There are many things you can do with them.<br />3) Cold Nights. I sleep better when it's cold outside. Theres nothing better than to cuddle in a warm bed in a cold room.<br />4) Soups.

1. Autumn hi...I love Autumn - my favorite season! <br />1. Autumn hiking - the colors, the crunch of frosty leaves underfoot, the smell of dying foliage and high-bush cranberries, dusting of snow later in the season....<br />2. Hot drinks - spiced cider and spiked cocoa<br />3. More time to read, especially my annual reading of Poe’s complete works in October. <br />4. Fall foods - squashes, sweet potatoes, apples, cranberries in all their sweet and savory dishes. And oh, the spices!<br />5. Sweaters and more sweaters layered over and under everything!Arielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07740718965310051543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1411894864312049426.post-20073317681885213532017-09-23T02:49:29.639-07:002017-09-23T02:49:29.639-07:00Also hubby claims he finally gets to sleep better ...Also hubby claims he finally gets to sleep better now when it's autumn. That's due to dark nights. He has trouble sleeping during the summertime because of the light, "nightless" nights.<br /><br />1. Big, warm scarfs. Woolen socks. Mittens.<br /><br />2. Lanterns, candles, fireplace. Soft, live glow of fire and flame.<br /><br />3. Tea, hot coco, mulled wine.<br /><br />4. Squirreling away as much berries as possible: strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, sea-buckthorns, cherries, blackcurrants, redcurrants, cloudberries, rowan berries... :-)<br /><br />5. Watching how nature changes its color step by step. Currently only the birch trees have started to turn bright yellow, but it won't be long before other trees follow.Johanna Ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12559901333247490554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1411894864312049426.post-29745887459272502692017-09-22T20:00:31.594-07:002017-09-22T20:00:31.594-07:00Ohh Autumn!

Five th...Love that cover*.* (I'm in otaku-mode)<br />Five things I love about autumn<br />1) The end of summer. Finally. I don't like summer. Too hot, too sunny, mosquitos, headaches. I'm more stressed and unhappy during the summer months. So, welcome autumn! The air is cooler, the sky gray-er, I can wear coats, and jumpers, and scarves, and worm hats. Aaah. Joy. <br />2) The smells. Smell of fallen leaves - love it - smell of damp earth, smell of wood ready to be stored for the fireplace, smell of "mosto", pressed grapes left to rest in the barrels to become wine, smell of fog - I love the fog - smell of roasted chestnuts that warm up your hands through the paper bags they're sold in. <br />3) Start of the Ice Skating season! And this is also Olympic year. Super excited. <br />4) Well, the colours, of course. The reds and oranges and yellows and browns. They have something magical.<br />5) Snow time is getting closer. Yay! (Yes, it's snow, not show ;-)) Here actually it's already started, but just few flakes. I can't wait for the real one!<br />And then, it's almost Christmas season, my absolute favourite. But this is the sixth thing... Oops. Crisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1411894864312049426.post-20263747440498635402017-09-22T19:25:28.100-07:002017-09-22T19:25:28.100-07:001.

And 5) It means it's Halloween time, and almost Christmas time!!

It has front pockets in which I can store useful things like Kleenex and chapstick.<br /><br />2) It means my vacation days are almost here<br /><br />3) Jonathan apples. They are seriously the best and I only ever see them sold briefly in the fall.<br /><br />4) It's getting dark earlier so it feels like I'm getting more nighttime reading done.<br /><br />5) The SMELL of fall. That cool,crisp air mixed with the scent of bonfires.Amy Schafferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15280373838479929264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1411894864312049426.post-7943571066139470352017-09-22T12:20:40.821-07:002017-09-22T12:20:40.821-07:00I love autumn.

I'm a sucker for the color changes and the scent of the autumn breeze.<br />3. Football, baby!<br />4. Fire pit season. This is the only time of year, you will catch me outside enjoying one.<br />5.

Here in Southeast Alaska, it's green or brown with one wind storm, trees that do have leaves lose them very quickly. <br />2.The longer nights, where the days have only 5 hours of daylight<br />3. The wood stove, there isn nothing better than heating the house with wood and watching the flames dance.<br />4. Halloween, this year I'm hoping for less rain and using our fire pit. I want to wrap up in a blanket and watch the stars as I roast marshmallows <br />5.

Honestly, I love the lazy days of summer but there's something wonderful about getting my life back after Labor Day.<br />2. Taking the dogs for walks in the beautiful Long Island weather. Not too hot, not too cold (when we aren't dodging the wind and the rain - but that can be kind of nice too).<br />3. Anticipating Halloween and Thanksgiving - two of my favorite holidays, plus my brother comes from Maine to visit every year after his harvest and I haven't seen him since May.<br />4. Tucking away my summer clothes and pulling out all those comfy sweats and cords and bulky sweaters.<br />5. Having more time to READ! All the things I love to do in the summer: beach, tennis, golf are finished so I can be lazy and (if I'm lucky) maybe read a bit in my hammock.<br />Happy Autumn!Triohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17612650650898239392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1411894864312049426.post-16969945902718302742017-09-22T09:15:19.265-07:002017-09-22T09:15:19.265-07:001.

It's either hot or cold. But I do love fall. So mine is kind of a combo of the north and south.<br />1. Here in the south, the humidity starts to drop in autumn. The days stay warm enough to swim but you don't feel like you're trying to breathe under water.<br />2. The crunch of leaves and the smell that comes with the fallen leaves.<br />3. The colors in the hills of Ohio. It all seems so brilliant. Reds, Golds and Yellows more vibrant that anything I've ever seen.<br />4. The smell of wood smoke in the air. We don't have too many nights that it's cool enough for a fire, but I love the smell.<br />5. Sitting outside around a fire and singing with friends. The hush that seems surround us as we share in the camaraderie that a fire instills.Marilynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06860058055852905632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1411894864312049426.post-92059243686738879702017-09-22T02:07:13.460-07:002017-09-22T02:07:13.460-07:00Five things I like about autumn:

Also, when it's summer there's always a nagging feeling I should be out "enjoying the weather", even though I have terrible hay fever and the sun has a mission to destroy me.<br />2. Boots. Best footwear invention ever, but you can't wear them in the summer without getting (a) comments about sweaty feet and (b) actual sweaty feet, which is worse.<br />3. Colours. Every September I get to renew my love affair with burgundy (the colour, not the wine. Okay, the wine as well).<br />4. The garden finally stops growing, and I can retire my machete for another year.<br />5. It's the start of the year. No, bear with me: it's the start of the *academic* year, which means my writers' group returns from the summer break, and all sorts of interesting courses start up. January is a rubbish time to try to strike out in a new direction - it's dark and grim and you're suffering the post-Christmas hangover, not to mention the credit card bills. For me, like Harry Potter, the new year starts on September 1st. :)JL Merrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15757616137877434008noreply@blogger.com
