Harvest

Fall is nigh.

There is a distinct crispness in the air. The nights are growing cooler. The tomatoes in the garden are busting off the plants. My favorite time of year has arrived at last! 

First signs of fall

Fall has always held a special place in my heart. My husband and I were married in the fall, on a beautiful October day five years ago. When the leaves start to change into a collage of reds, oranges, yellows and greens my heart sings! Fall implies an end to a crazy tourist season in my town, this is always a welcome change! Fall means I can binge watch Halloween movies! Fall brings pumpkin season and with it pumpkin muffins, breads and soups! Fall is apple season - my mouth is watering thinking about apple pie, fresh apple sauce, and apple cider! Fall means sweater weather, since I live in a northern climate most of my wardrobe consists of "fall weather" clothes, thus I cannot wait to start wearing my sweaters and stylish woolen skirts!

Fresh cherry tomatoes from the garden!

I welcome you, Fall!
