autumn – Italian Coffee Date

You guys! It’s that time of year again! The best season of all has sprung and I’m not talking about spring!

I know a handful of people who don’t want to believe the temperature has dropped 20°F, and they are holding out hope for a few more days in the sun. Who knows, they might be right! But the wind is blowing, the leaves are falling and as of now, I have officially pulled out my fall decorations and spices. Let’s be honest, I pulled them out last month when I watched a leaf fall from my backyard.

I don’t know what it is about this season. Maybe it’s the fact that I grew up in Alaska where fall hits hard and stays longer. The crisp air, the crunchy leaves, red, orange and yellows surrounding me. The infamous “sweater weather” and “pumpkin spice lattes” might have something to do with it as well!

Mid September through October my poor husband is spent watching reruns of Hocus Pocus, smelling spiced scentsys, and eating pumpkin treats! Sounds like a win to me!

Not only has Fall made its way through my home, it’s hit Morning Light Coffee Roasters too! We broke out our pumpkin sauces, and have started baking! Pumpkin Swiss rolls, Caramel Apple bread, Pumpkin Spice scones! You name it, we can bake it!

Not only do I have the love for pumpkin pastries come fall time, I love the warmth of big sweaters, leggings and boots! Simple yet cute. Of course every girl is dressed darn near the same, but hey! Fall sisters unite!

Pumpkin patches, corn maze, sun flowers, fresh air and Halloween. This season has everything I love and more!

There wasn’t much to this blog other than the excitement of Autumn in my eyes! I figured I’d add a few links to this short but sweet post! A few of my favorite recipes that will bring fall to your home too!

Happy Fall y’all! 🍂
