Hello, dear friends! I wanted to pop in with a few glimmers of what autumn has looked like for me. Warm cups of cappuccino and the best mixed berry cream cheese danish at the cutest french bakery, lots of candlelight as I'm not a fan of the early, dark evenings, cozy meals, matcha at home topped with frothy almond milk and a sprinkle of cinnamon, lots and lots of walks, our sweet Rosie, sunsets always and forever - and even more important to me this time of year, when the days are short, fresh baked chocolate chip blondies, and the cutest book that I just started which will hopefully help to get me in the mood for the upcoming holidays. Not photographed, but I'm also watching lots of cozy holiday movies, too!
How are you spending these autumn days? We are expecting a cold front overnight, bringing our first cold burst of the season. We will definitely be turning on the heat tonight. How's the weather where you live? Thanks for visiting, and have a great week!











How am I spending Autumn? HIKING HIKING AND MORE HIKING!! I hiked SIX different trails in September; 5 in October and so far in NOvember: 2 with 2 more before Thanksgiving. (I lead a faith based hiking group that I founded when I retired 2 years ago). I'm also enjoying a mug of steaming tea (Vermont Maple and Ginger) with my fresh made chippy blond brownies I made yesterday evening when I returned from a day in the mountains hiking. I also light candles when it gets dark here around 4:30 and we have been practicing our music for the Choir (Xmas eve service). Oh and taking lots of walks daily (when I'm not hiking), beginning to make heartier meals, reading lots of good books and getting caught up on Netflix, Hulu, prime, etc etc.
ReplyDeleteOur weather here in eastern NY has been mild...we haven't lost all of our leaves yet, peak color was 2 weeks later than normal, and we haven't had a hard frost yet although that might change later this week. Today is dreary grey with rain. I love Autumn!! (and I don't typically read Xmas novels but I do watch a few movies. Started one on netflix last night but honestly couldn't get into it.).
Well, Hello there! I am so happy to share some cozy autumn momnets with you, my friend. I think we spend our days in very much the same way, and that makes me happy! Everything looks so warm and inviting, just as autumn should. I also like the candle light during the early evenings, and the Christmas tree lights as well. I hope you are well, and please keep posting! I hope sophomore year is going well!
