it's october!
Oct. 1st, 2012 11:44 amspent the weekend in vermont. i think i am getting happier with where i am in life on a regular basis, because upon getting home i didn't immediately feel angry and gypped out of life that i have to spend it here instead of in vermont. nope.
the time there was nice and wonderful. such pretty trees! i hope i took enough photos. i wish it hadn't fogged so much though - rain and mist the whole weekend. still, i got some awesome tea, great food that we made/tasted, energizing hike, etc. kinda want to go back in winter and go skiing or something (if we can afford it).
anyway, i need to start tasting the teas around here. there aren't any tea rooms in new haven but there are some coffee/tea cafes with pretty decent teas. i should really taste as many as i could - wishing i was actually downtown more! parking is a bitch. we live just far enough that walking is a pain but driving/parking is also a pain. really should just suck it up and bike :|
so regarding my list of fall stuff... i made a ton of pumpkin chai, most of it is iced now. i made pumpkin bread and ate it all :9 havent gone apple picking yet but i did get some apples. still waiting for the leaves to REALLY start changing all the way - though every day there's more and more yellow/orange. probably gonna start decorating for halloween (yes, more than a week before) and prepping for furfright. i already know what i want to be for halloween (death!) and i have most of the clothes already so it's mostly just getting accessories. i got some b-day money so i think i'm gonna get a sweater & some cute lace up brown boots.
so yeah have this photoset of autumn awesomeness i found
oh! i forgot to mention my mom got a cake for a late-birthday present. it wasss pumpkin cake! haha awesome. so that was fitting!
