The Holidays are coming. Halloween is the start of a wonderful time of the year. The apples, pumpkins and the changing of the seasons. Follow me on facebook and check out all the fall pics and recipes for the holidays. 

5,000 Pumpkins & Counting. Happy Halloween

This is the time of year that I miss living in New England. The fall is colorful and crisp. Full of pumpkins, leaves and corn stalks. You can smell the cinnamon brooms in every store that you walk into. This is a little clip of a great pumpkin patch in Croton on Hudson New York.  5,000 pumpkins were carved out. Enjoy.

Fall and Autumn Are The Best Times of Year

Autumn is coming, autumn is coming. This is my favorite time of the year. Pumpkins, gourds, leaves of many colors and scarecrows. What more could a girl from New England want. We moved from CT to Florida to beat the ice and snow about 10 years ago.  But I miss the crisp weather when you dig out that first sweater of the year. The trees start to change colors. Walking in the woods and watching the squirrels gather acorns for the winter. The last of the veggies from the garden are pulled up. Pumpkins and gourds are everywhere. Nothing better than lighting a fire with a cup of hot cocoa to get warm. 

Picking just the right pumpkins for your front porch. 

Leaf peeking through the  rolling hills of the countryside.

Decorating is more fun in the fall.
Grapevines, pumpkins  and crows. 

Not so scary scarecrows on bails of hay. 

Cookies baking in the oven. Oh the smell. 

The front door always ready to welcome friends and neighbors. 

The wonderful smells of cinnamon and orange.
