Even tho’ it’s about 80 degrees outside right now… 
this morning there was a chill in the air…
getting a little nippy!
and right about sundown, things cool off very quickly.
Autumn is approaching – The Autumnal Equinox is just around the corner! (September 22)
Gets me into the ‘baking‘ frame of mind.
Can’t wait to put something tasty in the oven – smelling the Cinnamon and other spices wafting through the air.
