Fall is my FAV season of the year. For one . . . it means hot apple cider. I loooove hot apple cider. The real stuff, not the out of a can wannabe. In addition to the delicious hot beverage, the leaves are changing, I get to wear my comfy, warm sweaters and scarves and there’s a chill in the air that screams “snuggle” weather.
It doesn’t matter if you’re snuggling up with a cozy blanket, a good book, and a cup-o-joe or if you’re snuggling up with Joe himself. Though, I’m sure most of us would prefer to combine all of the above, but we take what we can get, right? So . . . for those of us who don’t have a “Joe” in our life . . . we are going to settle for the good book and whatever hunky Joe-hero we can get tangled up with in our minds. (Which are sometimes the best kind.)
Some of my favorite Joe-heroes are the ones who make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside . . . like my sweaters and blankets. But there are also those who keep it so hot you need to turn the thermostat down a few degrees. I, for one, prefer the combination of the two. It makes the chill in the air a little less noticeable.

Football & Pumpkin pie! Yum. (yes, yum to the football players too...lol)
DeleteI love the burst of colors! The fall earth tone colors are very festive and beautiful. I am lucky to live where you can see the seasons change.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, at this moment I can’t recall where autumn was a major focus of a story. It has no drama that stands out really. I love reading any time so the season doesn’t matter.
Thanks for the opportunity to share and know you better. Take care.
