There is something absolutely magical about the low, slanting golden light that Autumn brings.â¨ð

"This time of year is the perfect blend of daydream and reality, with amazing weather, a beautiful quiet, and soul-calming breezes which lead the way to the comforting slow-down of the year. IÂ seem to breathe more fully in October than any other month"

Afternoons in our household.â¤ï¸

Just a magical, sunlit October day. Spent our Sunday afternoon feeding the ducks and soaking in the Autumn colours & sunshine.ðâ¨ð

Saturday thus far: Had a hearty breakfast. Watched old episodes of Taarak Mehta (don't judge, I love it!) Deep cleaned some parts of the house. Visited the farmer's market. Sorted all the greens and veggies. Had a hearty lunch. Did some laundry. And that's about it. In the evening we'll probably go for a walk depending on the weather and then make pizzas for dinner (Saturday rituals, remember?). Nothing fancy, but days like this are sweet. Days like this are good for the soul. ð

Also, look at my green blessing for the week. So fresh. I almost never let the carrot and beetroot greens go waste. I made a simple bhaji with the beetroot greens today. And I'll be adding carrot greens to my besan chila, adai etc. that I will be making in the coming week.ð¿

How has your Saturday been? ð

Strawberry preserve cookies ðª I'm on a baking spree. And I just have the weather to blame for it.ð To the cookie dough I added some fresh lemon zest and juice - and I feel that made the cookies so delicious.

Sharing some lines I read recently -

"As the years pass, I am coming more and more to understand that it is the common, everyday blessings of our common everyday lives for which we should be particularly grateful. They are the things that fill our lives with comfort and our hearts with gladness -- just the pure air to breathe and the strength to breath it; just warmth and shelter and home folks; just plain food that gives us strength; the bright sunshine on a cold day; and a cool breeze when the day is warm."

I like reading home decor books - especially french and victorian styles. The two styles are classic in my opinion. Way too many mental notes made whilst reading these books - some ideas may not see the light of the day probably until our retirement but that doesn't stop me from dreaming and making notes. Anyone like me? ð¥°
