Martha,
What a beautiful place to call your own. How can you bare to leave it everyday. Then again I enjoy you show so much, I believe you would have to do it once again from your home. Your pictures are magnificent. The rainbow a sign that you are watched over. Thank you for sharing your life.

Good afternoon Martha,

Your early morning photos are beautiful, and I particularly like the ones of the bee hives. I like that you showed different angles and told us how and why you protect the hives. Christmas feels so close.

Hi Martha,

I stumbled accross this blog while I was looking for chutney recipes

Anyway...Beautiful scenery! I am a designer/photographer and can appreciate the beauty of God's green earth. I have a tip for you... use your flash even during late evening or dusk shots.It will help to illuminate the fore/midground without effecting the beautiful sky clouds and color. There are other settings you can use on your camera to accomplish this, but I won't go into detail here.

I'd love to share some of my photography with you We have the same eye for nature and it's beauty.

On another note:
As a designer, I was noticing your logo on your website. I would like to take a stab at improving/re-designing it for you. It seems a little "non-Martha Srewart-ish" if you know what I mean. Not to discredit the designer who created it, but I just thought that based on your exuisit sense of style, your logo should carry the same level of style and finesse.

I have been an award winning designer for over 26 years. My specialty is logo design. I know I sound like I am spamming, but I am not, I just have an eye like yours and thought I would mention it.

I know how busy you must be, especially this time of year, but I hope you can respond. I have always enjoyed watching your tips, recipies, crafts throughout the years and have bought many of your books. Thank you!

Have a wonderful, safe and joyfull holiday season!

The photos are beautiful! What a lovely farm you have. Thank you for sharing those photos with us. I can smell the fresh rain soaked earth as I look at them.

My twin brother and his family live on Paddock Lane in Bedford (I grew up in White Plains) and every time I visit his home, it is magical. My husband and I now live on the southern shores of Lake Winnisquam in NH and it is just as beautiful with a snowfall today. By the way, I'm addicted to your oatmeal peanut butter chocolate chip cookies and make them at least 2x a week!

This is a beautiful scene. It is actually snowing here in TN. I love it. I would like to say I enjoy your show daily. You are an inspiration. Someday I hope to be there to see your show in person.

I know what you mean - I crave the sun after a rainstorm, and I'm so relieved when I finally get to see it!
