  1. I always find it interesting that as you approach fall, I approach spring

  2. I don't know how you always manage to find totally green scenes!With the word origins, I looked up what the present word form for acorn in Dutch is, and I found it is "eikel." Always fun to see how words in different languages are related and change.

  3. Acorn/Ghindă, so lovely to see it; most in the forest of oak trees in autumn, as well... So pretty for home decorations to be made when available!
    Best regards in March!
