Fall is in the Air.......

Ok..I'm about to freeze to death and it's only in the 60s. Sixty degrees in March is cause for breaking out the shorts and sunscreen; today I'm resisting socks and a sweater. It's just not right!

Ok, you people...Liz is just itching for a home for those geese I saw leaning up against her garage...Thank goodness she is just as unmotivated as I am these days; hauling them all the way down to my house just isn't in her plan, besides, I've seen them! The shingling is done and weather sealed..next is "fixing" the porch, shoring it up and refitting doors and screening. This is all on the back of the house anyway so now I don't feel quite so bad about what the "mowtheirlawneveryotherdaygardenfanatic" neighbors have to look at. The rotted shingles where the old deck had been were a bit on the eyesore side. Well, maybe a few flamingo may be in order when it's all done.

Whew...the coffee bean supply was getting on the low side; less than 100 pounds, doncha know...I don't know how we slept at night with so low a stash. Hey some of what we had available for roasting was Indonesian stuff...I am still partial to the Central American coffees, myself. Whew...the maillady brought 15 pounds today, maybe now I can sleep. Ya know, I really didn't sleep well last night but I suspect it didn't have anything to do with our coffee supply.

Oh Oh! I realized this morning that with Fall comes the Champlain Valley Fair and with that comes...YES!...Maple Cotton Candy!! I'm soooo excited! Yum..
