In 16 days, it will be the first day of autumn, 22 September 2026. Fall ends 20 December 2026, for a total of 90 days.
Foliage, pumpkins, corn stalks, apples, apple cider donuts, craft fairs, squash soup, foggy mornings, dew adorning spider webs, blustery weather, mums, Thanksgiving.
Out of all of it, what enthuses you most?
Me. Squash soup & foliage

I have already been bringing out my soup recipes. I so love this time of the year. Janice

The colors. I love the fall colors. And harvest foods. Thanksgiving's OK. Halloween? So-so

I love Autumn. ❤️ The beautiful colours of the leaves, the fresh, crisp air, the harvest of my favourite root vegetables such as Rutabaga, potatoes, carrots 🥕 beets and Thanksgiving. As well, my birthday is on October 27th. I will be 70.

I love to get big pots of mums. They make me feel SO good! But everything is special about Autumn! Hugs!

DeleteMums showed up at the stores last week. I notice
at a garden center a size choice. The a price range is good. But,
thirty dollars for the largest mums is sad. Thankfully, the small size at the grocery
stores are affordable.

The things that make me happy about autumn are falling leaves, butternut squash soup, and most of all cooler daytime temps. Hope that you are enjoying a nice holiday today.
ReplyDeleteA nice holiday to y’all
DeleteStanding under a large maple tree as the leaves are falling and letting out with a breath saying Ahhh, is a highlight of autumn. I highly recommend it.

Fall is a nice change for most people but we have such a NO summer here that fall feels the same until December.
ReplyDeleteNicole,
DeleteI think it will feel like it’s December sooner this year.

Fall is good for soup and for apples and the colours are often spectacular. Beyond that is a 'meh' season for me. I hate not knowing how to dress in the morning.
ReplyDeleteMaryanne,
DeleteA fall quilted vest helps on chilly mornings that turn warmer as the day goes on.
jackets can get too warm to wear.
