Hello, readers, and welcome to Panoply! Happy September, the meteorological start of fall! Of course, the seasons as we know them follow the astronomical equinoxes and earth's orbit, but the notable climate changes generally fall by three month periods on the calendar (starting Dec-Feb for winter, etc); hence, meteorologically, it's fall, y'all!
Today marks the 44th instalment of the Tales of the Traveling Tote, can you believe it? It's all about quarterly tales of ladies connecting friendship and stories of our everyday lives via a MacKenzie-Childs tote we all purchased at one time or another.
