Officially Autumn

I was supposed to have plans this morning and had arranged for a babysitter. The plans did not materialize but I didn't want to cancel the sitter as the kids were very excited to have a "playdate" - so here I am at my favourite coffeehouse with a grande house blend and a laptop.

I've been reading other blogs and accidentally stumbled back on my own pitiful blog - with three posts in 3 years. Not exactly indicative of all thing things I "intend" to say.

As I walked out the door this morning I immediately turned back around for my wrap - and realized that if I were chilly enough for a wrap, it mean autumn had finally arrived. I'm not complaining; I love the crispness in the air and the smell of the falling leaves, even if my perennial brown-eyed susans are now in need of being cut down for next year and the remnants in the garden need to be pulled.

It also means there's new soups to try and crock pots to dig out.

Fall is here. Let the comfort food cooking begin!

Once a year?

Wow - I just decided to try to remember what the title of my blog was so I could post something new. Several of my friends and acquaintances have begun working on new blogs and I thought I might join them.

It was somewhat disheartening to discover that I've posted twice in the last two years. Sigh.

I wonder if I'll have a better track record now that I'm putting the kids on the school bus each morning.
