Fall....

I can't tell you how happy I am. It's September! Finally, the dreaded month of August is over and done with!

After having lived in Michigan for two years, fall became a favorite time of year for me. I love the falling leaves, the cooler temperatures, and the vibrant trees. I'm hoping - though I'm afraid to jinx it - that our 100+ degree days are at an end. Fall, though not quite here, is on the horizon. The forecast looks promising so I'm cautiously hopeful. Never mind that our forecasters are rarely correct. Last night, for example, they did not accurately predict severe thunderstorms!

I think I shall celebrate this weekend with cookie baking! And muffin baking! Yes, that sounds perfect! (For some reason, I'm in a baking mood!)
