I like a mug of bean soup for lunch on a cool cloudy autumn day. I use the classic Senate Navy Bean Soup recipe, and add carrots for extra color and veggie-ness. This soup freezes well, so I tucked a couple of containers into the freezer this week to enjoy later. I do a lot of seasonal cooking, and I'm pleased to be circling around into my autumn menus/recipes.

I like Gordon Lightfoot's wonderful music -- let's listen to Canadian Railroad Trilogy today :) We've seen Gordon Lightfoot in concert a number of times through the years -- his music always strikes a wistful note in my heart. Many decades ago, we were commuting regularly between Chicago and Minneapolis. Lightfoot's music was always with us as we drove back and forth through the Wisconsin northwoods.

I like this new-to-me soap aroma: Acorn Spice. The scent is warm and woodsy, very autumny!

I like that the new fall season has begun on nighttime TV. I've been soooo tired of the endless dismal droning of news/current events all summer. I'm ready for light-hearted entertainment while I do handwork
in the evening!

I like this xeriscape garden down at the end of my road.
It makes me smile each time I drive past it.
