Cold is a four letter word.

I think it's safe to say that I've been in denial about summer being over for pretty much the whole fall season.  I've tried to squeeze in many outdoor activities... put off taking out my box of warm clothing... and in a final effort to dig my heals in the ground I made a giant bowl of pasta salad today. A summer party staple as far as I'm concerned. But alas it is dare I say it...COLD. And tomorrow I will be reorganizing the closet. Since next week I'll be packing for a trip even further north I better have appropriate clothing to pack. So out will come the sweaters and all that other stuff and away goes my bright array of tanks and cute sun dresses and beautiful sandals... I'm feeling weepy already.  I did have a lovely fall which will be over very shortly and while I am a fan of many snow related activities... I'm still trying to figure out a way to make snow without it being so cold out! HAHAHA.  On a brighter note... Hot chocolate was on sale at the market... yeah I stocked up.
