Today I made a “color” change myself…and I think I kind of like it!! The hubs says it makes me look “classy” with a little “sass”. I’ll take the compliment, but stick to my jeans and t-shirts (that’s my kind of class!).
2. Savoring the flavors: I don’t think I can get enough of the sweet and savory smells and tastes that Fall brings. I love me some cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves for sure! And as of late, it’s been all about pumpkin. Tonight I’m venturing into the world of butternut squash and I can’t wait to share. Here’s a little sneak peek…
And of course there will be apple picking followed by the sweet smell of apple butter simmering in the crock pot. OH YUM!! For now, how about some Pumpkin-Applesauce Oatmeal Cookies?
(recipe to come!) 4. Decorations: This year I actually waited until the end of September to break out the Fall decorations! I don’t know what it is, but bringing out the candles, pumpkins, scarecrows, and gourds just seems to make the home a bit more cozier.
5. Family Time: Now the days are getting shorter and the sun is setting earlier, which means dinner is also on the table at an earlier hour. This means we get to look forward to cool evening walks and bike rides! It’s a perfect way to slow down, be together, and end our day.
How do you spend your Fall evenings with your family? Have yourself a “Fall-tastic” weekend!
Blessings,
J’lene

ReplyDeleteThank you Heidi! I'm loving these cooler evenings too! I think we're over due for catching up my friend. Have a wonderful week and hopefully I can get over with those clothes!
