Joining in the Rhythm

Autumn has such a sweet cadence to it.  Crisp mornings, warm afternoons, early evenings.  Soups begin to be simmered, ovens are warmed after the long summer dormancy, and the scents of home glow with kindly invitation.  And there are apples!  Red and yellow and green; sweet and tart and crunchy.  In WA where I grew up we had them coming out our ears, but here in MT they are a treat.  And so ... we treated ourselves to a day in the orchard and came home with a bushel of delights.

I see apple pie, & apple crisp, & applesauce, & apple cider in our future!
