Finally my favorite time of the year is here. I love autumn, love autumn winds, chilly air and early autumn evenings. There is this special sense in the air what makes me feel so cozy and I have this warm feeling in my heart. Usually this is time when my family prepare all winter food stock, so we can taste summer when it is only snow all over the fields and roads. Then we remember every summers adventures, summer sun and we can long for next summer again. (more…)
It’s middle of week and sadly it is my last day off this week. Yesterday I got this painful realization that it is end of August and summer is over even before it started. So before I went to bed I was determined that I will spend this August day as good as possible. And with surprise to myself, I woke up and I still had this thought in my head (which never happen with me before). So, it is only a bit after noon and I have done much more than in entire month, because it has been so stressful and tiring month.. And now my determination makes me so happy and proud of my self.

The most important feeling is belonging to someone or something. For me it is feeling of home, safety and love. I’m person who feel this connection through seasons differently. I feel summers’ warm sun and air and it reminds me sun reflections on kitchen cealing when I saw them first as a kid and I that that tiny rabbits have visisted me and want to play with.
Summer is full of light colours and sweet air. It is still summer time but unfortunately here in Middle of England it is autumn in full pride. Breezey and chilly air with barely warm evenings and all I want is just to put my cardigan on, put warm socks and make cup of tea to warm up. So, I’m turning my back to all fresh and tasty summer dishes and all I have in my mind is warm colour autumn vegies and stew. And all these delicious cookies and cakes what we having with evening tea. I will open this season, which is my favorite time of year, with delicious Raisins and almond fruit cake. (more…)
