Hello October

Even though fall starts before October, for some reason the dawn of October signifies fall to me. This morning as I was driving to get my morning coffee, I saw a man raking golden and amber leaves up off the sidewalk. Everywhere I look, leaves are changing colors. Other indicators that it's definitely fall: I've swapped my tank tops out of my closet for cozy sweaters, turned up the heat in my house, and been delighted at the reappearance of pumpkin spice lattes.

What are your favorite things about fall?

  3. Growing up on the East Coast, my favorite thing about fall was the color you'd see all around. The leaves, the light, everything is always so gorgeous. Apple cider, sweaters, scarves, pumpkins... Those are the frosting on the cake.

  4. One of my favorite things about fall is the sunny days that are warm but with a slight chill in the air. I love the contrast of the colorful leaves against the blue sky.

    I saw a coffee stand yesterday that was already advertising egg nog lattes! Can't we please just enjoy fall for awhile?

  5. I adore how the chilly air softly blows through the trees, making their leaves whisper... and the soft rays of light slowly fading through the day... October is just lovely to me!
