finding inspiration in late season goods today...persimmon and pomegranate...nuts and winter greens.
i don't think i've stopped much to notice how really lovely this time of the year is...i'm always rushing it along. but really there is a sweet quietness about it...a calm before holidays rush.
i've started a smidgen of decorating for christmas...and have been listening to more than a smidgen of christmas music. (which i swore to myself, and matt, that i wouldn't do so early this year). i blame the frosty mornings for all of that...
It's impossible to not listen to holiday music when all of the stores are playing it and its so nice and chilly out side!

One of my favorite things about your posts are your occasional post titles that reference Avett Brothers songs. My favorite band, and this always makes me smile. Unless I am way off and it's just a total coincidence! ha.
ReplyDeleteLovely, lovely photographs, as always. The kind of colors that make me want to hold onto fall, although Christmas is all that's on my mind these days.
I don't read blogs for months, then when I do, I come across yours and stay on your blog for ages reading all your older posts and catching up on how your family is. Sounds very weird but I always feel happier after reading your blog!

ReplyDeleteThanks for making my day more beautiful.
you can never have too many holiday tunes. they seem to disappear too soon after christmas is over :)
ReplyDeleteI've been reading your blog for a long time now, and I just have to say that you are so incredibly talented. Your photos always bring a smile to my face. I love that they are just little snippets of life. It is so inspiring. xo

you're right, this time of the year does get rushed. i wish it wouldn't. it is special, and magical and beautiful. the colors, the food, and the history. poor november. i think i'll embrace this last week ;)
ReplyDeletehaha, I've been listening to a bit of christmas music while cree is at school. :) You're not alone!
ReplyDeleteChristmas music is cozy music. I've been a little sheepish about listening to my Christmas records this week, but I'm glad to read that a number of people are cranking the cozy tunes too! Sheepish no more.
ReplyDelete"sweet quietness..." that's a beautiful phrase. and oh so true.

persimmon and pomegranate! so typical for my country (Georgia) . . . they make the season even more beautiful. love the color coordination of your outfit.
ReplyDeleteI can't blame you at all for popping in the Christmas soundtrack so early! You're definitely not the only one that's looking forward to the festive season, nor the only one that tends to rush through the quiet that comes before. Lovely photos, as always!
ReplyDeleteno shame! i've been in the christmas spirit for awhile now! i was over halloween before it even started and wanted to get a move on to christmas. it really is such a magical time of year. ^__^
ReplyDeleteI can't resist doing Christmas things already. It is just that wonderful feeling in the air.
ReplyDeleteI love your photographs - very inspiring.
