Ritu Charya - An Autumn Routine
With the warm, humid summers almost behind us, cool and crisp Autumn is gently knocking on our doors.
As the weather turns cooler and the air turns crisper, the emerald green of trees slowly changes colors to cast a golden hue on the surroundings, the light cotton clothing is replaced by warmer, softer woolen clothing, and best of all the fragrance of festivities in the air - be it Thanksgiving, Diwali, Halloween makes this a very special season for me. The stores start getting dressed in their best of wares, people start sprucing their houses for the winters and the fragrance of a wood burning fire makes one feel like cuddling up with a loved one with a hot chocolate in hand.
