Autumn In Brentwood Ca 94513
Autumn arrived right on schedule in Brentwood last week - The first day of Fall September 23, 2011.
Fall may be the official Season but Autumn is something in the air.
The days are warm, but not the burning heat of Summer, inter-spaced with a blustery wind or a few showers. There is a smell in the air that some people say is the smell of decay, but that is not a good term for such a wonderful smell. I like to think of it as the smell of the harvest; the gardens and crops are in and the leaves are the color of gold.
The nights are cool and gentle; I still leave the window open but it is time for a few more blankets.
The kids are settled into school and football is everywhere; on the playground and streets; at the high school and on TV. The Boys of Summer are winding down the baseball, not just the pros, but young men in fall baseball and travel teams.
There is a gentle and excited anticipation of the coming Holidays. Momma is picking up her Blue Pumpkins (the best ones for cooking with) to prepare for pies, soups, breads, pancakes, cookies and all sorts of fall goodies.
It is time for me to start thinking about how I am going to cook the turkey in hopes that it will do justice to all the other things momma decides to prepare at Thanksgiving. The kids are beginning to wonder what Santa might bring, but not counting the days yet.
The Grill is put away (although it might make a brief appearance here or there for smoking a turkey or something) and momma has the crock pot out. She is thumbing through the soup and casserole section of her recipes.
The smell of grilling meat gives way to the smell of brush fires and warm soup.
I can fall asleep in my easy chair (given the chance) without the guilt of feeling I should be out doing something on a "Summer" day.
Fall is my favorite season. I am not sure when that started (long ago it was summer). I think perhaps it is because at 51 I am in the Fall of my life. I'm not done, but I am past the prime. I am enjoying the harvest of my life (my children) and I enjoy the small comforts of the season.

it is definitely here in the mountains too! Love it! I, too, think that naps have their re-birth after the activity of summer.
Enjoy!
Fall, time to settle in and make some inside goals! Cute photos!!
Thanks for coming by. I really do enjoy the summer, but fall is best of all.
