November calling...

While I do love the holidays, I think November might be the sweetest month of the fall/winter season. Not too cold, the malls aren't too busy yet, no hectic Christmas concert and holiday schedules, my house is decoration free and gloriously uncluttered (except on weekends!), and my birthday falls smack dab in the middle of the month...the perfect excuse for Chinese food!(photo source: BHG.com)
