I love fall, and I was afraid I had missed it this year - we were just hurtling on toward winter. Happily, nature has taken a fall detour, at least for the moment. The sky has finally gotten that distinct blue color that only comes in autumn, and the sun is still warm though softer. And my dear friend and I are planning a fall party for this weekend! Combining two of my favorite things - planning and fall. It will be just lovely - pumpkins, popcorn balls, harvest treats, a bonfire. *contented sigh* I will make the cutest little pumpkin candle-holders and some spice cupcakes and some maple leaf-shaped cookies.
