Note: It’s autumn! I want to get school supplies, and go to a pumpkin farm, and drink cocoa or coffee under a tree that is dropping leaves with a good book. That last one has never been an actual thing that I’ve ever done, but I love the esthetic of it. Maybe one day this autumn when the leaves actually turn and I don’t want to yell into the void of time and space (because of 2020 reasons) I can make it happen. If I do I’ll take lots of pictures and share!
