COOL NOVEMBER DAYS, WARM FAMILY MEMORIES
T
he older I get, the more I find myself enjoying November. Even though it starts to get cold and often it snows, I still enjoy its beautiful presence. The leaves turn even more beautiful colors than they do in October (even if they’re mostly gone by the end of the month). I always try and get outside for a hike early in the month if there isn’t snow on the ground. I love seeing the colorful foliage especially at Hitchcock Nature Center or, a little closer to home, at Elmwood Park. November also means more time inside
with my family doing crafts, watching movies, making a cozy fire in our fireplace and making delicious drinks, soups and desserts. And then there’s Thanksgiving, a holiday I feel is often overlooked between the excitement of Halloween and Christmas. I love baking with family for Thanksgiving, and I love even more getting together to celebrate those relationships and everything we’re thankful for — not only this month but all year long. No matter how you spend this month, I hope it’s bright, cheerful and full of kindness.
