Ahhh, it’s here! The first day of fall. Sure, it’s rainy and dreary outside, but you can’t help but be excited to know autumn is here. The return of fall is like seeing an old friend who has been away for a long time. It brings with it the refreshment of cooler weather after a hot summer. Fall is a time for reminiscing. It brings back so many colors, memories, cozy feelings, and the desire to snuggle up on the couch with a cup of hot cocoa and a good book or movie (a.k.a You’ve Got Mail or any movie featuring NYC in the fall). I love pumpkins, walking through colorful fall leaves, the sound of the wind blowing outside my window, college football, cooler weather, Starbucks red holiday cups, and that spooky feeling you get around Halloween – even though you’re really too old to get spooked now. I love the yummy fall recipes that I get to cook only once a year. And, as silly as it is, I love switching out my wardrobe. Tank tops for sweaters, flip flops for boots. It’s a fresh start, but also the return of so many good things.
So, welcome back fall. It’s good to see you!
