the first day of autumn edition...
1) It's finally time to let go of summer, although today was sunny and warm outside. I love the way the leaves that are beginning to change colour look against a bright blue sky.
2) I bought some cute little chocolate autumn leaves from Purdy's and put these together last night for the staff at my school. Little things can brighten your day, especially in September.
3) I found some great autumn photograhy tips HERE.
4) Colin attended the World Wheelchair Rugby Championships at the Richmond Oval today with his school. They had a wheelchair rugby demo at the school in the spring so were excited to go. Colin said it was cool to see how the inside of the Oval has changed since the Olympics.
5) As they do every autumn, the spiders are taking over, inside and outside of our house. I find them fascinating although I know not everyone will agree with me on this ;)
6) To me, autumn fruits are apples, pears and cranberries. I'm looking forward to making some yummy crisps and pies and maybe some apple or pear butter.
7) I wanted to make some autumn-ish cookies after dinner this evening and saw the crystallized ginger in my pantry so decided to make the chai spice cookies that I have made before. So good with a cup of tea.
8) I took a small bag of cookies over to Gil this evening for her birthday (Happy Birthday Gillian!) and used my go to packaging these days...glimmermisted tag, bakers twine and brown paper bag!
9) Autumn means hockey and we (well, Neil really) are enjoying the Canucks first pre-season game on tv this evening.
10) And a full moon, autumn sunset to end the day...
Welcome autumn!
