September
Welcome to Tuesday 4 where we honor the memory and legacy
of our dear friend Toni Taddeo who started the concept of Tuesday
4 years ago. Hosted by Annie!
Since this week is the first week in September and autumn is on
the way, lets discuss that topic, okay?
1.What memories does September bring back to you of school,
autumn, songs, movies? Would you share with us? I get excited
in September because I love fall. ...leaves, cooler days, picnics,
mountain rides, and of course, I loved the beginning of each new
school year...getting to know my new students!
of summer and beginning of autumn. Which do you enjoy more,
summer or autumn and why?Summer is not my favorite season
because of the heat and humidity, I used to love the great outdoors
but now because of the heat, fear of skin cancer, ticks, mosquitoes,
etc, I rarely spent much time out doors. Yet, autumn speaks the
promise of lovely evenings on the porch, sweaters, socks with jeans,
more comfy foods at family dinners!
3.Have you ever gone apple or pumpkin picking or gone into a corn
maze? What was that like? We used to take our students to pick a
pumpkin, so fun to watch their excitement.I’ve been apple pickin’
lots of times. Not as much fun as I get older. But it is a check off
on an autumnal list of must-dos!
4.Are fall weekends different for you than summer weekends?
What do you enjoy in autumn?I have wonderful memories of autumnwith my family growing up ... dad loved to cook outside. He loved to
take us up on the BlueRidge Parkway and cook breakfast one
one of their stone barbecue pits. We’d take an iron griddle to fry up
eggs, bacon and even toast. Mom made the coffee using water we
brought along with us in a simple percolator we used on top of the
stove at home. It was so much fun, and usually a couple of other
families went withus. Then we’d go hiking or stone jumping in the
creek! My husband is not so adventurous so those days are lost to
me, but we do love to take rides up in the mountains to enjoy the
foliage and we might even. take a picnic!
I love the change of the leaves. I hope we have a pretty fall.
ReplyDeleteIsn't meeting the kids the best? The field trips are canceled this year here. So sad. Loved your answers! Have a nice Tuesday!

ReplyDeleteHave a great Tuesday my friend.
I enjoyed reading about your memories! The food on the grill looks so good! We were in Lake Tahoe and Yosemite last fall and it was beautiful. I am a country girl at heart living in the city!
ReplyDeleteI think so many love autumn. very popular. I never realized as a kid that teachers would be excited to meet us. I know we kids were nervous about what teacher we would get. Thanks for joining in.
ReplyDeletePoof, my comment went up in flames, grin...anyways...I was saying I love your new fall background here. I always enjoy your answers. Have a great day friend.
