There is nothing that compares to fall. The days are warm and the nights are cool, great sleeping weather.It is a time of wealth for sounds, colors and smells. The sounds of crumble leaves under our feet, the colors of the leaves, burnt orange, fire red, sunflower yellow and a plethora of every shade of browns against a sky of white billowing clouds.
It almost overwhelms our senses. Suddenly the cool crisp air is full of the smells of burning wood, wet leaves, pumpkins, and apples. We enter into a world of beauty every where we look. You say that you aren't ready to surrender summer. The sun, fun, and recreational sports but there is a change in air. The first preseason football game is scheduled, there is talk of the World Series, You notice all of the Halloween, Fall, and Thanksgiving decorations are in the stores. Bombarding you with thoughts of decorating.
Decorating season is here. We need to decorate everything that doesn't move. Get out the accent light, wreaths and baking dishes. Baking, it is harvest time, time to make Zucchini Bread, can those peaches, and core those apples.
Back to decorating. God will take care of the countryside. You need to pay your attention to the house and yourself.
During this season we turn on our light, light our candles and warm up our rooms with a roaring fire.
The apple pie is in the oven. The smell of cinnamon and apples meanders through the house.
I love change. Time to dig out your yarn. There are sweater, shawl, scarves and pumpkins to knit or crochet.
Until
we meet again,
Claudia
