Welcoming Fall


Yesterday was the perfect weather for the first day of Fall in our hood. Overcast, cool and some quiet time inside watching football. Yep, perfect.

Ohhh how I love this season!
I love...
How the days are slowing getting shorter. A rest for nature but also for us.
Cool nights and warm days.
Planting seeds for a winter harvest.
Soups, Chowder and Chili.
Football, of course!
The feel of my knitting needles back in my hands and the clacking sounds they make.
Falling leaves and their rainbow of colors.
Warmth from a fireplace.
Pumpkin Pie
Boots
Apple harvest
Scarfs and Sweaters, yay!

How about you guys, what do you love about Fall and what's your favorite season?

  5. Amen, sister! I love going to bed at 8 pm and not feeling guilty! I love making crocheted rag rugs, the warmth of the goat when I milk her, kale, collards, Swiss chard, and hot apple cider, hot herbal tea with local honey and oh, how I love the change of the seasons. But, talk to me in February, I'll be ready for July.....

  6. walks after work in the dark
    lights on in folks homes so I can take a peek inside to see their coziness
    dutch ovens slow baking for hours
    vintage room lights casting soft glow
    hand knit throws to cover up while movie watching
    mugs....filled with warm surprises
    the slow resting pace for the soul
