♥ Three wee pumpkins to match my three tiny teddy bears.
I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.
(L. M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables)
Autumn has always been my favourite season, it exudes such vibrancy of colour just before the pale shades of winter envelop everything, the air is crisp and cool and caresses your cheek with the dramatic change in season, and food seems more robust and vivacious somehow, as though prepared with a consciousness of the dullness of winter to follow. Working two jobs and barely finding time to sleep enough makes the time on the weekends feel that much more precious, and what do I spend that time doing? Stuffing my face with the (mostly) homemade joys of cold weather recipes! No regrets. :P
