| I love Oompa Loompa leaves. |
Fall is my favorite time of the year, and October really kicks it off. It probably sounds a little wacky, but I could actually smell October in the air when I woke up this morning. This is mostly because we slept with the windows open last night to lower our electric bill. When I woke up, it was so cold I had to put on pants! I'm very excited about this.
Aside from the onslaught of pants-wearing weather, I love how the colors change in October. The leaves have already started to take on a noticeably red-orange huge in the town I live in. Just a few days ago, a red leaf fell into my hand during my regular walk. I loved it.
Other things I love about October (in no particular order - I don't pick favorites) are:
- Hot coffee
- Scarves
- No air conditioning
- Yummy baked goods
- Halloween
- How no one will question why you have five large bags of assorted chocolate in your home
- Scary movies
- Closed-toe shoes
- Boots!
- The beginning of the winter coat
- The promise of Thanksgiving and Christmas
- Tights (this means you don't have to shave your legs!)
- Holiday decor
- How cute my yellow cat looks when he sits on a balcony of fallen red/orange/yellow leaves
- Fall TV
- Probably 10 million other things
I'm sure it makes me "basic" to enjoy fall so much. But if you're judging me based on a season I prefer, perhaps you should check yourself.
