I too, have known Autumn too long.

"A wind has blown the rain away and blown the sky away and all the leaves away, and the trees stand. I think, I too, have known autumn too long."
- e.e. cummings

Despite it officially being Winter in England, it still feels like Autumn. I woke up this morning and it was warm and sunny, and for a moment I completely forgot what time of year it was!

Tomorrow I'm going back home to Telford, it's always far colder up there so I imagine I'll get much more into the winter spirit. I'm really looking forward to the journey, it's about 3 hours on the train just reading and watching the countryside drift by. I love trains, they're warm and have a good amount of people on them, not too many and not too few. You never know who you can meet on a train either, I know someone whose parents met whilst on a train from London to Edinburgh. Just travelling feels nice as well, it's so calming for me. There are no distractions and you can either just concentrate completely on what you're doing or daydream for hours on end.

I made my own Hummus today to take back home for my mum, it came out a little chunkier than usual and pretty lemony but it was altogether pretty fantastic - and I put in a bit of paprika to give it a brighter colour. It's my first time making it from scratch and it turned out far better than I could have hoped.

I'll probably not have the time to update whilst at home, so I'll see you in a week.

P.S Have a nice 11/11/11 tomorrow, make your wishes count!
