the first day

90 degree day after 90 degree day….

there was finally a bit of fall in the air this morning. i think i’m ready. as much as i’ve loved my little get-aways to the chicago lakefront this summer on saturday and sunday afternoons to sit and read at the beach, i may be ready for apples, flannel sheets, campfires, snuggling in and some new fall season TV shows.

i wore a wrap-around-your-neck-twice scarf today. gotta love scarf weather. you know, not cold enough for a coat but just right for a scarf, sweater or maybe a jacket.

speaking of sweaters…my “juliet sweater”…you know the one that stopped me in my tracks. she was done in under 2 weeks. i told you i HAD to have her. and if this weather continues it looks like i’ll be able to wear that sweater in the next few days.

 good thing i picked up some buttons for her yesterday. and good thing she only needs 2…they were $5.25 each. but they’re perfect for her and you know how those heroines can be….so demanding. right up to their dramatic FINISH!!!
