What Makes Fall, Fall for You?

I had a conversation with a friend today about fall. I asked the question: What quintessentially makes it fall for you? Some of our answers matched and some did not. So now I am asking you the same question.

Here are my top 5 for what makes it fall for me.

  1. The Leaves Changing
  2. Pumpkins and Pumpkin Patches
  3. Apples in Abundance and Orchards
  4. Sweaters and Scarves
  5. Warm Drinks in the Evening

Smell That

Fall means there are new smells in the air and that includes in cooking. Here are five recipes I plan on cooking up that are that cozy fall smell to me.

  1. Vanilla Chai Tea Cookies from Mommy Hates Cooking 
  2. Pumpkin Spice Waffles from Lovely Little Kitchen 
  3. Apple Cinnamon Fruit Leather from Real Mom Nutrition 
  4. Best Ever Hot Wassail from Yummy Healthy Easy 
  5. Roasted Turkey Breast with Infused Butter from I Food Blogger 

September Reflections

Yes, I have been a little busy but I am getting back to normal . . . slowly but surely. I hope everyone had a great September and so far an awesome October. Below is a list of the top 5 things I want to do during the month of October plus a few pictures of my travels. Enjoy!

  1. Cozy up in a blanket and watch a classic horror film. I am thinking Dracula!
  2. Take a walk down a trail littered in beautiful fall leaves.
  3. Eat a pumpkin scone with a hot tea.
  4. Watch the fog roll in on a misty day.
  5. Have another dinner party!
