Fall is definitely one of my favorite seasons. Starts with school (usually), football, then leads into hockey season, pumpkin spice smells, and apple pies. Who doesn't love all of that?!?
- One thing I have done the past 3 years since I had been living in Chicago was attending homecoming at my Alma Mater, University of Illinois. I always went to the Alumni BBQ for my work with one of my closest friends. I am sad I can't go this year, due to moving (once again).
- Cleaning my apartment, and decorating for fall. Autumn leaves, candles, tablecloths, placemats, I go all out for fall. I don't even decorate for Christmas. Seriously, I don't. (usually because I am travelling for the holidays!) The fall scented candles also come out. I can't wait to stock up at Yankee Candle after I move in a few weeks!
- Baking. I love baking anything with apples, pumpkin, etc. I am quite the baker, and quite the cook. So I am told.
- Long Drives. I love driving and looking at all of the trees turn color...it is simply amazing, especially in Illinois!
- Bon fires. We had a fire this past weekend, and I love the smell, the warmth, and the conversation!
