about the Golden Days of Fall
Welcome to Tales of the Traveling Totes #4
Texas is often hot and dry well into October,
so we don't experience the beauty that
one sees in the Northeast with
the blazing glow of changing leaf color.
Our autumns are much more subtle.
They are indeed, Golden!
Miss Merri Mac and I
have to find our flaming orange hues
at the local plant centers.
And the many pumpkin patches
that pop up around town in early October.
Even Miss Mini Mac enjoys exploring
the abundance of russet hued pumpkins and gourds
that seem to be at every market in Austin.
Loading up a few plants
to put out in the fall garden.
A favorite fall activity is
of course shopping the venues during
Round Top Antiques Week.
Miss Merri Mac
and I wouldn't miss it!
Always the first week in October.
A highlight this year was meeting
Anita @ Cedar Hill Ranch.
She was there signing her new book,
FRENCH ACCENTS
Farmhouse French Style.
What a treat to meet a blogging friend
whom I've admired and followed for many years.
You can find her book HERE.
Autumn in the Texas Hill Country west of Austin
is always a beautiful time of the year.
One such delightful day trip is to a
nearby olive grove at the Texas Olive Company.

Halloween is definitely
a big part of the Golden Days of Fall
here at Hyacinths for the Soul.
There is the Annual Halloween
Dinner Party with long time girlfriends.
You can see previous years' dinner parties
HERE and HERE.
Miss Merri Mac and I have also joined girlfriends
at several Halloween themed Happy Hours
where the treats were very scary.
Previous Halloween Happy Hours
can be seen HERE and HERE.
Great ideas for party food!
Miss Merri Mac has her mask
and is ready to be filled with Halloween treats
to share with all those little goblins
that will soon be on the street.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN TO ALL!
Golden Days of Fall!
Let's Celebrate!
