The Autumn Equinox

Today is the autumn equinox and if I didn't know already Google would have told me. It was a lovely Google Doodle. Well, now it is officially autumn, for everyone. For me, it truly starts with the first day of September, as I often say here. Nevertheless, the day needs to be commemorated and celebrated. On this blog at least. I thought to put the Google Doodle, but I wanted something more original and more personal. So instead I have downloaded a picture of fruits harvest, apples and crabapples, and apple and crabapple jellies, with flowers, in a basket. And yes, I have downloaded similar pictures on this blog before. Because autumn is of course associated with harvest. This is a sort of horn of plenty and it fits the day perfectly.

On abolit tout ce qui ne rapporte pas en ce moment. Ces politiques professionnelles ne regardent que leur nombril et ne s'embarrasse pas, ni ne réfléchissent ! Et pourtant la musique, la lecture et le sport permettent de vider les salles d'attente des médecins !!!
Au fait vous portez le même prénom que mon fils...
