first day of fall!

Yesterday while listening to the radio, I was reminded that today is officially the first day of fall - hooray!  I'll be honest: considering that I think it's supposed to hit 90 degrees the next few days in Arlington, it doesn't exactly feel like fall.  But I am excited nonetheless!  I just walked into our break room at work to get my lunch and discovered free food (always a fun thing!) - and even better, that one of the options was a pumpkin muffin - completely appropriate for the first day of fall ;-)

So in the spirit of the new season, here's a list of things I love about the fall:
  • cooler weather
  • changing leaves
  • pumpkins in any form:  pumpkin bread, jack o' lanterns, etc.
  • college football season
  • candy corn & peanuts (a mixture I credit to my years in Indiana - yum!)
  • hot cider
  • jackets & scarves
What would be on your list??
