It is time for the September Monthly Musings all about fall routines and fashion.
1. What are your best tips for getting into a fall routine?
These are just a few things to incorporate as the weather gets cooler:
Light a fall candle
Take a walk outside
Start thinking of Christmas gift ideas
Purge items in your home
Watch a good movie/series on tv you have been putting off during summer
2. Please share your favorite fall recipes.
One of my favorite fall recipes is chocoloate chip pumpkin bread.
3. Favorite fall fashion staples?
My favorite fall fashions staples are cardigans and dresses and boots. As winter comes, I wear more sweaters/sweatshirts.
4. Favorite part of back to school this year?
I do think overall, people like to have routine and school seems to provide that. Not having kids at home, back to school doesn't change anything of my daily routine, except I have to account for the extra traffic when I drive to work.
5. Do you celebrate Homecoming where you are?
Since I don't have kids in school, I don't celebrate homecoming at football games.
6. Apple pie or apple cider?
I will just take a regular apple. I don't care for applie pie or cider.
7. Do the leaves change colors where you live? If so, when?
The fall colors usually change mid-late October. They are beautiful!
Here is a great link to see when the colors are predicted in your area!
I was able to see a few leaves already changing when I was in the NC mountains last weekend.
8. Favorite fall sweet treat?
I love a bag of autumn mix, which is a mix of candy corn and mellowcreme pumpkins. However, I have to limit myself to only buy it once a season. Other than that, I don't really change my treats for the season. I eat frozen yogurt year round :).
I would probably prefer a bonfire because it seems like a time for people to gather and visit.
10. Movies that give you all the back to school feels?
I think of When Harry Meets Sally as a classic fall movie. As far as back to school, I think of Breakfast Club, 16 Candles and Ferris Bueller's Day off.
Have a great Thursday!
Ok I need to make that pumpkin bread- looks and sounds amazing-thanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteIt is and the chocolate chips just add another level to pumpkin bread!
DeleteThat mix looks good. Candy corn is so sweet that I enjoy it paired with something a little salty. Your getting ready for fall ideas are really good. Your pumpkin bread looks good- will check that recipe out!
ReplyDeleteYes, I have found I like the autumn mix better than just a bag of candy corn. I recommend the bread and it is easy to make!
DeleteI bought a can of applie pie filling and was going to make a really simple apple crisp! I am so excited for all the fall things! Bring it on!
ReplyDeleteYes ma'am! I am so happy the weather always seems so much consistently cooler in October.
DeleteThat's a great map for fall foliage! I've never seen that before. I'm excited to be in Colorado during their peak season for leaves. I laughed over the fact that you eat froyo all year round! These were fun to read.
ReplyDeleteIt is a good reference and so glad you will be able to see the pretty leaves in Colorado!
DeleteThat pumpkin bread looks so yummy! When Harry Met Sally is my favorite movie of all time.
ReplyDeleteIt is yummy for the fall!
DeleteI love candy corn even though many people don't like it! When Harry Met Sally is such a good movie.
ReplyDeleteMe too! I just have to limit myself with it.
DeleteThat pumpkin bread looks so good! I'm going to have to make some soon.
ReplyDeleteThe chocolate chips and flavor of orange juice takes it to another level!
DeleteCandy corn is my favorite - except I have no self control and eat it until my teeth hurt ;)
ReplyDeleteIt's so good!
DeleteThat chocolate chip pumpkin bread looks so delicious! I'm hoping to make some muffins similar to that this weekend!
ReplyDeleteIt would be a good recipe for muffins too!
DeleteOh, I LOVE When Harry Met Sally! I also like that decorative pumpkin in the first picture.
ReplyDeleteThanks! It is made out of corn kernels.
