The weather has now turned wet and cold
with a chance even of some snow flakes.
Many of the trees are bare,
though some still hold on to their colorful
leaves, a branch of which I brought in from my
walk today to prop on the mantel.
The woodstove is now lit by late afternoon
to keep us cozy as darkness falls a bit
earlier each day.
A chicken {homegrown} has been simmering
in the pot this afternoon ~~
chicken & gravy over biscuits for dinner tonight,
with some butternut squash from our garden.
A perfect fall meal.
