Falling into my Favorites

I love fall for a number of reasons and it is absolutely my favorite season. I love the smell of pumpkin spice candles burning. I love that whenever I visit my grandmother's in the fall there is always freshly baked sweet potatoes. I love that there is numerous football games being played. I love that the temperature is as near to perfect as it will be all year. It isn't too hot like the heat filled days of summer and that it isn't so cold that I'm freezing even with my heavy winter coats on. I also love with the arrival of fall I know the holiday season is just around the corner.

Below is a few more of my favorite things. The falling leaves. The crispness in the air as the leaves start falling is thrilling. I love the colors of fall the reds, golds, orange, and browns. I like going for walks and feeling the crunch of leaves underneath my feet. I'm always excited the first time I see candy apples upon a visit to the grocery store. That is one of the first signs that fall is arriving to me. While caramel apples are delicious I prefer candy apples. Fall is the best season for fashion in my opinion. I love wearing warm soft sweaters. I also love that without 100 degree temperatures it is much easier to wear layers. I love tights. Especially when they have cute patterns or come in bold colors. And they are not most logical fashion choice on hot summer days. I love Halloween. I like having scary movie marathons and feasts filled with candy. But my favorite thing is the trick-or-treaters. Cute little kids in adorable costumes, who wouldn't love that? Each year I look forward to greeting them at my front door and giving them candy. The child pictured above is dressed up as a sprite from Rainbow Brite. ☺ Of course with my love of sweets comes a love for delicious hot chocolate. There's nothing better to warm you up during a cool morning or a late evening. I like my hot chocolate with marshmellow cream and cinnamon. How do you prefer yours? Sitting in front of a warm fireplace with a good book and while watching a romantic comedy. Is there any better way to spend a relaxing, lazy Fall evening?
