October Gift.

October is the first of my 3 favorite months. It's wonderful seeing the leaves change color. I get so excited for it. This will be the first time I'll get to see in since living in Arizona. It'll be like looking through a child's eye. Do you have any special traditions for October? My Dad and I would exchange a Halloween gift. Usually something cheap or homemade (cake!). I think it's a nice tradition.

I'd like to celebrate the magic of October with you. However, airfare is expensive and trying to see everyone on my watch list in 1 month takes more money than I have. Also trying to keep all that cake fresh would be pretty damn hard. So I'll share a different gift with you. The gift of knowledge. I've compiled a large list of various art related things and resources I've found extremely helpful. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
