That Time

It's pumpkin time and everyone knows it. My roommates and I spent our weekend at the pumpkin patch and carved pumpkins on our living room floor. When we finished, we lined our front steps with four big jack o'lanterns and are now in the process of costume planning. Oh, it's officially that time of year where we wake up to dustings of snow and half-eaten-by-deer-pumpkins and make big pots of soup on the stove specifically for leftovers. It's cool and windy and leafy and good.

One More Thing...

It's the last time. I promise, we won't post pictures like this for a while. They're a little over the top, I know. But I just couldn't help it. I liked these ones too much.

Just Bits

Just a few things that I've been up to...
     -I made some seriously tasty pumpkin cinnamon rolls this last weekend with friends.
     -I've been trying to eat more vegetables- roasted some broccoli with olive oil and salt for lunch.
     -My final successful attempt at a watercolor for Nathaniel. (You don't want to see my first two tries.)

Our Fourth

Today, we are celebrating our fourth ACCD (Annual Celebration of Continued Dating). Amidst the studying for Spanish and physics, we're hoping to go out to dinner at some point. It's been a pretty rockin' four years. We won't write much however, because honestly we can't remember most of it. We hear from our friends that it was a blast, though. And by this time next year, we'll surely have been dating for at least a decade.

Cold Enough

We get out of bed these mornings and our hats and mittens go on. We fold laundry from the dryer to warm our hands. The mornings are sub-30's and we're not used to it yet, still content in our summer bodies and not quite ready to adjust. But at least the skies are blue and clear and holiday feelings are hovering.

I received this poetry anthology from a creative writing instructor I had last semester. I think it will make for good snuggled-up-in-my-warm-bed reading material.
