I love autumn. I always had an idea that it was my very season but I didn't really know until I moved from New England to California. Here we have a watered-down, almost non-existent version of Fall not the vibrant, crisp, electric, East coast one I grew up with. When I was going to college in Vermont I never really understood why people would travel from MILES away just to watch the freakin' foliage change color. I mean it's just a bunch of leaves, right? Yeah, well, when you have spent 25 years watching the colors change you take it for granted. Right about now I would give anything to jump in my car and drive 2000 miles just to see one red leaf. That's why moving back east is on my life to-do list (not for a couple years so don't worry, Dannikke). Also on that list is to own a barn. And I will have the most bumpin' "hooray it's Fall" barn dinner party you have ever seen. Here's a little tribute to that dream:

I won't (worry)... as long as you take me with you!
ReplyDeleteI imagine we'll all be over there eventually... I will as soon as I figure out how I can be paid for being cool.
I'm on it, by the way.
would you like me to send you some fall leaves?? i would do it in a second for an invite to your barn party and i promise to bring mulled cider and pumpkin pie with spiced cream :)
