Can you see it.... Can you feel it.... Can you smell it....

What am I talking about you ask - only the most glorious season of the year...

Fall

 Technically it's still about 3 or 4 weeks away, but who cares I will still say it's Fall after Labor day!

I can feel the change coming, the nights have a slight cooler breeze.  It's getting darker a tad bit earlier than it was last week.  We could go almost to 8:45 and still have light out.  Now, it's 8:30 and the sun is set. 

We'll be able to buy pomegranates from the market, yummy! I can also see the pecans on the trees, before you know they will be falling and ready for the picking. Soon pumpkins will start to appear.  I can go into Bed Bath & Beyond just to smell all the cinnamon scented pine cones and candles (yes, I do that). Baking treats is my absolute favorite thing to do....(squeal) ← can you tell I'm excited, lol!

Halloween and Thanksgiving decor is out.....Even Christmas is out.  Well in Hobby Lobby it is, they start putting it out in mid-July.  Crazy right, but they have a lot of space to set up. So I can understand.  I took out my Christmas tree's too, they have to be pre-fluffed. What...you don't pre-fluff the branches?  I know, I'm crazy but this is my favorite time of the year....I'm always super busy, I have classes at night, and my weekends are jam packed with errands, so  I start early. 

Between the studying and catching up on some movies with theHubs this weekend.  I will be trying my hand at baking.... breads, biscuits, rolls.  We'll see how that turns out.  I know it's still a little warm out, but I 'm so ready to start the Holiday cooking and baking. *\(",)/*

 Every one have a safe and wonderful Labor Day weekend!

Let's hear it for the Texans!!

The Texans season is over! Oh well.....yes we would have liked for them to go to the Super Bowl, but look how far they did make it.  We'll have to wait and see what happens next season.  It was a great day spending it with great friends and eating yummy food! i.e. men downstairs screaming like the players can hear them and women upstairs talking crafts and playing on the wii!!  Good times!! Since I'm not really that big of a football watcher, I do root for my home town teams and watch with the hubby.  I'm a baseball gal, so I can't wait for the season to start.....hopefully we'll have a better season than the embarrassing excuse of a season we had last year.


Well I'm off to watch the Golden Globes!! 




TTFN ♥
