FALLing Back Into Blog Mode

It would be safe to say we had a busy, if not exhausting summer.  I will post pictures, soon.  I'm getting back in the mood to write, to blog, to create.  Anything.  Fall weather itself inspires me.  I took a day off work last week just so that I could stay home and decorate the house for fall.

I find that if I stay up with reading regularly and organizing a time just for my own learning and enrichment, I'm more motivated.  I'm starting with some online lectures at NYU.  I'm sitting in on lectures about early American literature.  It's a start.

I plan on taking advantage of the fall weather as much as possible, visiting every farmers market, fall festival or historical landmark that I can, squeezed in between my son's football practices and games.  And thrift stores...  I think the fall is the best time for thrifting!

I get back into the kitchen a lot more as the weather cools, too.  I hardly bake in the summer, and dinners are pretty much whatever is thrown on the grill -or- a lot of baseball tailgate type foods.  (Hot dogs and macaroni salad, anyone?)

So yes- recipes will hopefully be making a comeback!

Happy fall...
