changes.


This past Sunday, my husband pointed out that the leaves are changing colors, and I had a freak out moment. I swear every year I am thrown aback by the sudden change in the colors.

Shocked. Excited. Sad. All at once, because...
I love the colors fall bring yet so sad because I always realize it too late,
...which means all the leaves will be on the ground before I get to fully enjoy the colors of fall.

BUT as it gets cold and drab, a few things get me excited about the season...

-lights to light up the night
-all things pumpkin
-smores to warm our bellies
-stripes, prints, and leather oh my!
-cozying up in a blanket with your loved one
-knocking down my pins of cozy foods
-AND taking a trip the NYC for the FIRST time!

To celebrate the season of warmth and the start of completing my pins, on tonight's menu: Beer Braised Chicken from Everyday with Rachel Ray.

What makes you excited for the dark days of winter?
