Tomorrow is the first day of Fall. http://www.gather.com/viewArticle.action?articleId=281474977820476&grpId=3659174697244816  This day is called the autumnal equinox, which is the day of equal light and dark. After having the best summer I can remember, I am really looking forward to the Fall. I have pulled out a few sweaters already and can’t wait to put on boots again. The leaves are turning shades of red, amber, gold, and bright yellow. We’ll start lighting the fire again and drinking tea and hot chocolate. We’ll savor our last few evenings out at the fire pit playing charades. Most of all, I am excited about Fall food. Once the weather cools down, I love to make soups and stews. I have pumpkins growing in my garden and will attempt to make pumpkin pie this Fall. I also love roasting pumpkin seeds with salt and garlic. And, the greatest thing of all about this Fall…Thanksgiving will be held at my house. All of my family from California will be travelling here. I’m thinking about making a turducken.
