Autumnal

[ellarien]

The temperature here was in the 90s today, but it does cool down in the evenings now, enough to make it not totally insane to cook up a batch of stew for once and future dinner. It came out very orange-and-red; russet potato, yellow onion, garnet yam, tomato, red pepper, one of each, and a package of stir-fry beef, sauteed with the onions and spices before shoving it all in the oven. Also coriander, paprika, crushed garlic, and possibly slightly too much black pepper, but not unpleasantly so.

The mountains are starting to do that thing they do in winter, when they light up purple-pink after sunset.

And there's a new episode of one of my shows on TV.
