I’ve always loved farmer’s markets—so much so that I spent four years of weekends working for one! While I called it a “summer job,” the autumn harvest season is when the markets really kick into gear. The corn is high, the pumpkin patches are filling with giant orange globes, and the apples (my favorite fruit!) […]
For a short moment this morning the weather was crisp, dry and clear, and I was transported to an autumn path with leaves crunching under my feet as I hugged a hot pumpkin spice latte close. Of course, this fleeting daydream was short lived when I realized my hair was still wet and I needed […]

There’s no answer key, so everyone who searches will find their own set of three words to describe their knitting personality. There’s no answer key to […]
Autumn ushers in rich variations of red, orange, yellow, and purple. Violets, burnt orange, marigold, and burgundy begin popping along the trees, bushes, and decor. I’m a huge fan of color, but fall colors tend to be my favorite. To me they’re like dark chocolate, rich and delightful. While I tend to lean towards the […]
