It's been a busy week at Trish's. Everything is disappearing, and even soon the farmstand will be empty.
Frost has kissed Chicagoland, but days have been beautiful. Dusk brings falling seasonal temps for October.
Late in the day Lara and Emilie are doing some last minute shopping!
Lara: Hi, Emilie...can you believe all the choices here?
Emilie: Very fine, so much color and the courge and potiron, how you say?
Lara: Pumpkins and Squash...yes they are very colorful.
Emilie: Dees Squash with zee painted faces...so adorable.
...and ce chat noir, ees adorable. Henri, we must have this for the patio.
Henri: Yes, the squash cat is...very seasonal for Halloween. Did you see anything else you want?
Emilie: There is so much to see, let's look everywhere.
Lara: Everything looks so festive, and you must have been very busy over the weekend.
Trish: We were wiped, my brother and cousin were here this morning with a complete restock. I don't think we can last until Halloween. The farm was so busy this weekend to. I feel guilty staying in the city.
Lara: The shop is fun too, can you make up two of those small pumpkin arrangements for me. I have two new sales, and I want them to feel welcome at the new project on Asher. We only have two units left.
Trish: Flowers, or just produce and pods? I can have them boxed up and delivered tomorrow afternoon.
Lara: Your choice and tomorrow will be perfect. I love all your seasonal changes, I can't wait to have a real place of my own, soon. Living in whatever is left over on a project isn't really my choice.
Lara: I see no one is in at Vickie's. I know she had more electrical issues this weekend. Honestly I'm pretty dumbfounded...we can't figure it out what is going on.
Lara: That tree is spooky fun----love that moldy green stuff, y and it sorta glows in the dark.
Trish: That tree was fun---say do you want to catch some supper, after I close up everything!
Lara: Sure...and it looks like they are ready to pay.
Henri: We never did Halloween in Montreal when I was young.
Emilie: Nor, I in Paris. You have so many scary things, I love the pumpkeens, and zis sweet chat.
Trish: That is almost our last painted gourd cat. We have an artist that does those for us, and they have sold very well.
Trish: We try to have fun things each year. Do you want these wrapped or just take them as is?
Henri: This is fine, we only have a short walk.
Trish: Good night and thank-you for shopping here.
Trish: Now to remember all the lights!
...I hope we will have enough stock, it's still three weeks until Halloween.
I think that's it for this side.
Fence is closed. Now to turn off the shop and the last of the lights.
Lara: Well, what are you hungry for?
Trish: Anything but pumpkin, squash or apples....LOL.
