Autumn in Southern California !
Wow, we have had cool days for 3 days in a row, with a little bit of mist for rain, and the feeling of a tiny bit of crispness in the air. People seem to have notices this new phenomenon-- they aren't rushing about at break neck speed, and sometimes briefly smile at each other in the shops. Southern California is beginning to discover some of the joys of fall. Many folks are decorating for Halloween, and there are more frequent smells of baking in the air. Fall always brought the smells of cinamon and cloves in our house as my mother used to start baking batches of her cinnamon walnut cookies. I should try making a batch in November before I go to Florida to visit my sister and dad. I used to walk around back East in the park to look at the coloured leaves-- glorious explosions of orange and crimson! That's one the the things that kept in interested in photography-- funny but most of the early photos were so muddy in colour, and fuzzy in focus!

Recently , I discovered Boba! They can make a green tea drink and put these large pearls of tapioca in the beverage-- they are sweet and chewy . I had one for breakfast today, and it sure beats the fast food type of breakfast (I usually have to get on the road by 5:30 or so, and never have time to make breakfast) I got some biscotti too, but it was not what I know as biscotti, more like Italian bread toast. Oh , well it still made for a nice breakfast.

Well, I will add a little photo to celebrate the fall: a ripe pomagranate.. consider this just a fancy apple!






I hope everyone is high and dry after Wilma blasted through, and now in the company of Alpha is travelling the coast! Warm spiced chai and biscotti for good friends.
