Simple Pleasure of the Week: To Celebrate the Season
I love it when the seasons begin to change. I've been noticing different scents in the air, leaves turning golden and red, fall vegetables and fruits coming into the markets, and weather shifting in subtle ways. This is a time I enjoy creating my own transitions to celebrate the seasonal shift. I do this with food and decor among other traditions. I switch to cooking hot soups, and heartier casseroles. Sweater weather also brings a color change to my wardrobe. Autumnal colors replace the light neutrals in my home and on my body. I'm drawn to the scents that mimic what attracts me outside, pumpkin candles and spiced tea suddenly are just the thing to create a mood. Noticing and celebrating each season is a simple pleasure.
