Temps in our area nearly hit 90 on Saturday. I spent the day taking the big tree out of my yard.

Yesterday topped out at 55, but that was at 1am. Things just dropped from there with the evening in the crisp 40s.

We had the furnace kick in yesterday. I love that smell you get around the house when the furnace kicks in early in the season. All the dust that has settled in the system during the summer heats up. I can’t call it a “good” smell, but it is certainly a “cozy” smell.

Of course when the weather gets cold, the comfort food warms up.

 Meatloaf + Potatoes + Steamed Veggies + Apple Crisp + a couple logs in the fireplace=a nice night!
