in our special holiday record book. I am precious about our memories. Every day is a time to celebrate and treasure our miracles.
Please let me know of any personal book inscriptions for your holiday gift orders using my Contact Page.
I am pleased to introduce the illustrated Vol. I of The Love Letter Diaries, Leona’s Homecoming. These darling books are my favourite. They are my heart. I hope they become a part of yours, too. So, if you like romance, peaceful living, gardening, art, seasonal holidays, delicious foods, love, mer-mysteries, and sweet families, then allow these life-long friends to invite you into their beautiful world. Hold them dear, and they will whisper amusing ideas for you to try as you write your own days.
Unfold mysteries of past, present, and future lives and loves through the empathic souls of Leona’s town of friends as they invent and enjoy simple pleasures and Nature’s joy during the first year of seasonal festivals. The illustrations reflect the memory-based scrapbook evolution of the story. This is an ongoing tale of real love, healing, connection, and the endless benefits of growing an ever-expanding web of kind hearts. Adoration lives in each character of this Italian seaside town, guided in love by one lovely woman. Her granddaughter, and her friends, continue sharing this positive energy together.
This ethically made book series allows the reader to explore the four seasons of Leona’s beautifully sensitive world. The books are a delight and a chance for planting and growing seeds of positive change for all. The festivals are full of delicious foods and exciting events where every person’s gifts are celebrated. (Printed on cream FSC Certified Paper in the USA.)
I have written these books in love and gratitude in the hope that these pages will blend peacefully into my readers’ lives. These loving novels are wonderful gifts for the Self and Dear Ones to explore your own passions, while appreciating each season of nature’s gifts. Read these books in order for a sense of how simple pleasures and small acts of kindness can add up to connective positive changes that benefit all for ages.
