First Taste of Fall

 

 

 

  Of course, I would wear a wool beret on a 74 degree, slightly humid day. That didn't really stop me from expressing myself from the fact I was going apple picking this morning. After being woken up by my mom, announcing we were going to Butternut Farm with friends, I had quite a clear picture enter my mind of what I wanted to wear (seldom does this happen) regardless of the weather (..always seems to happen). So there I was strolling down the isles of apples with smells of cinnamon doughnut and baked pie wafting through the air (fresh from the farm shoppe), my younger brothers weaving between the trees and I, snapping away my camera. It was the most perfect overcast day and later on the sun decided to peak through. We came home with 52 lbs. of honey crisp apples. {Though I am a granny smith lover at heart.}

Well, east coast girls are hip..

As promised, I brought a {working!} camera. On Thursday, we arrived at the lake just after someone had vomited in it. (don't worry, I didn't capture any photos of that) So it was at least 45 minutes before we could actually swim. It was extraordinarily hot with the sun beating down. I dug my toes in the cool sand and read. I brought with me I Capture the Castle - one of the loveliest books. Once I'm done I hope to watch the movie. I love looking at the movie stills, costumes and scenery...anyway, I digress. Onto the pictures...

This was the train station in Wolfeborough, I think only trolleys go through it now.

We stopped at Bailey's Bubble for some ice cream. They also have some of the best hot fudge around!

I

I got German chocolate cake ice cream with gummy bears. I guess some people might think gummy bears and chocolate is gross. I think it's one of the best combinations ever. Or at least better than the new chocolate & bacon idea. I have yet to try it, but still...who's idea was that?

My brother's ice cream mustache...made me think of Charlie Chaplin. :)

Erin has fabulous style. ;) Check out her purse!

Johnny Rockets!

My friend and I passed by this cute little restaurant in the mall. As soon as I saw it I knew I had to eat there.

They give you this right before they serve your meal, so cute!

Complete with a cherry coke!
