G.E. said it best...

"Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns!" George Eliot

Tuesday is the first day of fall and I absolutely cannot wait!

I've been tiding my impatience with some fall baking (pumpkin muffins and pumpkin cake) and burning the Bath & Body works The Perfect Autumn Leaves fragrance oil as soon as I get home. The sweet smell is soothing and even if the Dallas heat is still blazing outside, I can close my eyes and make believe the cool temps are just outside my window.
