- Fall colors: the bursts of color in all trees. How could I live in Florida, where this never happens?
- The light in the afternoon with huge clouds on one side of the sky and sunshine on the other
- Rainy days when you get to curl up with a mug of hot [your choice] and a good book
- Crisp autumn days with bright sun but cold enough temps to finally pull out that fun jacket
- Little kids in pumpkin patches
- Pomegranates
- Stew and other comfort food
- The smell in the air. I can't describe it; I think it's a combination of turned earth, sun, and a hint of cold air
- Pulling out my sweaters even though I know I'll wear them for the next six months
- Football
- Stopping every so often to appreciate all of this; allowing myself some introspective moments
The German in me has come out: Die Frau (translation: The Lady) will post her ramblings, thoughts, and gripes so she won't drive her loving man, supportive family, or amazing friends screaming into the night.

Here's my return comment to you:
The combination of the cold, moist air and the colors of the leaves is my favorite thing about Fall.
Tomorrow I'll do a literary post of some of my favorite Halloween/fright fiction.
Oh, this is totally my time of year, too. I THRIVE in the fall! I love scarves and hats and gloves and jackets (not to be confused with coats, there's a reason i live in the south now) and pumpkins and squashes and pies and apples and crisps and cinnamon on everything and turning leaves and HALLOWEEN (OMG, Halloween, how I love thee) and turkey and holiday decorations....Clearly, I could go on for, like, ever.
