It's still summer around here - figuratively and literally with warm temps and it being before September 21st and all. Though I'm still soaking up all that sweet sunshine, here's a bit of fall and how we do it...
1- Back at the routine
Switching it back to the early morning wake ups, screen time limits, extra curricular and cleaner eating. Summer is fun but routine is awesome also!
2- Fall Produce
We are huge fan of the fall produce. From quashes to pumpkins to all apples available, they are all so yummy. I have so many different recipes, most of them from online. My pumpkin poppers are a big hit in this house. I also make huge batches of healthy butternut squash and pumpkin soup with loads of spicy goodness. I look for all the different types of pumpkins and squash and try my best to make different seasonal recipes- my sausage stuffed acorn squash is also a big hit around here.
3- Cloth Scarves
I use cloth scarves whenever cold- even in the wintertime when most people switch to wool. They're such a fun way to dress up an outfit! Fall is the perfect time to bust them out after their summer hiatus. I start wearing them even before I pull out my jackets with just my tunics.
4- Great prime time TV
Enough said. New seasons of all my favourite shows. This is Us, Grey's Anatomy, DWTS, A Million Little Things-- some wonderful nights ahead.
5- Fall outings
At least once each fall, we do a pumpkin patch where there is usually a fall festival involving some sort of maze, haystack, pumpkin slinging, games etc . We also visit at least one farm with some sort of a petting zoo and of course a bakery. which leads us to....
So.much.fun
6- Apple picking.
So.much.fun
6- Fall Fashions
The cardigans, tunics and blazers are my love language all through spring into summer.
7- A little home hygge with some awesome throws
9- Fallidays!!
Some of my favourite special holidays are in the last half of this year. In October, we have our Canadian Thanksgiving. Then Halloween. Then Divali. Then all the pre-Christmas stuff. SO very special!
10- And then there is some fall decor....
Throw a few pumpkins and darker accents into the mix.
How do you 'fall things up'?
I can't wait to take Serena apple picking while we're in CT next month! It's still summery here too, but I can feel fall in the air if that makes sense especially with the days getting shorter <3
