Autumnal Equinox
Everyone says there are few things that can compete with the spectacle of an east coast autumn. I got my first peek yesterday, with the tree in the park flashing a swatch of red like a lady of the night flashing her gams. The tease promises a good show.
The first herald came last weekend... the temperature dipped low enough for a couple of days to warrant a quilt on the bed, socks on my feet, and a jacket in the morning. Warm in the sun, but chill in the shade, especially at the end of the day. Thoughts turning to soups and stews, and other chances to use the new (gloriously orange) dutch oven I bought this summer.
Here comes fall....
