Sometimes we get lost in the emotions of the season and forget what we’re doing. Personally I think that keeping well-fed is a good way to stay focused, but you see how that’s sort of a catch-22.

I will say that we’ve been having a beautiful autumn this year, better than any in recent memory. But the more memorable ones are the ones that weren’t so nice, so we should make an effort to remember this one, too, if only to focus on positive ones. Of course, with all this mental strain, I could see how lunch could fall through the cracks.
