So Much to Love About Fall...

Happy Friday.....



Have I mentioned lately, just how much I love "Fall ...Autumn"...

I do....I really do!  This is the season that makes me want to cook....to stay in the kitchen....(No remarks from the hubby please)

Things like breads....pumpkin bread, poppy seed bread, apple loaf, and banana nut bread....

And then there are those things like homemade Chile, homemade soups, Frito pie, coconut pie, chocolate pie, cookies, and apple pies....

Don't worry, I haven't forgotten about "Smores."  Got to have some smores, along with roasted wieners on  hot dog buns....



I also love the outdoors....Going to all the Fall festivals and being a part of the sights and the smells....I love pumpkin carving...It's so much fun to give a pumpkin their own little face and to see it light up when a candle is lit inside....


Traveling the back roads....affords us the opportunity to see all the beautiful colors that the Lord has painted on the canvas of nature....
And then there are the hayrides!!  Oh how I love hayrides....especially when there is a nip of coolness in the air....I love getting all warm and cozy as the trailer filled with hay delights us as it travels down old roads and over the old wooden bridges......

There is so much to love about Fall.....

How about you all....what are some of your favorite things about Fall?

Enjoy the Blessings of this day!

  2. Good morning, Shug!! As usual, it is so pretty, and uplifting to visit you! And I like those fall cookies and pumpkin roll on your sidebar! Your country pictures are just beautiful today. My very favorite thing about fall is the trees and leaves!!! They are dying, but shouting with joy as they do! There is a verse in the bible about the trees clapping their hands, and I do believe this is when they come the closest to that!

  3. Beautiful photos! Fall is my favorite time of year also. I love the crisp, cool air. Such a relief from the stifling temps of summer. If I didn't have to work I think I'd be cooking more...making soups and chilis and casseroles.

  5. Love your photos, Shug. Fall is my favorite season. I love the changing colors of the trees, the smells and the cooler temps after a long, hot summer. I also love the foods that we associate with cooler weather. Soups, casseroles, roasts, etc. Can you tell I just love food? LOL! Have a great weekend!

  7. We love the cool nights that are perfect for hot cocoa. And I love taking walks in the evening with my hubby, son and our three doggies. We do enjoy the local fall festivals and seeing pumpkins everywhere. Sometimes in October we have a getaway to Boone, NC or Blueridge, GA to see all the color changing in the mountains. I do start baking this time of year so we all enjoy that. I enjoy it a little too much. LOL!
    Hope you have a wonderful weekend Shug!
