     What is your favorite fall drink? Apple cider, of course. Alcoholic? Pumpkinhead beer

    Favorite fall food? Pumpkin pie or pumpkin roll...yummy
    Your go to fall outfit? A hoodie and jeans
    Are you decorating for fall?I'm about to go to the attic and get my fall door wreath out. That's about the extent of my fall decorating. Every year I'd like to buy pumpkins or mums to decorate with outside because they are so festive but I never want to actually spend the money on it. Oh well. Plus we don't even have trick or treating on our street so it's kind of a waste.

    Any plans for the day? Still recuperating from my cold so I might take a nap. That's about the extent of my plans for the day.

    @cinco - Yay for ET tomorrow!!! I'm so excited for you!


    What is your favorite fall drink?
    I'm not sure I have one? I drink a lot of coffee, but that's year round.
    Favorite fall food? Hard to say. I like pumpkin, and I'm enamored with a pumpkin cookie recipe I made last week. I'm making salted caramel snickerdoodles this week, I'm hoping they're good.
    Your go to fall outfit? Jeans, t-shirt, sweater, and boots.
    Are you decorating for fall? Yes! Not yet, though. We move on Friday (to a 2-bedroom apartment! Woo!) and I'll decorate there.
    Any plans for the day? Just packing and cleaning.

  • I'm a little late to the game here.

    What is your favorite fall drink? I don't think I have a drink specific to fall. I drink diet coke, water, champagne, and iced coffee 365 days a year.

    Favorite fall food? Ciiiiider donuts!! And hearty meals like chili.

    Your go to fall outfit? Long sweater, leggings, flats or boots, and a scarf. 

    Are you decorating for fall? I don't buy decorations but I get new Fall Yankee Candles and put out a little bowl of candy corn in the foyer. lol.

    Any plans for the day? It's now 5 so the day is kind of running down but I'm spending my weekly bonus WW points and I'm making a chili pasta bake and cake with white chocolate buttercream frosting with strawberries.

  • Even later to the game than Amanda!
    What is your favorite fall drink? Not sure I really have one. I just love that I need no excuse to enjoy a mug of anything hot (tea, flavored coffee, hot chocolate, etc). I do like cider, though, and I made a kick-ass hot buttered rum cider a couple of years ago; I might need to find that recipe again.

    Favorite fall food? I don't really have any...

    Your go to fall outfit? Leggings or skinnies with boots and a sweater or tank/cardigan combo on top. 

    Are you decorating for fall? Nope, don't really decorate for seasons. I have a couple of Halloween decorations, and I swap out all my hand soaps for fall-scented ones, but that's about it (and I've got a new fall candle this time, too).

    Any plans for the day? Well, I've already worked 2 Bloody Mary promos and done some freelance work, so now I'm probably going to clean around the house and try to relax a little (since heaven forbid DH would have lifted a finger all weekend while I worked my ass off).

    Anniversary 

  • Thanks, everyone! I survived, although I was asked if I was going to do anymore testing. My MIL then proceeded to tell me how SIL's friend went through a few IUIs and then had "this thing where they checked to see if her tubes were blocked, and they were, so they went to IVF." My mouth hit the floor and I said, "Um, her doctor was incredibly irresponsible by giving her meds and doing IUIs before checking to see if her tubes were blocked. All those meds and the procedures were pointless."

  • What is your favorite fall drink? I'm on the PSL bandwagon for sure. Iced or hot. I get less syrup though because sweet isn't really my thing. Hot damn in warm cider is good too.

    Favorite fall food? I agree with Thanksgiving dinner.

    Your go to fall outfit? Jeans and a hoodie or just using a cover up sweater if I'm dressing a little nicer.

    Are you decorating for fall? I was thinking today that I want to put mums and pumpkins on the front porch. I use fall scents year round though.

    Any plans for the day? I grocery shopped, did laundry then watched the Colts win! We are just watching tv now and going to eat soon.
