It’s here! Well, almost. Crisp mornings, cozy
sweatshirts, lighting a dangerous and
excessive amount of candles, shameless pastry purchases and lovely fall
gatherings that I rarely get to attend.
Even though the sun is still beating down on South Jersey, my excitement
is very real. Fall mornings are when I am the most relaxed. Here are a few
things I’m looking forward to this fall.

Traveling
This September and October, I’m planning a few day trips and
weekend trips. Fall is mine and Steven’s favorite season. As he is leaving for
bootcamp this coming March, we are making the most of our time and planning
tons of day trips around our area! Also, in October, I’m making a trip to
central Pennsylvania to see one of my good friends. She has a horse and lives
in the woods! It’s like Fall on steroids.

Baking
I’m not a fan of the infamous pumpkin spice latte. However,
I’m an addict when it comes to pumpkin and apple flavored pastries. Steven’s
mother makes this insanely delicious pumpkin roll. She REFUSES to let me take a
look at the recipe! I’ll be working my butt off to replicate it.
·
Fall drinks.
I haven’t taken a single sip of anything fall flavored yet.
The weather is still too warm and it takes away from the nostalgia of fall
flavored drinks!

SHOPPING
Fall is my FAVORITE time to shop. Now that I’m back in
school, I’ve reduced my work schedule at Starbucks, which was a bittersweet
decision. I can’t afford a crazy fall shopping spree. Now that I think of it,
it’s a blessing in disguise.
PS) Next time you’re at Starbucks, ask for a hot chocolate
with a pump of pumkin. If that doesn’t tickle your peach, try a caramel apple
spice! It’s too sweet for me. So I only ask for one pump of the cinnamon syrup.
If you like candy apples, ask them to put a pump of raspberry and classic syrup
in it! (You can also get this in frappucino form) Yum, yum yum.
PPs)I highly recommend you look further into possible
activities and places to visit around your area. Who knew a bunch of activities
and adventures were only a few minutes away?
