Here's a lil PMJ:

We're basically one week out from the autumnal equinox, when the days and nights are the same length, harvesting continues, growing seasons are dwindling to a close for most produce, and the hot days of summer are a thing of the past.  Well, in theory.  In reality, we're still hitting triple digit figures once the heat index is factored in~~that Mississippi moistness will get ya every time.

Overall though, I do feel less summery and more fall~like.  Maybe it's partially due to football being heavily featured three or four days of the week; which means loud announcers on the TV, constant crowd noise, unintelligible referee calls, football players who sound vaguely like adults in Charlie Brown's world, and cringing dogs huddled under my computer desk.  It could also be the teas that I've been brewing and consuming, all of which have a distinctively autumn harvest or holiday spice flavor, as I was taste testing for selection of teas to offer in our fundraiser teacups and saucers in the effort to bring Moving in the Spirit, a dance troupe from Atlanta, here to Starkville.

Recently, we had our front door replaced and were considering curtains for it.  Mostly, the ones we viewed were autumnly themed, as that's the overarching decor of our home...we like the warm golds, burnt oranges, deep maroons.  I look ahead at the calendar to see what all is on our schedule and in addition to the football games, we'll be attending a PostModern Jukebox show in a few weeks.

  1. Hard to believe that summer is over when aluminum seats cause you to sit in a pool of sweat,. as you watch a high school football game that kicked off at 7:00 PM and the temp is still in the 90s! :-O
