Changing seasons

[Alysser]

The hunting gear comes out pretty early in my family..but I'd say when I take a hike and see all the beautiful colors! We're supposed to get our first snowfall tonight.

I would say the warmer weather but not this year. Coldest November in about 19 years lol. And we still have at least another week of cool temps.

One question: Who ordered the snow??? Karen????

When I replaced my cotton sheets to my flannel sheets was a sign for me that the colder weather is here which I love by the way. Also the leaves falling gave me my first hint that Fall and Winter were on it's way. Today we even had snow showers but of course nothing stuck to the ground, thank goodness, not ready for the S word yet

My favorite Season is Autumn, I just love it and don't mind Winter either altho I don't like snow and ice. The cold weather doesn't bother me tho.

I first notice the shorter daylight hours that signal Winter is coming. The sunlight, when we get it, shines directly through my kitchen
windows. It creates a nice warm spot for kitties sunbath. I used to keep several blankets layed out on that spot for my kitties & they loved
it. Joey, my one cat left, doesn't seem to seek out the sun like the others did.

Ooh - and the "special teas" - the seasonal ones appear! I am currently sipping some "Nutcracker Sweet" - vanilla and cinnamon (almost imperceptible on the cinnamon side) tea, and there's some "gingerbread spice: in the cabinet!

Do you change your eating/drinking habits with the changing season?

Do you change your eating/drinking habits with the changing season?

Definitely! In summer I eat more fresh foods, stir-fries, things done on the grill, stuff like that. But in the cold weather it's all comfort food - soup, stew, pasta, bread, and the like. From Halloween candy to Thanksgiving turkey and all the trimmings, then on to a million zillion Christmas goodies I'm trying to eat more healthfully for the next couple of weeks leading up to Thanksgiving.
