crisp, cloudy, golden sunday morning

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, what i look forward to about autumn.

cinnamon.
apples. (and cinnamon combined!)
cold, dry air with the smell of fireplaces warming up cold homes.
pumpkin everything.
did i mention pumpkin everything?
soft, comfy sweaters.
long underwear. (yyyyuuuuuuuummmm to my body)
scarves and woolly hats.
Charlie Brown and The Great Pumpkin
A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving
baking cookies.
just baking!
children wearing so many layers that they look like marshmallows with feet.
gloves! i love gloves!
chapstick. yay for this invention and the serenity it brings to me.
wool, knee-high socks. (we're besties)
arroz con leche en la manana. (mmmmmmmmm...)
homemade artichoke heart dip. fuck ya! (maybe i should make some tomorrow...) :)
hot soup. hot, hot, hot, hot soup. in buckets.
hot pots of tea!
blowing kisses at leaves as they fall off the trees. (try it, it's glorious)
watching squirrels scamper around with their stuffed cheeks.
meringue on pie. lemon meringue pie.
PIE!
mmmmmmmmmmmm, pie.
watching my husband watching football. :)
seeing my breath float in a haze around my face. freaking awesome. every time.
exhaling extra slow in order to maximize the steamy goodness in the air.
cold cheeks glowing red when i walk in a heated room.
dogs in sweaters. ( i know, but i heart it)
everyone's nipples poking through their tops. (it's kind of hilarious)
how everyone decides to wear brown, purple, and orange for some reason? :)
burrowing under heavy blankets whenever possible.
pretending to hibernate in said blankets.

i love autumn.

gaaaaaaaaah wednesday

Can anybody tell me what happens when a human dies?

Only those whom have died and returned may apply.


Until I find out, I'll be meandering about the face of the Earth.


Thanks.

bathroom humor friday

i shared the greatest idea with my husband this week.

"We're going to do something."

"What?"

"The next time either of us poops, I am going to wipe your butt and you are going to wipe my butt- to prepare us for when we get really old and have to do it for real."

"No."

"I'm wiping your ass."

[husband walks out of room]

I think he'll catch on.
