Ode to fall

Lately I have been loving Fall.

Fall is such an easy season.  The weather is so pleasant, the trees so beautiful, and the holidays during Fall expect so little from you.  Just sit back and enjoy some candy and food :) .

Some of the highlights of fall for us have been:

Pumpkin

We have been making some really great pumpkin recipes and this weekend I am excited to try my hand at Vegan Pumpkin Donuts again since I finally got a donut pan :)

Fall flowers

I just love the reds and oranges in the flowers right now.

Seasonal veggies

Nothing like roasted up root veggies with coconut oil over a power-packed Kale Salad if you ask me.

Starbucks coffee

This coffee came out last week and it is a good one for sure.

Fall running races

Yup nothing like the fall temps to get your running mojo going……

What do you love about Fall?

I also love that it is Bill’s birthday month too ;)

  1. I like the cooler temps for running and the fall colors before the leaves are gone. But for me, it signals winter so it’s not my favorite season. Though, there are so many things to appreciate so thank you for that reminder.

    I love the coziness of it, wrapping up in a blanket, bake goods in the oven, cuddling up on th couch type things.

  3. It’s pretty much Winter over here already!

    You know, I just LOVE summer fruit and veggies, but this past weekend, we stocked up in a major way on parsnips, yams and other fall goodies.
    I love late afternoon walks with the dogs when there is a nice bite to the air.
    And I love fires at night!

  5. Cindy says:

    if you know me at all, you know FALL is my soul mate!

    I love every every every thing.

    the colors, the weather, the scenery, the color of the sky, the slowing down, the baking, the flavors, teas, coffees, cozy, knitting and on and on and on.

    love your ode to fall!

    I love fall! The crunch of the leaves under your feet, the smell of leaves burning – having to put on a hat and coat. And pumpkin too! :D

    My fave time of year. That coffee sounds terrific…herbal blend? I want it!

  8. I love fall! It’s my fave time of the year, too. I do like Starbuck’s Thanksgiving blend, but LOVE their Christmas blend (I should seriously stock up to have some for the whole year). ;)

    And it’s the weather, the apples, pumpkins, and spices associated. The leaves turning, cozy fires in the fireplace (finally the weather has gotten cool), and the fact I will be spending lots of time with my extended family!

    What do I love about fall? Not-humid weather, My fall clothes. Suede. Red wine. Fall runs. Crunching leaves. Fall decorating. Thanksgiving. I could go on and on!
