Time To Soak Up The Season

  1. Make apple crisp, of course! My Apple Crisp with Salted Caramel Ice Cream is a great recipe to start with.
  2. Start a spooky movie list.
  3. Take a drive to see the changing colors. Check out when the colors will peak in your location!
  4. Find a new favorite cool weather beverage. Whether it’s something warm and caffeinated, spiked and sultry, or perhaps a mixture of the two…find something that warms you from the inside out.

5. Decorate your front step with pumpkins.

6. Purge your summer closet. Time to get honest with yourself: what’s outdated, doesn’t fit well, or have you not worn in the past year? Time for it to go!

7. Sip a cider! Check out my Hard Cider Taste Test in which I tried 12 different hard ciders and hailed one supreme.

8. Take Halloween to the next level. Get creative with your costume, using items you already have on hand. 

9. Find a new slow cooker recipe to make on repeat in the chillier months. The smell of my Slow Cooker Balsamic Beef Stew is reason enough to try this scrumptious recipe…it’s a favorite in my house.

10. It wouldn’t be Autumn without a bonfire! Bundle up on a chilly night and warm up outside.

11. Plan now for a colorful 2021: plant Spring bulbs! I love tulips, hyacinth, and allium, but there are so many options. Research what growing zone you’re in and find some blooms that make you happy!

12. Find a new favorite treat using the quintessential flavors of Fall. I include some delicious options in my article Sweets and Treats To Try This Fall. Those Pumpkin Brown Butter Blondies are a non-negotiable!

13. Arrange a bouquet of autumnal blooms. Check out my guide for How To Create A Stunning Fall Floral Arrangement for tips and tricks.

14. Just as the cooling temperatures determine our wardrobe, they also influence our time in the kitchen. Stock your pantry so warm, comforting, and cozy meals are within reach at all times. Check out my Guide To A Well Stocked Seasonal Pantry for more details on how I ready my pantry for the Fall and Winter.

15. Carve a pumpkin. Don’t forget to roast the seeds!

16. Open the windows. This is an intentional habit I have every Spring and Fall. There’s something about the routine of letting stale air leave your home that I believe welcomes in new opportunities and fresh perspectives. 

17. Make your very own Pumpkin Spice Latte! Check out my article for 3 Cozy Coffeeshop Drinks To Try At Home for more seasonal sippers.

18. Support a local winery or brewery. So many locations have pickup options as well now, so you can enjoy local sips safely. 

19. Read a ghost story.

20. Enjoy your favorite candy from when you were a kid.

21. Playing in the leaves doesn’t just have to be for the littles! Amidst a productive afternoon in the yard, allow yourself to jump in to a leaf pile or two.

22. Try an unlikely pumpkin recipe. My Chicken Enchiladas with Pumpkin Sauce are a delicious option to enjoy pumpkin in new way.
