Fall In Love With The Season

Fall In Love With The Season

Some of the best childhood memories are messy.

 Fall has everyone reminiscing about playing in leaves, the smell of warm cookies, kettle corn and carving pumpkins. Just because we’re getting older doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy some of the activities that made childhood special.

 When work schedules become overwhelming our personal lives can become dull. Take time to enjoy the season and make new memories with loved ones. Throw your own pumpkin carving party, eat too many pumpkin cookies and buy a pumpkin spiced latte.

“Lost time is never found again.” – Benjamin Franklin

Each new season is an opportunity to start fresh. Leaves are falling and the weather is beginning to crisp. Let the cool air revitalize your sense of adventure and creativity. Don’t look up from your desk in December and wonder what happened to 2016.

There is still time to make wonderful memories. Use Grandma’s pumpkin carving designs and delicious pumpkin seed recipes to embrace fall.
