Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness…

Video: The mini-series The Paradise on PBS.

Art: “Edgar Allan Poe: Terror of the Soul,” at The Morgan Library.

Eats & Treats: Some very tangy cheese that my husband’s friend brought back from Amish country.

Drinks: An Oktoberfest beer or two.

Beauty Products: A trial-size tube of Liz Earle’s Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser. I think I really like it.
