Nearly Halloween!

Hi all, I am hoping for a dry, slightly chilly night tomorrow for Halloween - nice to be outside under the moon with something comforting to eat whilst I think about the stories, legends and myths that go hand in hand with Samhain. You can keep your pumpkins and trick or treating - that's not it for me, spirits, ancestors and that slightly spooked feeling is what its all about!
Have fun folks.

Dark evenings, dark mornings!

Autumn is well and truly with us it would seem, last night, it was pretty much dark at 7pm, and this morning it doesn't look like it will get properly light all day. It is no secret to those who know me that I quite like this though. I walked into the supermarket last night and saw piles of pumpkins, and I immediately thought of warm soup, halloween, cosy jumpers and bonfires...all favourites!
So, I think it may be time to put the summer clothes away, dig out the winter woolies and settle into the season, enjoy everyone!
