The local theater had a screening of “The Breakfast Club” this evening. So fun. Our host welcomed us to the “first GenX movie night” and I asked, “does that mean there will be more GenX movie nights?” And he said that is the plan. Bitchin’!

The local UU church had a vigil this afternoon. I went. I needed to be around actual living humans (as opposed to the virtual ones on social media). Being UUs, they were of course extremely lovely and welcoming. 
Clean as snow
Sometimes, you spot funny products in small local stores. This amused me.
season of the witch
…hazel, that is. I’d kind of forgotten about Prisma, but I messed around with it today. Fun! I’ll have to keep this in mind.

Sukkot is the Jewish harvest festival, during which a Sukkah is built: a temporary hut constructed for the holiday, and topped with branches and other autumnal decorations. Some people build one in their yard, and eat meals there (many people even sleep there). But I guess if you don’t have a yard, that’s when you call the Sukkah-mobile.
and he’s off
Not the greatest picture, I know, but still kind of cool. My intent was to take a photo of this hawk as he sat on our back fence, but he flew off just as I took it.
icy egg
So I peeled on of my steamed eggs this morning, only to discover that, under the shell, it was completely coated in ice. Weird.
See you next spring
Today was the last day for the local farmers’ market. I have gone just about every week, and we have been enjoying some nice tasty fresh local food all summer. Last year, there was a small winter market; I’ll have to keep an eye out for it.
I think that I shall never see….
Spent some time at the Arnold Arboretum in JP today, since the weather was so fantastic. Haven’t been a long long time. The place is huge; even on a beautiful day when there were many cars parked outside the Arboretum, it was easy to find quiet paths with no one else around.

Spent the afternoon at the originalm Honk! festival in Davis Square. Super fun. I know there are other Honkfests around the country, and you should totally go if you can. For those of you not familiar with Honk!, check here:
