Potions and Such

Well, well, the season of the Witch is upon us once more and I thought if I were going to get pics in any of my Halloween themed clothes I'd better do it soon.  As many of you who've visited my blog more than once know, I am a huge fan of cardigans and sweaters.  And, as some of you may know from my Instagram posts, I recently won a contest hosted by YeMAK Sweaters.  

The prize was a $1000 gift card to YeMAK.  The card was only valid for a couple of months and only good for one use, which meant if I went there and spent $30 of my gift card on a purchase then it was over and done, so I had to buy $1000 worth of sweaters at once.  Since I'm a longtime fan of MAK, I decided to go big and just buy as much as my gift card would get me.

Of course I purchased my favorite style of cardigan in every possible color and then I decided to try a few other things like embroidered pullovers, a sweater dress, and this cute little polka dot Peter Pan collar sweater which just happens to perfectly match my Witch's Brew Skirt from Retrolicious.

I hope to have an unboxing video of my sweater haul ready for the Youtube channel by the end of the week, but since it's already sweater weather, I thought I'd break out a few now for this gorgeous autumn air.

As I sit here writing this, it has been chilly and rainy all day and I've been curled up by the window working on photos and listening to some antique Glen Miller Orchestra records on the record player that my youngest daughter wanted for Christmas, but whom I've never seen use it, so I thought I may as well put it to use and I've enjoyed this lovely music all day.

In addition to that, I've taken two naps and been busy baking lovely warm foods for such a cold day.  There is roast chicken in the oven now, beans in the crockpot, and corn bread is cooling on the rack.

It has truly been a lovely day of life moving a little slower and tasting a little sweeter and I'm looking forward to more lovely autumn days like this.
