Today is officially the first day of fall.

As much as I love the summer sunshine, and everything outdoors, there is something special about fall! The need for layers of clothing, the turning leaves starting to fall to the ground, chai tea from Starbucks, and the shorter days and longer nights. The last few days have been hot and steamy around here, and today Mother Nature decided to bring the fall temps. It’s rainy, cold, and the leaves are falling, and it just feels like a fall day!

Here are some things I am looking forward to this fall…

eating all things comforting, with a healthy twist.
drinking my favorite Starbucks chai tea latte.
practicing kindness, patience, and selflessness.
continuing to workout or just move my body.
wearing cozy hoodies and comfy pants.
cooking more dinners at home.

Oh, Fall, I’m happy you’re here.
