Next time, you may want to try the icing, as I did this time. It's not a part of the "original" recipe, but I think it adds a nice touch.<br /><br />Ida, how nice you can sit inside and watch the sunsets. We have rain today, and lots of it. Hoping you'll get sunny days soon; the grey murk hanging about becomes depressing after awhile!<br /><br />Darla, magic indeed. I seem to prefer sunsets to sunrises (for photos) for some reason.<br /><br />Mette, these were taken around 6 p.m.; at the present time, it is completely dark by 6:30. So these are taken just before the sun disappears behind the trees in the west. These are definitely the last of the summer flowers, except the camellia, which is naturally a fall bloomer. The mums and pansies also are fall bloomers but I do not have those at the present time.sandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17355232032181406759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258431463372570480.post-10180702923399787472012-10-12T10:10:06.923-05:002012-10-12T10:10:06.923-05:00Late afternoon - about what time?

Your sun is setting quite early?<br />Sunny days have been scarce over here too, all I see is a gray sky.<br />But your pictures are so pretty, including the last flowers, or are they the last ones?<br />The cake = yummy!mettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13732534795009852825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258431463372570480.post-81987747809374341002012-10-12T07:29:10.827-05:002012-10-12T07:29:10.827-05:00Lovely sky photos.
