- The colours of the leaves
- The fall fashion, I just love the chunky sweaters, patterned scarves, stylish gloves and the whole colour palette that comes with it.
- drinking chai latte's at my favorite cafe
- the coziness of the evenings, with the light disappearing earlier it just feels right to be curled up on the sofa at home with a mug of hot chocolate
- The harvest of my herbs (and this year tomatoes) that grew all summer and preparing them to be dried, frozen, etc for use throughout the winter.
- The way fall feels like a new start, a new year.
- I love the light of a fall morning, there is something about it, a certain slant to it, a cool blueness to it, that is different than the light in summer. (interestingly enough, I think the light in the evenings of spring has a similar quality as the morning light in fall).
- Thanksgiving, the food, the family, the desserts. Mostly the desserts. ;)
- Baking season starts in earnest. I don't bake throughout the summer, I just find it too hot. By the time fall comes around, I've missed it so much and I can't wait to start!
