I sit in the cold arena, the cold air nipping at my skin. I've pulled out my fleece and my Uggs. It’s that time again. Time for Hockey, time for soccer. It’s time for apples and everything "appley" you can think of: pies, tarts, muffins, stuffing, apple sauce, crisp, dumplings, donuts, cider, and even wine. It’s time for pumpkins and carving. It’s time for football. It’s time for Crockpot meals and all the comfort foods you can think of.
It’s time for leaf piles and jumping. It’s time for late afternoon fires and an ice cold beer. It’s time for trick or treating and making scarecrows. It’s time for the geese to fly south with that beautiful V. It’s time for wood stoves and movies. It’s time for family. It's time for board games and Pictionary.
It’s time for the colors; scarlet red, burnt orange, vibrant yellow, and of course some ever green and brown for good measure. It’s time for bright blue skies with soft winds. It's time for Halloween and Thanksgiving. It's time to celebrate everything that is special to us and our families.
It’s my time… My favorite time… It’s time to slow down from summer, enjoy the Harvest and take part in fall. It’s my most favorite time of all… Fall. I wouldn't want to spend it anywhere else except here in New England where fall is at it’s best.
