A season of contradictions

Tomorrow's the first "official" day of fall, though it's been feeling a little fall-ish around here for a few weeks now.

Take, fr'instance, yesterday...it was cool and rainy...a perfect day to whip up a pot of chili. So I did. In fact, last night I fired up our faux woodburner to take the chill off...and for a little ambiance.



'Course today, out on the deck, it's a different story...



We're just now harvesting tons of luscious tomatoes from our little garden spot. In fact, we still have quite a few blooms...if the weather holds, we might have fresh tomatoes up through October.

Weird, weird weather. Makes me sorta apprehensive about this winter.
