Chivalry is not dead. Thank you, Stranger Tony, who turned around and came back to help me change my spare tire on I-10. He said he'd want someone to pull over and help his wife if she were in the same situation. God bless him.

This just in. I like pumpkin.
Just in time for...

pumpkin gelato from the wonderful Frost in Gilbert, AZ

pumpkin muffins from the wonderful Jessica B (with some help from me) and frosting invented by Terri. YUM. (Yes, that is butternut squash on the side, also surprisingly delightful!)
