Do you have any autumn rituals? I
always try to do a foliage drive. This year I went all the way from Maryland
to Vermont.

Thinking about
raking leaves and clearing out the garden. I wish I had time to do them.

I do my winterizing
chores and nag my husband about doing his. Local cider and heirloom apples
are available down the road at the farm stand. I admire the fall foliage
and the morning mists and impudence of hybrid marigolds that survive frost.
I glory in the end of flea season.

Just pulling
out the skis, and hoping that winter comes quickly.

I like the
smell of the leaves and need to get some mums and pumpkins for outside.
I put up orange lights and leaves around the outside door. I put up orange
and black lanterns around the bay window inside. Yankee candle pumpkin
burning. I do the elaborate carvings on the pumpkins and roast the pumpkin
seeds in lots of butter and salt. Yum!

When I was
a little girl, mom would pile my brother and I into her car and we would
take off for rural roads to spot the beautiful changing leaves. Mom's
favorite trees were the bright red sugar maples. It was like fireworks
in the daytime. I still go for drives looking at the beautiful trees.

Nothing besides
putting summer clothes away for the season and figuring out what still
fits me this year. Then there's the obvious... looking forward to giving
out candy to the kiddies on Halloween; I think I get more of a kick out
of seeing them at my door than I did going trick-or-treating as a kid!

Yes. Among
them are celebrating my birthday, decorating for Halloween, and watching
the turkey on the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade. And time with families,
and stuff. Or is Thanksgiving not officially in fall?
