The Last of the Summer Colors


Summer is officially on its last limb and for many of us, fall has already begun to set in.

Mother Nature beckons us to the season of harvest, where we leave the bright colors behind and embrace the deep, earthy tones of fall. Cooler temperatures threaten the world's garden with frost and we scurry to collect the last edible remnants from our own vegetable plots. Pumpkins will soon line the steps of our front porches and soup will be a welcomed commodity. As we watch the steam rise from sweat-stained jerseys, an extra coat and blanket are necessary to enjoy a local high school football game. No matter how slow we wish time would travel, it continues to pass us by faster than we can even imagine.

Take some time out today and enjoy any remaining signs of summer in your life. Before we know it, the major color to penetrate our eyes will be this one...



I hope to be back tomorrow with yet another food related entry! Til' then!
