  1. I LOVE this list. It's downright inspiring, because a lot of it is stuff that I want to do but hadn't quite articulated.
    I better get on it.

  2. number thirteen is an excellent plan. i've been digging in myself while walking around the park watching the leaves change. sufjan doesn't disappoint.

  3. You are in for a treat of an Autumn!

    As much as it pains me to admit it, I'm struggling with Sufjan's latest one...where's his banjo?

    I'll give it another go!

  19. You have really nailed what makes this time of year, my favorite time of year. Your lists are great; the perfect blend or type-A-personality-meets-creative-artsy-type.
    That is probably why I enjoy them so much.
    I have been spending the last week or so perusing the blog world, and yours, by far, is the one that I identify with and enjoy the most.
    And you are absolutely right;
    You can't have enough banana bread,

    Our cup overfloweth,
    Leah
