Happy Fall Ya'll!

It is finally here! Today was the first day of FALL! Living in Mississippi, you sure would not know it since it was still 94 degrees today! I love the Fall, and will be quite happy to say goodbye to these hot summer days. Oh, how I long to sit on the porch at Square Books balcony with the cool breeze blowing while I enjoy a cup of coffee!

Here are some of my favorite things about this season:

• PUMPKINS...you can probably tell by these pictures that I love pumpkins. I love to decorate with them, especially the white ones!
• SEC Football...not loving it so much this season, those poor Rebels. Guess the old saying rings true, "We may not win every game, but we never lose a party!"
• State Fairs...I grew up at the MS State Fair and have such fond memories of going to the fair each year.
• Pumpkin Spice Lattes...Starbucks has my favorite, but here in Oxford I have to settle for one at High Point.
• The leaves changing color...usually during the fall I go to visit my sister in Louisville, KY and I love the drive from Nashville to Louisville. All the different shades of red, orange, and yellow are just stunning.
• Halloween...even though I no longer dress up, I still love this holiday! How can one turn down all that candy!
• Anything flavored pumpkin, but particularly Pumpkin Pie Spice Muffins. If you would like the recipe click here.
• Mums...I love to decorate with these too!
• Mistletoe Market...my mom and I have attended this even since I was a little girl, and she would check my sister and I out of school for the day. I still love shopping all the booths, and sampling the food!
• Boots, Jackets, and Scarves! What girl doesn't love to accessorize?!?!

Hope you enjoy the Fall!
