Dont forget your pumpkin caps!

I have been working on pumpkin caps for the whole family.  I now think I have enough caps for all the family even the cats and dogs.  Yes, I have been making them in the pet sizes too.  I have been working on a few preemie sizes too.  I have given some caps to the "Care Wear" group for the hospitals they send to. I think that all babies need to have some fun caps for their clothes.   But, it is getting close to that time of year for the Pumpkins to be made into pies and treats and of course the all important Jack O' Lantern. 

I have been making them for the show out in Middletown, Maryland there at Jumbo's Pumpkin Patch. They have a crafts barn there for many peoples crafts.  They have Fall times and Christmas too.  They are open on the weekends starting next weekend on Friday.   So, if you want a ride in the country go visit them and enjoy a hay ride. While out there pick out that Fall goodies that you want for the porch or the table inside. Then go in and visit with them in the crafts barn.  Oh, an don't forget to wear your pumpkin cap or pick one up out there.

Fall fell and the rain came by for a visit

Yes, today was the first day of Fall.  The weather was very much like Fall with the dark skies and the wind clouds. The threat of rain was holding back till just about the time most people were getting home from work.  This week we have had the Great Frederick Fair here in Frederick. For once I thought we might get thou without rain. But it came one the last day.

Fall can be very odd around here in Md. We can have a cold wet Fall or we can have a warm wet Fall.  The chilly weather can stay away for all I truly care.  I am not one for the cold, wet, snowy and damp weather. Tonight is wet and mild.  Bring on the rain we really need it. Just don't get cold on us just yet, Please!


Happy first day of a wet Fall Ya all!

Fall is here and Halloween is out in the stores.

I found myself walking thru the Halloween goodies today while out and about. Many things to pick out. Candy bags for the pup treats, Halloween ribbon for ties and strings.  I have been working on something very new for Halloween or just Fall thru Thanksgiving.  I will soon have a picture of it for the Etsy shop I have.  www.NannyGoatCrafts.etsy.com !  Once it is up there will be a limit to how many there will be made.

With the caps for all members of the family in the pumpkin style there are mittens too.  I have been thinking of other pumpkin things to make like the pumpkin cat nip toys that are in the site.


Fall is one of my favorite times of the year.  I have been  looking for the teas and the coffees that are out now and they make  a good change from the regular flavors.  I have gone out into the garden and picked up 3 pumpkins that grew on the vines in my backyard.  Yes Mac, they grew this year and gave me 5.  I am thinking of making a pie out of one.  The others will come in and be used for Jack o"lanterns.

Just keep and eye out for the new Items in our web and remember to order early.

Happy Fall Ya all!!

The Flu is going to the dogs.!!

Dear pet owners,  Yes it is going to the dogs.  I have heard that it has hit in Montgomery's county.  It is not a nice flu and it spreads from dog to dog.  The happy note is that there is a shot that can be given to your dog to keep it from getting the flu.  Please go and visit your vet with you pup and get that shot.  A good idea for we all want to keep our babies well and happy.
Thank you for your time to read this.
