Autumn the 'Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness'

Autumn is one of my favourite seasons, and is the time of year that Keats called the 'Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness'. Yes, autumn is a season famous for its harvest times, turning leaves, cooling temperatures and darkening nights.

Within this post I share a few Autumnal pictures, I hope you enjoy them.

After a really hot summer, I think we are all ready to welcome fall. Your photos are lovely and I love carrots as a base in a soup. The cumin flavors pair so nicely with the carrots and of course apples just adds additional flavor and sweetness. Thanks for the recipe.

Thank you for the beautiful autumn pictures.
The leaves haven't started to turn yet here, but we've had a lot of sunny weather so far. Great to be outside.
And yes, now, among other things, the time for soups begins. I like.
A hug for you.

I love the colours of Autumn, but it has got very cold very quickly, which I do not like. Having said that its log burning season and I have a beef stew in the slo cooker for dinner tonight.
