Weather It Is

Good Evening:

It's over -- that's it -- fall will exit and winter will enter. Winds will quickly shift to the northwest and usher in the coolest air of the season. Still, some might still call this fall: in fact, my wife's mother told me that years ago (when she was a young mother) she remembers the rain and cold that greeted each new child -- and this was during fall before the arrival of winter.

Me:  Yes, I just dragged out the heaters (portable) and feel the cold, damp, rain, on its way. The Chanukah season is always the beginning of Winter in earnest. Soon the sufganiot will begin to appear all over. And in earnest, I will make my gluten free donuts, and maybe have a Misibah for the neighboring children during Chanukah.
