Across much of the USA autumn has come early.
It's so nice and chilly here that I made myself a nice cup of pumpkin spice coffee today, an autumn treat I really enjoy, While I enjoyed my cuppa I was pondering a rew things I want to do with my home.
Here are some questions for you to ponder:
1. If you could live in the world of any movie, which one would you choose and why?
I would like to live in the iold world of the New York City of You've Got Mail. It is the New York of the old days when there were with in Manhattan, small neighborhoods with their own schools, grocers, etc. It was safe, and lovely with every cultural advantage at your fingertips. The NYC school system was the finest in the world.
I spent a lot of time in NYC as a teenager.
2. If you could have coffee or tea with a woman from history or from fiction come to life, who would that be and why?
I would like to have tea with Anne of Anne of Green Gables. I think we would have a lot in common and much to talk about.
As for a real person I think it would be interesting to have tea with Abigail Adams wife of John Adams our 2nd President or Lady Bird (Claudia Alta Taylor) Johnson, wife of Lyndon Baines Johnson our 36th President .
Falling Leaf Festival
3. If you could create an autumn-themed festival, what unique events or foods would it feature?
There are apple festivals now but we could use a falling leaves festival.. with delicious fall foods.. We would have contests for the best chili, stew, soups and desserts like apple , pecan and pumpkin pies. Hot pretzels, caramel and candy apples.. quilting contests with a sale. We will have hayrides, sing alongs, dancing and especially line and square dancing. People can sell their beaded jewelry and other crafts as well.
So come on over to our Falling Leaf Festival!
4, If autumn had a personality, how would you describe it, and what kind of friend would it be?
Autumn has a colorful, sparkling personality full of life . She is fresh, brisk and romantic.
Autumn makes a good friend.. she comes early but does not stay too late. She cools down a hot temper and soothes her friends with comforting temperance and warm ways.

I think meeting with Abigail Adams would be enlightening, too. So many questions I'd love to ask her! And here's a question for you - Is Lady Autumn an AI generated picture? It's lovely, and one could almost believe that she is real. Blessings, Annie!
ReplyDeleteHi Martha Jane, I don't know if it's AI generated or not but it was taken offline.
DeleteHave a lovely week ahead.
Enjoyed reading your answers. Hope you have a great week.
ReplyDeleteI love your "Lady Autumn". Perfect description!! She would make a good friend! Interesting choices of women in history to meet. I would not have thought of them, but I am sure they would be very interesting. I love how "Lady Bird Johnson" made sure there were so many wildflowers planted along the highways. She's my kind of woman! And of course I would love to have tea with Anne of Green Gables too...except I would hope she wouldn't get me drunk on her "raspberry cordial". LOL. I enjoyed this post this week and had fun pondering my answers as well. Thank you again!
ReplyDeleteI am so happy you enjoyed the questions!! I have a recipe for Anne's Raspberry Cordial without the liquor in it! I had some when I was on Prince Edward Island. I think I will post it tomorrow.
DeleteI liked your answers, my post is up now
ReplyDeleteWe share a love of NYC which I think is especially nice in the Fall. Would you believe I've never been to PEI? But I almost made it. My brother and I were travelling around the Gaspe Peninsula and we were right across the bridge from PEI. I wanted to go there but he wanted to keep driving as we had a long way to go. That was my one and only road trip all the way to NYC and Asbury Park, NJ then back to Montreal.
