Early this morning I noticed the hot steam evaporating off the washcloth over the kitchen sink and realized the days are getting cooler as winter approaches. This year, I'm welcoming the cooler weather over the hot summer for some reason. I'm not sure why as I usually don't mind the heat of summer. Maybe it's age creeping up on me.

With the cooler weather comes baking. Today I made some blueberry muffins, and as predicted, I had to hide the few that were left at the end of the day, else I would see none tomorrow. Tis a compliment on my cooking prowess I guess.

School holidays are here, and we're relishing the idle mornings. The Exception is tomorrow, where we'll be up earlier  to make a trip into the city and then onto the vegan friendly, Brunswick Street Fitzroy. I know it is difficult living as a vegan in a cruel and callous, meat crazed society, but we can feel fortunate knowing that Melbourne is rated the 5th most vegan friendly city in the world. It's nice to know we have company.

Even better to realize , we were amongst the first trail blazers, all  those years ago. Veganism has progressed in leaps and bounds in the last 27 years of my experience.

It's very promising.
