Countdown to Winter

We are 21 days away from winter and I am still sorting through my autumn foliage photos with glassy-eyed amazement. It seems as though it was only yesterday, we were all complaining about the brutal summer heat. Nevertheless, here we are, already stressing about being behind on our holiday shopping and checking the forecast for snow. If you too are mourning the end of this great season, rest assured that you still have time to make all of your autumn dreams comes true. See below for instructions. :)

  1. Have a fall movie marathon by watching some or all of the movies on this list, including my favorite at #2.

  2. Bake a festive pie, crumble, or loaf using plenty of autumn spice. This Gingerbread Pear Loaf Cake sounds delicious!

  3. Go camping! Build a bonfire and roast some marshmallows with friends. Top if off with a pumpkin ale—this one’s my favorite.

  4. Visit your local bookstore and refresh your cool weather reading list. Then, get cozy with a homemade pumpkin spice latte and dive right in.
