Fall Obsession

I don't know if you've noticed, but the past week has brought PERFECT weather. Not too hot, not too cold sort of a thing. My favorite season is fall, for countless reasons. For one, I'm a slightly (slightly, meaning deeply) in love with all things thermal. I have 4 thermal shirts, thermal pants, and 2 thermal sweatshirts. If it were socially acceptable, I would wear a combination of these items, every single day...for the rest of my life. Since it's not, I vask in the opportunity to sport the thermalwear whenever I possibly can. Thus, this weather is again, perfect.

If I were at home, there would also be one other huge contributor to my fall obsession. Edward's Apple Orchard is hard to describe in words. In sights, the orchard is pumpkins and apples and doughnuts, oh my! In smells, it's a sweet concontion of cider, warm fudge, and squash. I've tried to describe to my friends here at school just what they're mising, but noone ever seems to understand. But, when I call my best friends from home around this time, all we talk about it how much we miss the apple orchard. I'll admit, we sound like the stereotypical midwesterners who have nothing better to do than go pick pumpkins and take pictures on tractors. But, I'm okay with that. I'll even own up to that fact that, just today, I received a package from home that had nothing in it but 3 vacuum-sealed blocks of Edward's famous peanut butter and chocolate fudge. I. Am. Obsessed.

Great, now I really want to go home for Fall Break...good thing I can't.
