Tip of the day:  Aprons are making a come back.  Have you shopped lately and seen all the cute aprons available.  I like to go to yard sales and get the vintage aprons.  Those worn by ladies who loved to cook.  Tying  on an apron when preparing a meal is the first step to creating a comforting kitchen atmosphere.  Doing this simple act will prepare your heart and mind for what might be considered a burden into a blessing. Have a fall apron or favorite apron display it in your kitchen to remind you to tie it on.

The aroma of Fall:  Try plugging in a Fragrance Warmer.  It will disperse fragrance without the flame.   My favorite gel for the fall is the Warm Cinnamon Pumpkin.
