Good Morning Sweeties! Welcome to November…

Sky is overcast but there is no sign of rain or thunder. Probably it’s just a sweet reminder that the season for nuts and crackers is not far away. Peeping outside the window, a part of me definitely wants to be sitting in my cozy bed with an interesting book, while sipping a mug of hot chocolate. But simultaneously, another part of me wants to dress up, be outside and enjoy all the fun & festivities the season has to offer.
