A day in late August

dew worms everywhere
sunlight peeking through the windows
cool, breezy afternoon
a simmering sauce on the stove filled with fresh herbs from our garden
a perfect cup of coffee warms my hands
baseball game on the television
my to-do list has all been checked off
husbands are like comfort food most of the time
a quiet telephone
open windows and blowing curtains please me
a baby awakens from his nap
I am at home on a Sunday afternoon with my family.

Oh! How cozy! Sounds to me like you are starting to think of fall! The most coziest season of all! You must come for a fall visit, some hiking to see the leaves apple cider, hot coffee, and soups!
