It's Approaching...

I love summer.

I love autumn.

I love the late summer transition between the two.

Looking in shops these past couple weeks

I am noticing little details of autumn coming out.

Little squirrel figurines,

bowls of pine cones and acorns.

The rich colours of the season in tablecloths and napkins...

Here are a few of my favourite things of autumn and late summer 

Apples! 

Apple cider, apple pie and biting into a crisp apple.

Have you ever had an apple cider slurpee?

I tried one last fall at the Apple Barn in Abbotsford.

Delish!

Something so cozy about these shoes. 

A slipper combined with a shoe. 

Probably not so good for rainy days

(which are most of the days in both Portland and Vancouver).

But they just scream comfort.

A cozy sweater.

I looooove cozy sweaters.

This cashmere one is guaranteed to be soft,

and isn't bulky.

Love to colour, too.

Cozy leg warmers for chubby baby legs! 

I have a cute pair from Diane in the most perfect autumn colours.

I can't wait until her legs are chubby enough to fit them! 

Looking forward to the return of my favourite Starbucks drink.

Heaven in a cup.

And I've figured out how to make it low(er) cal. 

 Sunflowers!

So beautiful and summer-ish!

If I was that crazy, I'd have another wedding in early September.

On a farm, with sunflowers.
