Yes, it is a bittersweet season and you have elegantly stated that Penny.
How interesting. Fall is my very favorite season. It's when I think of the excitement of going back to school, cool nights at the football games, the beauty of the changing leaves, being able to be outside without bugs! It's when I come back to life after the horrible heat of summer.
Of course I like winter better than summer, so there you go... to each his own, but I love the cool brisk air, fresh apples, pumpkin seeds, oh my, there are so many things I love about fall.....
Which reminds me, it's time to start cooking some home made applesauce to go with my pork chops tonight
