Autumn here in the northeast is one of the most beautiful times of year.  The vibrant colors, the smells, pumpkins and apples.  The familiar.  Once again, the turn of the seasons, the things that stay true and we connect to.  The sunlight looks different at this time of year, more subdued and golden and when it shines on a maple in full color the affect is absolutely glorious!  The shortened days beckon us to retreat inside to some of our favorite fall foods and recipes.  This is when I love candles in the late afternoon, cozy and welcoming.  I’ll be pulling our my Halloween decor soon, which always adds a bit of whimsy and fun to the season as well.  Time to warm up the house, pull out a throw and drape it over the couch.  Light some candles and wrap yourself around Autumn.
