The pleasures of fall

It is definitely feeling like fall around here... it was drizzling this morning, and the sky was thick and low, with dark clouds running through like a piece of marble. Of all seasons, fall is my favorite (well, maybe after spring?) Fall is for pumpkin pie, golden leaves, and stripped stockings and for cozying up, like a cat, in a comfy couch...

Fall is for sipping hot chocolate and for wearing your favority warm and cozy socks and fun PJs, and it is also for hugging and cuddling by a soft furry friend, even when you don’t know his name or know where he’d come from...

It is also time to winterize my front porch... I surely will miss all the lovely greenery that’s been in my front porch since early spring.

My potted ferns would not survive our harsh winter if I leave them out here…

I'd have to find a place for them before the wind comes puffing by, blowing leafs and all sort of things off towards the sky...

Where do you think I should put them?

Fall is such a wonderful time of year! Leaves are turning vibrant colors. Harvests are being gathered. The weather is getting cooler... What do you like and enjoy doing during the lovely October days? I love all the shiny afternoons so full of birds....

Enjoy each day!

Hi Cielo,

Oh I love the fall too. Perfect for cozying up like you said. Hot soups, hot cocoa, comfort foods are perfect for this kind of weather. We went to a flea market today. Beautiful fall day, crisp, cool air, beautiful fall leaves blowing in the wind. Your furry friend is so pretty. He/she looks perfectly at home cudding with you.
Your ferns are lovely. I don't have anywhere to put a big plant like that indoors. Is your living room or bedroom big enough? ?They would look lovely most anywhere indoors. :)

I stopped by your blog to verify that you were still hosting your Friday "theme day".

In case you aren't sure why I would do that, please first go here: http://thehousethatlovebuilt.xanga.com/712911712/today--/

and then read this one:

From what I could see, you are no longer hosting yours. Are my findings correct? Either way, PLEASE let me know via: pink bunnies (at) sbc global (dot) net

THANKS!!!
Cheryl B.

p.s. - your porch does look ever so inviting! Spring will bring the pleasure of it back once again.

I love fall too; we sort of missed it this year as it went straight to winter. Your ferns are beautiful but I love the plump kitty cat. Welsome fall!

Dear Cielo....I love your new friend....he is just so handsome.....

I love October for its softness and for the shadows that fall across my lawn......

To see migrating birds arrive....in huge flocks....coming to my gardens to eat the berries from my hedgerows......

Each month holds a special quality, all of its own. I am grateful that I have time to see the changes.......

This is a beautiful post Cielo. I too love the fall ♥ I hope you have a beautiful and blessed week.

You have such a charming porch. Saying goodbye to all of it when it looks so lovely is hard to do! Fall is always beautiful though with the changing colors, the sky a different blue, and every creature hustling along trying to prepare for winter. I don't think I could live somewhere else without seeing the seasonal change!!

hello,
thanks for coming to my blog.
You asked about the collages. I use a program called Photoscape. It is freeware and you can download it from the internet. It does lots more than just collages.
Best wishes, Andrea

you should have a magical fairy greenhouse built for all of your treasures to winter in. Would save you so much in the spring to not have to re-purchase all these items. Do you think you can sell that to Hubby? Have a wonderful day.
