First Day of Fall

Happy First Day of Fall, friends!

I've already aired out my down comforter and put it on my bed. (Maybe prematurely. :) And last night I baked the first batch of cookies since early spring. I'm excited to dust off my dutch oven, get back to baking, and cozy up to my grill on chilly nights. And then, of course, there's the opaque tights, beautiful coats, scarves, and beanies. Does anybody not like fall?

"Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns."

- George Eliot
