Top 10 Autumn Must Haves


Link up with Stasha at The good life for Monday Listicles. It's a different topic every week - follow along and join in. Stasha's a great host and always has interesting things for us to make our lists about.


This week's list is 10 Autumn Must Haves. I've been a bit too forthcoming that summer is my favorite season. But if I had to admit it, Autumn comes second. Especially considering that the Pacific Northwest often sees Autumn start with gorgeous weather. This last couple of weeks, as well as the forecast week ahead, are no exception.

These are my must-haves for this lovely season:

1) Apple cider, fresh pressed
2) Pumpkin - bread, lattes, muffins, soup, pie, anything
3) Golden sunshine - there's something about the golden glow of Autumn sunshine that I love
4) A full DVR - all my fav shows started up again
5) Pretty scarves - I love wearing scarves
6) Chili -- homemade, mmmm, with sour cream and shredded cheese
7) Gorgeous colors of Autumn leaves
8) Tea - I really fall off my tea drinking in summer
9) Sweaters
10) Boots

My Autumn must have is pumpkin spiced chai tea from Starbucks! It just tastes like fall.

I love your list. I'm jealous of your fabulous scarf wearing. I've tried and I look like a dweeb. Everyone else looks cool and sophisticated. Ugh. And I'm thankful for the new fall line up too! New Girl is the best show ever; you must check it out if you haven't!

Chili and cider! Yes, I forgot those on my list. How could I????

Stasha said...

You and I were separated at birth. I just know it!

Terri Sonoda said...

Apple cider, chili, and a full DVR. Right there with ya, my friend. Well, in spirit. Drink up! Cheers...

I forgot about tea. I never drink in the summer just in the cooler months.

We have so much in common! (Except for the fact that I have the sweaters and boots and don't get to wear them early enough down here.) ;)

Poppy said...

It has been gorgeous this year! Usually I would list sweaters as one of my favorite things about fall, but I haven't even pulled them out yet!

Cocalores said...

I love the sunshine in fall, too - it's so much prettier than in summer (especially foggy fall mornings, they're the best)!

Stacie @ Snaps and Bits said...

Nice list! You are so right about the light. I notice that the woods are so beautiful (even before the leaves change-it's totally the light!).

Sisterhood of the Sensible Moms said...

I agree with your entire list! (And summer is my favorite season, too.)

I totally agree with your whole list, especially the full dvr I had totally forgotten about that!

A really fun listicle entry.

Seeing as how I've yet to join this decade or the last one, I don't DVR. However, I do eat pumpkin doughnuts and pie, and I plan to make something new with pumpkin later this fall, so there we are kindred!

Ducky said...

Scarves, boots and chili were on my list too!! I lost my list somehow but they were on there!!

JDaniel4's Mom said...

We love cider too. It really is a fall must have.

Babes Mami said...

Love them all! Pumpkin everything here! And I can't wait until it gets below 70 consistently so I can at least pretend to need my cardigan!

Kimberly said...

I love tea...especially when wrapped up in a cozy blanket...and with a slice of pumpkin pie on the table.

AudreyN said...

A full DVR for sure! Snuggling up with a blanket and some warm tea and watching shows! And not feeling guilty about not being outside!

Mama and the City said...

Apple Cider! I love that drink so much. I kind of hate that starbucks don't sell it and instead, they microwave some apple juice. Not the same.

I bet scarves look great on you. You have that scarf-look. lol. I've often wanted to be a scarf person, but I always end up feeling silly. hahaha
