It's October 31st and Mother Nature has been hard at work coloring the landscape with golden leaves and frosty mornings. My hydrangeas began in late spring with large blue blossoms that gradually turned pink. They've dried on the bush and are a stunning display.
I would love to have this view outside my living room window. This morning, while my dog and I were on our morning walk, I smelled wood fires burning. I imaged families curled up before the hearth, sipping tea and reading the Saturday paper.
This old-fashioned poster takes me back to my childhood. We took Halloween very seriously. Our parents did not buy costumes at the store for us. We made our own from scrapes of material and were always proud of our accomplishments.
Tonight after all the little children have finished Trick-or-treating, I'll curl up before our fireplace with a drink and relax with a good book. Wishing everyone a happy and safe Halloween!
