Warmth

So, I know that I posted that "Autumn Falling" blurb a few days ago, but this fall has actually been very warm so far.  It's been in the 70's (Fahrenheit) all week long, and it is supposed to be for about another week.  Now, I'm not griping- as a matter of fact, I'm pretty happy about it.  The flowers are still blooming, the beach is still usable for sunbathing and swimming purposes, and I can still wear sandals and sundresses.  But, pumpkin flavored/ scented things are appropriate.  It's the best of both worlds.

Here are some phone photographs I've taken lately to chronicle this unusually warm early Autumn.

 Cheers to a few more warmer days before we descend into another winter blizzard-pocalypse.

Milk & Cookies

And Ice Cream Sandwiches!  Wow, it was really hot on the day that I took this photograph, and ice cream sandwiches sounded like the best idea ever to my brain.  My waistline and wallet thought otherwise, however, and I went without.  I did not go without a photograph of this excellent chalkboard street sign though.  That would have not been okay.  I love chalkboard ads- they are so endearing in so many ways.  A coffee shop with the choices written on a chalkboard has so much more character than one with everthing just typed out.  It seems so French to me, I'm not sure why, but I have it in my mind that the French use chalk boards a lot more than we do.  Maybe they just have nicer handwriting on their chalkboards.  I don't know. I like these ones that I saw in the East Village.
