October Is Here!!!

hard to believe that's it's already October, month of pumpkins, cider and Halloween candy! It's also my birthday month (I share a birthday with the great Early Romantic poet and critic, Samuel Taylor Coleridge - October 21st also Trafalgar Day in Britain) so I'm going to be indulging in my faves.

The best part about this month is it;s kind of like fall's version of July. The weather is still beach worthy. The farms are brimming with crops. The sky is still a bright blue while the air is still warm during the day. I plan to make the mos t of this month with beach picnics, on the road trips to new eateries and seeing what the farms of South Jersey offer. Hopefully I'll pick up some good , sturdy pumpkins along with trying some fresh apple cider.

This is my month. As a dedicated foodie I'm going to enjoy it - birthday cake and all!!!
