Savor the Season: Fall Vibes

View fullsize

Do you have any fall traditions? We usually try to make it to the apple orchard and make a batch of Pumpkin Muffins with Chocolate Chips. (A pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks is my guilty pleasure. Shhh! 🤫 )

And here are a few other inspiring fall favorites—

If you’re in the mood for pumpkin, this Cinnamon Swirl Pumpkin Coffeecake looks amazing! Or if pumpkin isn’t your thing, this Apple Cinnamon Bread looks tasty!

Need a date night idea? Make some Monster Cocktail Stirrers, mix up your favorite cocktail, and then Listen to a Spooky Radio Program. (Or if movies are more your thing, pick one from my sister’s list of Spooky Halloween Movie Favorites.)

It’s not too late to decorate your front door with a Spooky Stick Wreath, or go all out and recreate this fireplace scene—Drilled Galactic Pumpkins.

If you want to get the kids in on the fun, here are several book recommendation lists, or make your family dinners a little bit spooky with a Simple October Tabletop.

• Our Favorite Fall Books for Kids

• Our Favorite Halloween Books for Kids (2022)

• Our Favorite Halloween Kid’s Books (2020)

And since the chilly nights are begging for a warm bowl of soup/stew, you should definitely make The Only Chili Recipe You Will Ever Need, or go for a non-traditional chili approach with One-Pot White Chicken Chili, or our favorite Potato Soup with warm, crusty French bread. Yum!!!
