It's so freaking HOT
Oh deary me! I am dreaming of fall...and the sun is melting my freaking trash can outside still. Mmmm, what is your favorite season? Mine is absolutely fall, unabashedly fall, I get excited just thinking about snuggling up with a good blanket and pillows on a chair outside, with a good book and a brandy. Isn't this mood board from Snippet and Ink fabulous? I just love Kathryn's eye, she is so talented.
It is a time for baking! And how amazing does the Tartine book cover look? Well, that isn't a question, it looks perfect, so there.
Also, I admit that I am already thinking about Thanksgiving, O and I will be in Mexico for a week before, and it is our turn to host this year. I am already dreaming of garlands and yummy smells in the house and warm cider and creamy linens....oh my. This image from Country Living is my ideal, I wonder where I can find plates like that....
In the spirit, I think you should consider buying some cashmere sweaters now...how about this one?
Holy chicken! (as my niece likes to say). You are so spot on. I am such a sucker for fall. Particularly the very early stages, when the air starts getting crisp at night, the sky turns super blue and the shadows get deeper. Why do we yearn for a different season when we should really be soaking up the one we're in? Curious creatures, we are.
ReplyDeleteOh, you are right, buuutttt, summer in Atlanta is miserable, can't be outside unless you are covered in mosquito repellent, and even walking to the car feels like torture....just letting the dog out gets me bitten up and sweaty, and it lasts half the freaking year here, bummer.
ReplyDeleteFall is my favorite too! I love cozy sweaters and crunchy leaves. Plus my birthday is in September, so that doesn't hurt either!
ReplyDeleteFall is my top favorite too. We had a fall wedding, like you did, for just that reason. I love Tartine! It is my favorite bakery and near our apartment. It's in a great neighborhood you would love with great shops and a city park right down the street where there's a view of the city and the bay. If you make it to San Francisco before we move, we can go there. Also, SF never gets above 75 degrees- crazy, right? We're in Atlanta now (me and Lois - A comes this weekend). Maybe we could hang out if you guys are around.
ReplyDeletelove the snippet & ink board!!
ReplyDeleteAnd that gorgeous cashmere sweater...!?!?! on clearance for under $50!! whoa...

Vive l'automne! I love the horseshoe name tags, what an amazing idea for a fall/farm/"lucky" event...
ReplyDeletei'm with you girlie...holy hell it's hot in texas right now.
ReplyDeleteI am a sucker for the crisp air and the beauty of fall, too. However here in my neck of the woods we are, for the first time in many years, having a glorious summer! Cool nights and warm, not hot days... it has been wonderful!
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness, i am starving all of a sudden. these photos are amazing!
