Favorite Fall Posts and an Update on Site Upgrades

September 28, 2024 By Shannon Leave a Comment This post may contain affiliate links and this site uses cookies. Click here for details.

A couple of weeks ago we had a cold front blow through. We woke to temperatures in the 60s. I was thrilled! I knew our daytime highs would soon be back in the 90s, so I resisted the urge to don a sweater and sit beneath a blanket while consuming a warm pumpkin-flavored beverage. However, I did put my fall wreath on our front door!

Autumn is here, and I’m excited to take in the season’s flavors and festivities! Here are some fantastic things fall has to offer.

Last year’s autumn passed in a chaotic rush because we were moving to a new city. We didn’t have time to pause and take in the season’s flavors and festivities. I’m not sure we’re any less busy this year. However, the busyness is a little more predictable, so I’m making it a priority to enjoy some of the things that make fall such a lovely season. Here are some of my favorite posts that highlight the fantastic things fall has to offer.

Final thoughts

Autumn really is such a delightful time. I’m sitting here with the window open, letting in as much of the cool air as I can. I’m hoping to make Apple Cider Cookies with my kids tomorrow. We picked up a Spooky Food cookbook from the library this past week that we’ll look through and select a couple of items to try in the coming weeks. We’re eager for the leaves to change so we can enjoy their colors and the magical feeling of getting to play beneath them as they fall to the ground.

What things do you love most about fall? What foods and festivities do you enjoy the most?
