How time passes...

As you may know it has been a long time since I last put fingers to keyboard and mused about my life. You may be asking why I am writing now, or perhaps you are frustrated at the lack of commitment and will therefore refuse to read out of principle. There is however a clear reasoning for my desire to blog again and that is Julie and Julia; A sugar-coated, charming film about two women passionate about food and writing, perfect for the rainy monday evening that is battling against my bedroom window.

I had a fun, busy weekend spent with my boyfriend and many friends and family, but this evening arrived and I was alone. The rain has been pressing against the glass all day, and although I made it outside for my favourite woodland walk, I have spend most of the day in the confines of the house. I baked bread, and made brownies and enjoyed my Mama's insanely good butternut squash soup for lunch. All in all delicious.

It's only ten to ten and it's dark outside, I suppose that's a sign that autumn is on it's way. Perhaps that's a depressing thought, maybe, but I am a girl of the seasons. I love the excitement and newness of the first buds in spring, and that day when you can finally go without socks, or the first chill of autumn when you know you can soon put on a pair of tights that flatter your legs, and seemingly make the miniskirt once again acceptable!

Today there has been that chill in the air, and I have been homemaking, movie-watching and blogging, and overall it has been thoroughly satisfying.

Cheers to that.
