I found this online and fell in love with it! I adore this time of year. It is the cool crisp mornings that lead to a warmish but still crisp afternoon with the bluest skies and the gorgeous golds, reds, browns and russets of the leaves as they cover the ground. The crunch as I walk through them and the wind rustling through the trees urging me to run through them like a child and the best part of having children of my own? Making leaf piles and jumping in! I always get nesty as well...I feel the need to bake and stock up on things like soups and beans and tinned tomatos and curry sauce. Things that warm me up! I get cravings for pumpkin and I mean cravings!! Not even like the "pumpkin spice" versions I want pumpkin be it fresh, frozen, sweet or savoury I love me some big orange ball! Mine sadly got eaten by a slug I hope he is pleased with himself but neve mind he obviously had a vitamin c deficiancy >:D I can't wait untill the stores start selling them (pumpkins not slugs teehee!) I plan on buying 3 or 4 and then a few for decorating with as well. I get giddy and excited in this season. Most people prefer summer...I prefer Autumn/Winter. This year I have two pumpkins to celebrate it with me....I plan on encouraging my girls to really go for it with the whole pumpkin and autumn exploration.
