I know it’s only the first day of September, but my annual sign that fall is practically here came when Thom and I passed by Starbucks today, peered through the window, and saw these magically delicious phrases on the menu board: pumpkin spice Frappucino and pumpkin spice latte.
It’s been a relaxing, sunny start to the Labor Day weekend. Earlier today we went to the Westlake mall, where Thom got his hair cut, and then we had lunch at the good old Westlake Coffee Shop. We shopped around for a bit (DSW is a constant siren calling to us … but lately I’ve been looking for boots, and why, oh why does this location not carry men’s boots?). Not that I need more shoes. Recently I was rummaging through the dark and scary warren of dust bunnies under our bed and found several perfectly good pairs of shoes I had totally forgotten about.
Later in the afternoon we drove to San Mateo and revisited the Peninsula Humane Society to take a look at the cats available for adoption. Yes, we’re planning to get a new cat (or two?) in the near future!
