the autumnal equinox

It is the first day of autumn (with a full moon no less!), but summer is hanging on here in Washington. Those cool fall breezes have yet to win out over the heat and humidity. Perhaps this weekend? I hope so. . . the gentleman and I plan to mark the change of seasons with wild mushroom risotto. That calls for crisp air and a robust pinot grigio.

Here are a few things you might enjoy reading:

* São Schlumberger in Vanity Fair
* a lovely piece on Enfilade
* and the Mystery Diva

Happy thursday! Welome fall.

Oh, wild mushroom risotto! How I would love to be savoring that tonight. (Thanks for reading the Enfilade piece -- I know you don't have much free time these days!)

P.S.

The turquoise Schlumberger doors are yummy too.

Courtney ~ doesn't that risotto sound divine? I think we'll cut down on the butter, but otherwise it is a great recipe. LOVE the turquoise doors, and yellow jacket.

The Enfilade piece was wonderful ~ there's always time for that!!!

Always the best links here to things I would otherwise miss!
The risotto sounds like just the ticket for the fall -yummy! New season, new living arrangements :-) Hope all is well -xo!

Probably no one ever looked forward to an autumn equinox so much as you and the gentleman!
