It's Tuesday, but I'm going to cheat and back-date this post for yesterday.  It was a holiday, after all!   Once again, Amber is hosting Friend Makin Monday and this week's assignment is to share our favorite things about fall.  I'm sure I've done this before because fall is my favorite season in so many ways; it's always nice to do a refresher.  So, here goes ...

I love the colors associated with fall - deep reds, oranges and golds, browns and various earthy shades of green.  I guess I'm just an "earth tones" kind of gal. 

I love the scents associated with  fall - things like baked apples, pumpkin pie, all that yummy baked goods stuff - these are my candle scents of choice.

I love Thanksgiving - it's one of my favorite holidays.

I love the cooler temperatures and the opportunity to put on jeans and long-sleeved shirts. 

Going along with the colors, I love to see the changing leaves (though I hate it when they all fall off and the trees are bare).

This year, I'll look forward to a "fire" burning in our pellet stove.  All summer long it looks rather "boring" - it's just taking up space and not really serving a purpose.

I like decorating the house with pumpkins and leaves. 

Yep, I love fall!
