The drop in mercury and colouring leaves signal that fall has arrived. And my favourite thing about the fall is eating all the yummy fall foods... including the best feast of all: Thanksgiving dinner.
Part of my family has rounded up at our chalet in Collingwood and as I type this our 19 lb Turkey is being prepared for a day of baking--and temptation. I will soon go pick our carrots out of our garden--the last harvest. I hope they turned out alright!
Before I do though, I thought I should mentioned what I am thankful for, since this--besides stuffing your face--is part of the whole point of this extended weekend.

- A warm cup of tea with chocolate
- Roller coasters that make you scream like a terrified infant being torn from their mother's grasp (specifically)
- People that help you out when you least expect it
