I had plans to have a really autumnal weekend . . . farmers’ market, fall foliage viewing, mulled cider, pumpkin bread — the works! However, I have had to alter my plans. Now . . .
- Stay inside
- Drink lotsa hot chocolate and lattes and other warm drinks
- Bake pumpkin bread and pumpkin muffins and maybe pumpkin pie? (An aside: I am so very into pumpkin. I tried to buy a few cans a couple weekends ago, and the grocery store was OUT! No pumpkin! Apparently everyone else in State College was making pumpkin stuffs that weekend, too. I eventually found some in another store, and bought about four cans. Then, last night, Chad and I were at the store, and right in front of the canned pumpkin was a sign informing us that there may be pumpkin shortages this season because of the POOR PUMPKIN CROP! What? I was distraught, and threw four more cans into the cart. There is so much pumpkin in our future and I cannot wait!)
- Make a herringbone skirt with this amazing fabric found on clearance at Joann Fabric:
- Shop for boots and sweaters . . . online
- Buy some cute Tretorn boots and a snow shovel (yes, a snow shovel)
It’s a lovely October in Central PA. Just delightful.
That tree is still full of green leaves because, you know, it’s October. I certainly won’t miss State College in the fall. I was super late to work because I got stuck in the driveway. Chad had to turn around and come back to push my car out because we don’t have a snow shovel. Because, you know, it’s October.
The worst part? It’s not done snowing. Sigh.
