Even feeling as terrible as I have been this past month, I can't help but be grateful for the arrival of my favorite season. The crisp, cool air. The ripening apples on my apple tree. The chrysanthemums. The changing foliage. The promise of caramel apples, cozy sweaters, and hot chocolate. That back-to-school feeling. Sparkling, lovely autumn. It makes me want to bake a pecan pie. It makes me want to throw a party. It makes me want to read books in the park, greeting passersby in my sauciest British accent. And though none of this is likely in my current state of physical discomfort, you know where to find me next fall. Good day Gov'na!

My Favorite Season
Even feeling as terrible as I have been this past month, I can't help but be grateful for the arrival of my favorite season. The crisp, cool air. The ripening apples on my apple tree.

yes, autumn is very good season. reminds me of going to julian for apples and betting on when the first snow will hit utah...and i always did like utah for the aspen groves and meadows this time of year. smiles!
Fall is my favorite season too.
My favorite holiday is Halloween and I like death...
... of the leaves on the trees, when they turn flaming orange, red, and yellow.
'Tis Sublime.
"My favorite holiday is Halloween and I like DEATH?!?" I can't believe I sleep next to you every night... unconscious... totally vulnerable.
And the death of the leaves on the trees is actually just hormones being released by the trees. ...Kind of like hormones making Diana puke.
Here's to hormones!
Just hearing the above comments makes me feel like I know these people! How intriguing!
Yes Fall is my absolute favorite time of year. It's possible that it has to do with meeting my hubby in the fall, and birthing my three adorable children all in october. I love this "crispy" time of year. And I am sorry about your vomitie-ness. . .go outside and take a deep breath and inhale some of the crispy, dead leaf, fallen to the ground apparently from overdose of hormones, . .fall smell!
Hooray for Fall! I'm glad you can find some joy in the season to distract you from your yucky all-day sickness ;)
You're lucky you're already feeling the effects of fall...it's still summer here. It's so dang hot. Milk was a bad choice.
My word verification is okdogp. I couldn't not share that.
I'm still pregnant! Aaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!! Someone get this kid out of me!!!!!
Yes, fall is OK, but summer is still better.
Thanks, Di, for inspirting me about what is to come here in So Cal. It is still so hot! But it is supposed to cool off and rain this weekend!!! YAY!! I pray so! I have always loved fall for all the same reasons. It invigorates and stimulates me to ambition and creativity.
FALL! FALL! FALL!
(and, Ange, no, not okdogp! NO!)
