Cider Mills, Pumpkin Doughnuts and Indian Corn

What says Fall to me?

Cider Mills (going next week), Pumpkin Doughnuts (hoping my parents bring me one) and Indian Corn (check).


That is one thing I love about seasonal living - it helps me to focus.

You can only drink fresh cider now.
You can only buy Indian corn now.
You can only press Maple leaves now.

I have been thinking about how tricky it is to fit the bounty of each season into just 3 months!

Which makes everything all the more precious.
I have a lot to enjoy before the snow flies!

What is on your Fall "must do" list?

Indian Corn

A simple bundle of Indian corn can look so pretty tied to the front door in the Fall. I think it's a nice touch before the "ghost & goblins" of Halloween take over. There are so many beautiful varieties of Indian corn - I thought you'd like to see a poster of the "Indian Corns of America" here.

Once I was lucky enough to find a wreath made of Indian corn at the farmer's market. So cute! Until I stored it in the garage and a pint-sized friend ate every kernel over the winter. Alas, some things aren't meant to last.
