October is

 

A dark pedicure. Reading all the library books. Mother Florence in DC. An old friend getting married. YAS Bookcon. Cooking in. The Booksmith with good friends. A plum torte. A Halloween costume for Avon. Pumpkins next to the fireplace. Still puzzling. Family visiting. A big revision. All the podcasts all the time. The occasional hot chocolate. A cozy fleece. Chilly mornings. Trying to drink more water. Bringing the plants inside.
