The trouble with fall

naomikritzerI mostly like fall, except for three things:
1. The knowledge that winter is coming, which I can mostly banish until it becomes inescapable reality.
2. The fact that I can't close any of the bedroom dresser drawers, because everyone needs access to both the short-sleeved stuff and the long-sleeved stuff.
3. The difficulty with menu planning. We plan menus by the week and I shopped last Thursday, when it was chilly and getting chillier and forecasts of warm weather in the future seemed implausible. So we're having split pea soup with smoked turkey, cooked in the crock pot, for dinner. This sounded really nice when it was 45 degrees and windy. It's currently 81 and muggy.
