So far what we’ve seen of October puts us in the mood for flannels and woolens and comfort foods.  Perhaps hot cups of tea with our afternoon knitting by the fire.

It’s chilly and damp and foggy, and I had to put my boots on just to go out and get the mail.

The mums are showing off their autumn shades.

So are the trees.

Furble likes to follow me to the mailbox and back – today she only came out from her warm and dry spot in the garage because there was a break from the rain.

Inside I finished the October – inspired pillows for the couch.  It was a good place to curl up and watch a scary movie after school.

It’s time to  start preparing for the cozy months.
