Look through any window...

... what do you see?

I see beautiful autumn colored leaves....


New England puts on a spectacular show during the fall season...


The air is so crisp and cool...

I feel I have no right to complain about the fact that it's too cold to eat suppers on the deck anymore when I'm surrounded by such beauty...

Fallen leaves cover every square inch of our yard right now... A not so subtle reminder of all the raking that needs to be done before Old Man Winter arrives...

And the leaves are getting sparser with every passing day... I'm afraid one good rain or windstorm is going to empty all branches of any remaining color... Once winter arrives, I think I would like to hibernate until the warm spring sun beckons to me! (Can anyone tell that I am not a big fan of winter??)...

Autumn/Halloween Giveaway!

Look who's smiling, because giveaways always make people (and jack-o-lanterns) smile!!!


Since I totally missed my 100th post giveaway (by a long shot), I'm going to do an autumn/Halloween giveaway instead!


"Can I enter the giveaway?" asks the little black kitty...

No, little black kitty... You can't enter because you are part of the giveaway!


"Then who can enter?" asks the jeweled Indian corn...

Why anybody who leaves a comment on this particular post, little Indian corn... (And be sure to leave an e-mail if your comment doesn't link back to a blog so that I'll be able to notify you if you win!!)


And the little autumn leaf and acorn want to remind you that, "October will be here before you know it!!" ... therefore, a winner will be chosen at midnight on Wednesday, October 1st (yes, I am a night owl!) But that's only a few days from now, so be sure to leave a comment soon! And if you mention my Autumn/Halloween giveaway on your blog, please let me know and your name will be entered twice!!


"So what exactly does the giveaway winner get?"


Well, the winner will receive all of you!! 1) The outdoor Halloween mat [just like the one on my blog banner]; 2) the assortment of Indian corn; and 3) the autumn leaf/acorn dishtowel...

Happy fall - Happy autumn - and Happy Halloween to everyone!!
