It is coming up on the middle of October, and finally in the south we are seeing some cooler temperatures.  Autumn is one of those seasons that can go either way in the south, so you never can be too sure of what kind of weather will be coming your way this time around.  When we do get those nice cool autumn temperatures I like to channel my inner artist in many unique ways.  For instance, I like to carve intricate and elaborate designs into pumpkins and I like to create spooky costumes for when I hand out treats to the neighborhood kids too. Some of the costumes are so scary I am convinced I could turn off my home security and scare the bejeezus out of any burglar who would try to get in.  Another thing that I love to do in the fall is create s’mores.

Now some people might not think that s’more crafting is an art form, but I beg to differ.  First, have you not seen the movie “The Sandlot?”  Second, I even found some validation to my point of the fact that making the perfect s’more is truly a real form of art.  Take a look at the “Art and Science of S’Mores” below.  If you didn’t think it was an art before, me thinks you will come around.
