Martha Stewart is looking back on a special weekend with her granddaughter's friends.
On Tuesday, Oct. 15, the celebrity chef, 83, shared a carousel of photos on her Instagram that included snaps of thank-you notes she received from her 13-year-old granddaughter Jude's friends after hosting a girls' weekend for them at her home.
"Beautiful thank you notes from my weekend guests (age 13) at the farm! Thanks for bringing your friends Jude -they are lovely girls," Stewart wrote in her caption.
One letter thanked Stewart for the weekend the girls spent at the farm, writing, "You cooked for us + organized this great event instead of going to the spa. I appreciate all you do every time I come!"
Another added, the "food & activities were divine. You have such a nice property & are a great grandma for having us over."

A third thanked the proud grandma for a weekend filled with trips to the pumpkin patch, horseback riding and baking. "I'm so thankful for you, for it all. Your cooking was very good and I appreciate the time you spent with us when you could have been at the spa, not losing sleep over silly children," the note read.
Stewart is grandma to daughter Alexis' two kids, Truman, 12, and Jude.
Speaking to PEOPLE in October, Stewart told PEOPLE she's happy to meet her grandkids where they're at when it comes to quality time.
"It's a phenomenal thing," she said of their time together. "Billie Eilish is coming up and then there's Jingle Ball and all of those concerts which I attend very religiously with my granddaughter."
"We eat at some very good restaurants. The children are quite experienced foodies. Their mother's a fabulous cook and they love going out to eat, especially Japanese food and other really good ethnic foods."
She also spoke about how much she enjoys hosting Jude and her friends for a celebration of fall one weekend each autumn.
"I have a lot of apple trees and we go picking apples. My granddaughter brings her school friends, 13-year-olds, and they've made a kind of annual tradition of it. They pick apples, bushels of them, and they make cider and take home great big jars of cider," she shared.
"Then they sleep overnight. The next day we'll go pumpkin picking. It's a real autumnal weekend for the girls. I like making traditions like that."
