Fall is my favourite season. I love September, when fall is just begining. There’s a little chill in the air and back to school excitment. October is the star of the season, with it’s bright colours, sunshine and falling leaves. November might be my favourite. I was born in November, so I’m a fall baby. I love rain and windy days. I like to have an excuse to curl up with a book and a cup of tea. If only I had a fireplace…
When I started posting monthly updates about the wonderful things in my life, I thought it would be hard to keep up. I surprised myself by not missing a month. Until now. The fall has been a busy, full, and happy time. I haven’t been posting much, so I’ve decided to do a what-made-me-happy-in-September-and-October post.
Treats from my patio garden.
A new tin for my tea. I actually think I bought this in August, but it still makes me happy!
My friend Ichih’s very photogenic cat.
Going to House of Paint.
Babies and pumpkins.
Baking apple everything!
Apple muffins.
Apple maple scones.
Apple and orange cookies.
I am a messy cook.
Going to the National Art Gallery with my students. I don’t particularly like this piece, but the kids were impressed.
Reading Gone Girl. Messed up. Fantastic. Read it now!
Early morning fall light.
Picking pumpkins.
Apple pie day! One of the best days of the year.
I tried to do the photo a day challenge for October. I did four days, then my camera got weird and wouldn’t work. I figured it out after a couple of days, but by then I had lost interest! Here’s what I got.
Day 1: Something colourful
Day 2: Light
Day 3: Me today
Day 4: In motion
And that’s that for October photo a day!
Thanksgiving with my family in the woods.
Finding treasures. What a great day this was!
New (to me) teacups.
Roasting pumpkins.
What made you happy this fall?
