And so it begins . . .
We celebrated the return of autumn on Sunday, our annual Fall Extravaganza. We ate split pea soup, cornbread, and walnut-Gorgonzola-cranberry salad, drizzled in a walnut-fig dressing; we sipped hard apple cider; we nibbled freshly baked chocolate cake; we exchanged gifts the likes of candles and napkins, pumpkin salsa and honeycomb chocolate.
A usual, it was an altogether delightful way to ring in our favorite time of year.
Also delightful: tomorrow my mum and I leave for a wee holiday. That means I’ll be frolicking for the remainder of the week. Since I’ve been something of a slacker the last few months, you’ll hardly notice a difference. There simply won’t be a post on Friday (there may be Instagram photos, however—in case you simply must know my goings on).
I do hope your week + weekend are stupendous. And I hope your autumn is off to the grandest of starts . . .
