Lately 3.3.14

Lately I have been favoring breakfast.

I've been sorting through old memories.

I've been learning (too gradually), I never thought I'd want homework but I do.

I've injected reminders of loved ones into daily life.

I've torn beautiful dresses and created things I never thought I would.

I've eaten very good pie.

And been awed and inspired by a little girl, her paper dresses and bold spirit.  Talk about God showing me the beauty and strength in softness.

More to come, that's always the good news. :)

Inspiration: A Touch of Autumn

Arriving home from my week away, I've realized a bit begrudgingly that my mind has started to drift towards Autumn. It's funny that only a few weeks ago a friend bubbled to me about Fall and how ready for it she was, and I couldn't agree. Usually Summer is a season I cling to, until the last fireflies are gone and the air chills. Even as the leaves begin to turn each year, I grasp at the neon sunsets and balmy breezes. 

But today I tried sweater tights on just to see how they felt again. Weird. 

These are some Autumnal things that have me anticipating the coming season lately:

This sweater pattern in every color.  Now if only I could knit more than just a scarf...

This girl's plum-ish locks.

Teagan White and her heart warming artwork (as usual).

The thought of a train journey with one of these.

Though I'll return to Summer for the moment, August already has me adding Fall-ish touches to what I wear and do.  I drank a hot latte this morning and wore my handmade leather booties. That reminds me of this post a couple years ago, mostly summer with a cozy autumnal touch.

Is Fall inspiring you yet?
