Is it just me, or has the latter half of this summer flown by? I cannot believe that it's already September. I've packed the last few weekends with lots of baking, hiking and running around town. This weekend, I fully plan on lying low, catching up with friends and prepping my house for fall. Who's ready for cooler days and the fall holidays? I know I am.
