And now it's time for autumn favorites and a chance for you to get to know some random things about me. Aren't you excited??
Flannel for all the days. I could wear cozy flannels for the rest of my life. Also, scarves. I have far too many scarves, but who doesn't love them? It's like living in a constant hug all day. Oh and moccasins. They are my favorite shoes for the autumn season. Oh gosh, now that I'm thinking about it, I love it all!
FAVORITE FALL DRINK?
Unlike the rest of the world, I don't care for pumpkin spice lattes. I'm more of a caramel latte kind of girl. Yummmm.

SOMETHING ON YOUR FALL BUCKET LIST?
Oh man! I'm coming up with a fall bucket list, so more on that later. One item on the list? Pumpkin decorating. Duh!

FAVORITE FALL RECIPE?
We always make delicious pumpkin and cream cheese muffins during the autumn months. My mouth watered just thinking about them. I can't wait!

HALLOWEEN CANDY OR PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE?
Like I said, pumpkin spice isn't my thing. Bleck. So halloween candy it is! Specifically, candy corn. I could eat unhealthy amounts of that sugary goodness.

FAVORITE FALL SCENT?
I LOVE the smell of fall itself. You know, that smell of the outdoors when it's crisp out with a nice breeze that is gently pulling the golden leaves from their branches? That is my favorite smell. Oh, and bonfires. And pumpkin muffins baking in the oven.

WHAT IS FALL (WEATHER) LIKE WHERE YOU LIVE?
Glorious. Just glorious. The humidity starts to fade. The days are the perfect temperature for wrapping up in cozy layers. It's still in the upper 70s to low 80s during the day right now, but it is cooling off slowly but surely. The leaves don't fully change colors until later in October, but we'll get a little preview of color here and there. (P.S. these photos are from last year. The leaves had a stunning year last fall. I'm hoping for a repeat!"

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE THINGS ABOUT AUTUMN?
Your fall scent. Yes. Exactly. I'm more of a crispy clean air scent mingled with bonfire smoke girl than I am a synthetic-candle smell. But I still buy the candles, ha!
What a great list! I love Fall too, my sweet tooth always gets the best of me this season!
Um, YES. Candy corn. I love it, but I have friends who hate it and they all give me a hard time! Glad you're on my side with this!
Gorgeous pictures! Thanks for sharing! I have really loved the explosion of fall posts in blog world. :) They make me SO HAPPY!!
I can't tell you how nice it is to find someone else who hates pumpkin spice lattes! I am a caramel macchiato girl all the way.
i want to wear flannel at all times.
seriously - all times.
also i think i counted last fall and i had like 25 scarves...my gosh. and i just bought more. -__-
i remember our dislike for PSL when we chatted at starbucks (AHH i can't believe that happened!)
i need to come up there for fall. just drive up, roll the windows down, andl et all the beautiful leaves fly into my car to take home ;) hahaha
JULIA!! :) it was sooooo nice to meet you at the mixer.
and i hate PSL too...just groady!
I just love fall scents! A couple weeks ago I bought the pumpkin apple candle at bath and body works and it is just PERFECT! I've been burning it every single day since buying it! I don't really like pumpkin spice lattes either, but that's because I don't like coffee. I do love anything pumpkin! I've already made pumpkin ginger waffles, pumpkin quesadillas, pumpkin pie, and pumpkin bundt cake. And that was just from one week! I go crazy with baking in the fall and winter.
Oh, how I love candy corn!! It is the one thing I must buy every fall. And it is also the one thing I eat a lot of [maybe too much?] all season long. Give me the candy over PSL any day :)
YES! No more humidity!!!
Moccasins!! Yes!! I'm also not a fan of the PSL... I like Mexican Mochas a lot when it comes to the colder fall weather. So delish!
My favorite things about fall are Caramel Apple Spices at Starbucks. I had one of my first of the season last night!
I love autumn! PS: these pictures rock!
I'm not the biggest fan of pumpkin spice lattes either! It doesn't even taste like pumpkin! But anyways, love your fall faves list! So many good things on it!
Hey! It was so great meeting you too! I think there should be an anti-PSL club, or at the very least tshirts. I would buy an antil-PSL shirt.
I love moccasins in the fall too! I live in those and boots. :-)
To, to fun! This has me missing real Autumn weather!
"the smell of fall itself." YES times a million! So excited for the weather to cool down, the ground to dry up a bit, and the leaves to start falling. Fall is THE best. :)
Caramel lattes all the way girlfriend! Pumpkin spice is pretty much dirt ;)
And then you had to go and make my mouth water with the mention of those muffins. That sounds delish!
#kindredspirits :) So glad you agree!
Oh man, those muffins. I need to make them soon!
You get it! The smell of fall is just the best!!
COME VISIT ME! ;)
Me too! I just bought myself a pair of riding boots and I can't wait to wear them!
Agreed! I'm just not a fan. :)
And thanks!! I get so excited about fall!
Me too! #besties
Thanks! They are from last year! I can't wait for our leaves to start turning!
Oh YUM. I have tried one before and I liked it but I couldn't finish the whole thing because it is so sweet!
Oh that sounds yummy!
Girl, you understand me. I can't wait.
I think we went through an entire bag of candy corn this weekend. HAHA. Oops.
They are Minnetonka Moccs and I got them from DSW! Check them out! Checking your post out now! :)
Oh my goodness. That sounds delightful!
Pumpkin quesadillas?? I may have to give those a shot!
Hahahahahhaa. I need to purge my scarf collection of the ones I never wear anymore.
Girl, come on up! We will go exploring.
Yay!!! I love caramel in all my coffee drinks!
Thanks! Haha me too!! Bring on all the autumn posts!
What?? It's delicious! I ate so much of it this weekend. Haha.
Mmmmm me too. :)
Yes yes yes!! Twins! :)
i need to make that little vacay happen! maybe in the spring some time!!
I'm going through The Circle links...:)
You pull off flannel soooo well! I dream of being able to wear it, but I just don't "know how"! Seriously. :)
Caramel lattes are really good! I have a few favorites and PSL is NOT one of them.
The way that you described autumn where you live might just be my favorite. Oh, and those muffins sound really, really good.
Girl, throw that flannel on with a pair of skinnies and some flats or boots and your'e good to go. ;)
Yay for caramel latte buddies!
I'm too skinny for skinnies! Bird legs + skinnies = super bird legs 😂
I'll just have to stick to my chunky sweaters and vests and admiring other peoples' flannels for now!
