I love how we as a culture have agreed that fall is the official time to rewatch the extended trilogy of Lord of the Rings. So many posts on so many timelines about this exact subject. It warms my little nerd heart.

Some cool pumpkins I got🎃🙌

More pumpkin pictures because I am obsessed 🧡

am i depressed or do i just need to buy one of those 12 foot tall skeletons?

Pumpkin, do you have any coziness tips/things you do for fall? Or just in general?

Thanks ♥️

Hi, Toastie! I celebrate fall in the most clichéd of ways: having strong opinions about which pumpkin spice things are properly pumpkin spicy and delicious (Special K cereal, yes; Cheerios, no, the Pumpkin Spice ones taste like Red Hots candy), watching fall-themed ambience videos from people like AutumnCozy, and far too often, by deciding to dye my hair red around my birthday in October, with tragic results. I know it has a 58% chance of being tragic, I do it anyway. To be fair, fall exists mostly as a beloved concept in my head. I'm from a part of the American south that doesn't typically get the good fall; there's no beautiful changing of leaves to shades of orange and gold or crisp, lovely weather, etc. We're a humid, gator-filled swamp until we get one cool-ish week in late November, then march straight into dead-grass brown winter. So, it's all store-bought fall for me. I say fuck it and start using my novelty witch mugs in late August. But as far as coziness goes, I recommend Katie Vaz's Make Yourself Cozy book, buying a lotion warmer (I have the Conair True Glow and love it), Isabel Gillies' similarly good guide, Cozy, warming your blankets in the dryer before bed (if you have the ability, that one's tricky), fuzzy socks, and staring at the cozy reddit thread where someone did this to their living room. So pretty! This is just one corner of that person's miraculous living room:

I love how the vine covering the walls looks during the fall.

October Dalhia 🧡 perfect color for fall ✨️ 🍁🎃

For November I am going to highlight a different tea each day.

Day 14

For Tuesdays I am doing a new to me tea. This time it is Trader Joe's Harvest Blend Herbal Tea. I like it a lot. It is very reminiscent of a spiced hot apple cider.

It’s fall, y’all! 🍁
