I love FALL.
Everything about the season is wonderful! Acorn squash smothered with
butter and brown sugar cooks in the stove while a hot apple pie cools. Burning
leaves and then enjoying a glass of wine with friends. Here are a few ideas for
you and your honey to have some time to yourselves.
1. Visit a local orchard or pumpkin patch.
2. Go apple picking then make caramel apples.
3. Bake an apple or pumpkin pie together then eat it before
it gets cold. Have fun with the left over whipping cream. Enjoy a glass of local wine or brew.
4. Find your inner child and go on a corn maze and hayride. Rake leaves into a pile and jump in!
5. Make Apple Cider Floats and snuggle in front of a fire.
Apple Cider Float
1 cup of real apple
cider
½ cup ginger ale
1-2 scoops vanilla ice
cream or a seasonal flavor such as cinnamon or apple pie
Ground cinnamon and
nutmeg for sprinkling1-2 TBSP caramel sauce
Pour apple cider and ginger ale into a glass. Add vanilla ice cream. Sprinkle on nutmeg and cinnamon to taste and drizzle caramel sauce on top. Serve with straw and spoon.
6. If you are in a warmer climate, take your lap top and a bowl of popcorn to the backyard
and watch a movie.
7. Have a thermos picnic at the park. Pack soup and hot
cocoa.
8. Go on a Fall Foliage Drive. Pick up some pumpkin spice
coffee and enjoy the ride.
9. Visit a local book store. Many offer special autumn
displays and events.
10. Hop in the car and go for a drive to find a coffee shop or a local pub to visit.
11. Go on a Sunset Date. Grab a thermos of cocoa and a
blanket then head off to a park to watch the sunset. If a park isn't in the cards, simply step onto your porch or back deck. Weather permitting, do some star gazing too. Super
romantic!
12. Have a “Power Outage” Date. Turn all the lights off,
light some candles and have some fun.
13. Try a Spa Night. Take a bath together, give each other
massages and put on your comfy-cozies.
What word do you use to describe this season? Autumn or Fall?

We tried to pick apples but they were gone when we got there, so early, in September. And m pumpkin plants died before forming pumpkins. We did enjoy the foliage on the Blue Ridge Parkway and taking pictures of it. It's maybe the warmest on record for November here. Makes it weird.
I live two counties over from Colleen, and the weather here is really strange! My husband and I live on a farm so we're always together doing things.
