This weekend Greg and I headed up to Manchester, VT to enjoy all of our favorite fall rituals.  We visited a local pumpkin patch and I chose a bunch of mini pumpkins and gourds to bring back to Boston.  When it comes to gourds, the uglier and more misshapen, the better! I’m the opposite when choosing a pumpkin.  I perseverate until I find the perfect one.

We also went apple picking at Mad Max’s farm.  I love going further up North to pick apples; the farms in Massachusetts get very picked over after the first few weeks.  The foliage surrounding the farm was so beautiful!   The gorgeous colors are such a unique facet of New England.
