The way the setting sun lights the birch and aspen a flickering gold against the darkening sky
Warm sweaters and thick socks
Hoping and dreaming of the future
The scent of snow on the wind
Friends stopping by to visit
Sloppy baby kisses
Boards going up on all the seasonal businesses in town; quieter streets and bittersweet goodbyes
The closeness of community, and knowing I've found home
Beautiful music
Cooking comfort food
Devouring book after book after book...
What are you lovin' these days?
We also have more gold and orange on the trees, but I prefer more sunny autumns. Greetings from Poland.
ReplyDeleteHi Zim! I'm with you on a sunnier autumn. It's been pretty grey here, too.
ReplyDeleteToday I am loving corn! Prepping a heap of it for the freezer.
ReplyDeleteAnd frosty mornings. My favorite!
And just curious- what books have you been reading? Anything good?
ReplyDeleteHi Kara,
DeleteDid you grow your own corn?
I read the Hunger Games trilogy in about 4 days, have you read it? It's impossible to put it down! I also just finished a homesteading memoir called "Made from Scratch" which was funny and a inspiring!
No corn growing here (yet)! Just from superstore. :)
ReplyDeleteI loved Hunger Games! I read the whole thing in about that time too. Ignored all housework and children! ahhah
I will have to look up that memoir. Right now I am reading a great zombie series called "Autumn". Addicting!
Hm, I love a good zombie story. I'll have to have a look in the library for that one!
