My Fall Favorites

Published: Sep 3, 2014 · Modified: Dec 27, 2022 by Raquel · This post may contain affiliate links · 10 Comments

Sharing is caring!

Happy September! I am amazed at how quickly this summer went by. Although summer is my favorite season, I also love fall. There is something about getting back into the school routine that feels well, productive. We just came back from a great weekend in Las Vegas. Even though it is still technically summer, the switch to school mode makes it seem like fall. I am sharing my fall favorites today because the season is nearly here. A few of the things I love about fall are:

  • Cooking and baking with pumpkin and apples. Some of my fall favorite recipes include pumpkin muffins, apple cinnamon rolls,  and pumpkin soup.
  •  Fall decor and any decorating projects with pumpkins.

  • Cooler, crisp evenings
  • Pumpkin Beers
  • pumpkin-craft-beers
  • Casseroles, chili and stews for dinner.
  • The changing colors of trees. This photo is from our trip to Oregon, our trees in Southern California do not look like this.

  • College Football and tailgate parties - GO BRUINS!
  • Sweaters and scarves - as long as they are soft, comfortable sweaters.
  • Fantasy Football - this is only my second year being involved with one, but it is quite fun and makes football so much more interesting to watch.
  • Jeans and boots and booties and more boots - yay!
  • The Fall Fashion issues of magazines like Vogue, InStyle and Glamour. These are some seriously large magazines and I love going through them every fall for inspiration.

      I agree Sharon, although I love Thanksgiving and Christmas, I really do not love winter either. In fact, it is my least favorite season.

    Sounds like we like a lot of the same things! I can't wait to pick apples...it's so much fun. And football season is great...still, for me, I hate to see summer over. Oh well...thanks for sharing your thoughts on fall!

Hi, I'm Raquel! I am a self-proclaimed foodie and have enjoyed cooking and baking since I was little. I loved baking cookies with my mother and grandma as a child, and later making dinners for my parents to foster my passion while in high school. I also had a passion for organizing and keeping things tidy.
