Fall-ing

At this moment, and on this lovely first day of autumn, I am...

:: smelling the vat of chicken vegetable soup simmering on the stove as I type.  (Hopefully I don't drool on the keyboard...)

:: waiting excitedly to leave and pick up M from school.  

:: thinking how perfect the weather is - so crisp and cool and sunny - definitely my ideal fall day.  (Our windows are always open and the thermostat off these days.)

:: enjoying the garden even as it winds down (especially the sudden influx of "late" ripening tomatoes).

:: remembering such a great weekend wedding spent connecting with family I haven't seen in years.  (Congrats Heather & Pete!)

:: organizing my sewing and crocheting projects for the week.  (Hurray for projects!) 

:: planning another trip to the apple orchard - we are down to 3 apples.  (They might last till tomorrow... or not.)

:: wishing you all the fullness and beauty of a fall day.
