Peter was on my blog today and noticed there are quite a few photos of Fallon.  Didn't mean to leave you out sweetie.  I'll take this time to toot your horncongrats on getting your license!  (NJ drivers beware – the silver van with the large heartagram sticker on the back may not be driven by just me anymore).  How did our little Peter become a driving senior?  We are so proud of you!

I couldn't believe it – today was our first snow!  Yesterday I cut a dozen roses from my garden and now there is snow on the pumpkin.  With such a blustery storm outside I felt all domestic and warm inside and actually made some pumpkin bread thanks to Pillsbury, and grabbed some Pumpkin Spice coffee from the corner shop ($1.39!).  Then UPS drove up with a parcel which included a juicy new magazine.  You'll need to get this one.  Spectacular!  (thanks Jenny)

    It is so freaky to see snow in your photos when it’s still in the 90’s here!
    I have a son who is a driving senior also- I can’t believe how much they grow. Seems like not so long ago he was my darling baby!
    Now he’s a teen- ‘nuf said!

    Congrats to your son ! That is a beautiful photo of him ! Good job, Mom, giving the kiddos equal time in the spot light !;-)
    I am working on letting the seasons influence me in a good way. I think I am behind about three weeks or so though. I am finally really into sights, smells, tastes and sounds of Fall and then they announced snow flurries up here in NH too ! Seems mighty early to be but whatever ! I am enjoying the cozy evenings with one pot meals like chili in the stove, candles lit (in the jack-o-lanterns too until Friday) and my wooly afghan and my dog’s head on my lap.
    To every thing, there is a season…right ?
    Cheers, cool Lady !

    You have an ADORABLE boy!
    I feel new magazines in the air too! John and I waiting till Nov.1st to go do our usual Borders run. The Artful Blogger is due then. I know we could get subscriptions but we love to go to the book store and hang out all evening and looks at and brouse through the books. oh yes and visit with the people there. Silly and expensive, I know…but it’s a great evening out and if I pay $50.00 for magazines and fun then it’s a good thing! Movies cost that moch for the 2 of us. Actually more if we get food! 🙂
    Have a great hair day! Becci

    Congratulations Peter! Having sons myself, I know that getting that license is a very big deal for this extremely handsome young man. Snow already…yikes! But such a pretty post. And thanks for a sneak peek at that much anticipated new mag. xoxo

    “Where Women Create” arrived on my doorstep yesterday, on a wet and grey day, just perfect for your recipe of hot tea and spicy cake!
    What a hansome young man Peter is! Congratulation to you, Peter, with your driving license!

    Great pics! Unfortunately we didnt get the snow 🙁 My sister lives by Clinton, and she has not had power for 2 days!!! Congrads to Peter on his license..my older one just got his in April, and the younger one got his permit over the summer…I am driving the older one crazy, i make him call me before and after he is leaving anywhere lol…he is hoping this wears off real soon. I cant wait to see “where women create”…it took me 3 years to get my own space…now i dont know what to do with it!

    Congratulations to Peter! That NJ Drivers exam isn’t easy. You made me laugh when you called to say,”It’s snowing outside???” It was beautiful, wasn’t it?
