Pots are inside for winter

Today, we emptied patio pots...I brought in a lot of plants to repot into smaller containers...windy, cool and sunny weather....hubby cut down rest of tomato plants....I had picked a lot of little green tomatoes a couple of days ago and today I made green tomato mincemeat....my house smelled like Christmas...so fragrant and nice. All that is left in the garden is: carrots, green onions, celery and dahliahs and lavetera....I have to pick the seed pods off the lavetera for next year's garden and dig up the dahliah tubers....another day.
After supper, I hurriedly potted all the geraniums, begonias, ivy, and other plants into pots...it gets dark so early now...yuk....
Busy day....but productive.
We had shepherd's pie for supper....it was yummy!
