Saturday soccer fun. Look at the determination on Owen's face. That boy means business.
Lemonade is easy to make, it only requires three ingredients: Water, Sugar and Lemons. I knew that if I started a personal blog, I would be forced to write about food, as it's my passion. I would also write about everyday things (water), events that were totally awesome (sugar), and occasionally I would vent and rant about frustrations, irritations and things that could only be described as terrible, horrible, no-good very bad and sour (lemons.) Thus Lindsey's Lemonade was born. Drink it up.

Wood Burning
Today I was driving down the road, just before sunset. The weather here is starting to get a little bit colder so there was a slight nip in the air. I caught a wiff of a campfire smell, spotted some apples for sale on the side of the road, drove past some cheesy Halloween decorations and some houses decorated with scarecrows, pumpkins and hay bales, and I almost started crying. I LOVE the fall. I love sweater weather. I love cocoa and cider and pumpkin bread (but not pumpkin cookies, especially not with chocolate chips... I don't get it either.) Every once in a while I am suddenly hit with the beauties of the earth, the goodness of God, the love of family, the delight of children playing, and for an all too brief moment, I forget how thick my ankles are, that my house isn't spotlessly clean, or that my church clothes didn't get laid out and ironed in preparation of the Sabbath. I think autumn weather brings on happy thoughts. It's like natures segue into Thanksgiving.
