I don’t know about you, but I am ready for cooler weather.
Apple cider and hot tea, soups and stews bubbling on the stove.
Knitting that can pile up in your lap and you’re happy for the warmth.
The smell of fallen leaves, the wind bringing a whiff of smoke from a neighbor’s chimney, the cool dampness that follows a rainstorm as the leaves begin to decompose.
The taste of warm caramel, a sip of hot chocolate. Maybe homemade pie.
Hand-knit socks and layers.
It’s going to stay in the upper 80’s (and hit 90′ today) this whole week, and I’m being selfish, I want the whole season, not a fast-forward slide into winter. Hurry up Fall. We’re waiting!
