autumn

Today is the first day of fall (day and night are of nearly equal length). I love the colors of fall. I love to dress for fall temperatures inviting for it.

Temperatures turned down over night and it became pretty chilly.

In the office: heating is off (energy saving). At home: heating is off (energy saving, one exception was made for our visitor from SC, USA). It looks like an interesting winter ahead.

We decided to go with the Chinese approach (3 year approved concept): wearing winter coat, scarf and hat in the (home) office (like in the good old Shanghai days). Heating the home with the Raclette grill and enjoying the nice side effect: dinner (and red wine for the soul). Heat blanket in bed. Ready for winter.
