Fall Favorites (See Jane List)
The heat wave this past weekend was a pleasant surprise. Nights without jackets and days in tee shirts–definitely not commonplace for October. As nice as it was, it made me long for fall. I realize that come February I will be cursing myself for ever wishing for cooler temperatures, but 87 degrees in October just doesn’t seem right. Until it gets brisk again, I need to remind myself of why I love fall:
– stepping on crunchy leaves
– halloween
– new TV seasons/shows
– flannel anything
– laying on the couch with a blanket and a pumpkin-scented candle lit in the background
– thick, fashion magazines (fall issues!)
– pumpkin/apple flavored anything
– soups + chilis
– scarves
– daylight savings – i love falling back and getting an extra hour of sleep
– Columbus + Veterans’ Days – Oh WAIT, I don’t get those holidays off
What do you love about fall?
GREAT reasons to love Fall hunnie….itll be here soon:)

I miss Halloween! I tried dressing up last year and having a few people over, but it wasn't the same AT ALL.
I love it all, especially everthing pumpkin flavored!
Love your loves about fall!! I don't even have anything to add…maybe hot chocolate, haha π

YAY, I am not alone I not getting those days off! hehe
You list is perfect! I would add – long walks where clutching your honey is more that PDA it is a necessity! (Goodness newlywed mush status!)
Also, layering! layers are so perfect in fall you can get away without a large coat if you add simple little extras (scarfs, camis – things you wouldn't think of wearing all summer long)!
The change in seasonal foods – yum!!! Fall root veggies, in soups or on pasta!
I love the smells and scents of fall π
I love it :)))))

I love so many things about fall. The fashion, pumpkin anything, the colors of the leaves on the trees, and being able to make my favorite slow cooking comfort foods ; )
Happy Tuesday Anna Jane!

Oh love that fall brings soup and chilli, so yummy. Love a good chill in the air!
I love crisp morning runs!! And I too love scarves and love to drink tons of tea. Love your list! xo
I love the crisp mornings, cozy chunky sweaters, drinking hot tea / coffee, halloween!, carving pumpkins … changing colors of the leaves / trees. Ah there are so many things I love about fall! PS: I'm going to email you about meeting up before you leave sf! π
It's been hot here too and although I wished for warm weather all summer, I'm the same way about longing for Fall weather. I love all the same things about Fall that you mentioned! Especially anything pumpkin/apple and curling up with a blanket while watching Fall TV and reading thick magazines. And the pumpkin patch!

Love your list. I love crunching in leaves (i think i saw 5 yesterday and jumped on them anyway) and anything apple pie-ish. It calls my name!

I love cozy sweaters and scarves, caramel apples and cider, hot chocolate and the flutter of leaves falling around your feet. Nice post:)

Every blessed thing on your list, my dear, is what fall is to me! It's been way to hot, honestly, and I'm desperate to wear a pair of boots with jeans!

Couldn't agree more, standing on crunchy leaves is the best!
