Re: Beautiful fall day POLL
1. What is your favorite kind of apple to eat? Why? (If it is an unusual one, where can we find it if we want to try it?) Honey Crisp and Braeburn. I want to try the new Sweet Tango or Zest Star, but can't find them
2. What one fall activity are you looking forward to? Our anniversary! We are planning on going to St Croix Winery and long drives to look at the fall colors.
3. What was your favorite halloween costume as a kid? I had this old BM dress from one of my mom's friends. I turned it into a priness, a fairy, a fairy princess many years over until I grew too tall for it.
4. What is your best fall wardrobe item? Sweater and Uggs with jeans
5. Are you a: pumpkin carving master, simple shapes carver, or haven't carved a pumpkin in years? I haven't carved in years, but I used to be a master. We're giving it a try this year.

1. What is your favorite kind of apple to eat? Why? (If it is an unusual one, where can we find it if we want to try it?) Braeburn, honeycrisp or golden delicious. I like sweet apples. I even bake with honeycrisp apples, although they're usually suggested as snacking apples not baking apples.
2. What one fall activity are you looking forward to? Walks at Lebanon Hills when the leaves are changing color.
3. What was your favorite halloween costume as a kid? I was never into Halloween, even as a kid. I think the last year I wore a costume was when I was 8. I guess my favorite costume was the Raggedy Ann costume my mom made when I was 5. My little brother had a matching Raggedy Andy costume.
4. What is your best fall wardrobe item? Warm, cuddly sweaters.
5. Are you a: pumpkin carving master, simple shapes carver, or haven't carved a pumpkin in years? I'm definitely not a carving master. I usually paint pumpkins instead, I'm much better at painting than carving.

3. What was your favorite halloween costume as a kid? I haven't had a costume since I was like 4. I was cookie monster, my cousin K was Big Bird and M was grover.
4. What is your best fall wardrobe item? Turtlenecks with cord jackets or jean jackets and scarves. {heart}
5. Are you a: pumpkin carving master, simple shapes carver, or haven't carved a pumpkin in years? Haven't carved a pumpkin in years. We may this year if we can find them cause we're in a high-traffic trick or treating neighborhood. Last year we were at a concert, but this year we'll be home.
