Autumn is Here...

September 24, 2023

Hey guys,

It's offically Autumn!!

How mad is it that last week we was roasting in England and complaining that it was stuffy and then this week it's non-stop raining and it's gone cold that I've already hit the on switch for my heater. Anyway, would we be Brits if we didn't complain most days about the weather haha?! As much as I'm not a cold person weather I do love the Autumn and Winter season - pumpkins, foods such as stews and soups, winter clothes bonfire night, Halloween (if your into it) and Christmas & New Year's festivities. I don't want to mention the dreaded Christmas but here we are...less than a 100 days...

If your looking forward to Autumn and are looking for some plans (whether it's solo, with friends, family, partner etc) get that notebook (or the Notes section on your phone) and jot down some of these activities you can add to your list:

  • Visit a pumpkin patch & do some carving
  • Get some clear cups & glasses and decorate with autumn themes 
  • Walk - That feeling of the leaves falling and stepping on them crunchy leaves
  • Seasonal hot drinks - Pumpkin spiced latte, Hot chocolate etc.
  • Firework display - Get them sparklers out
  • Light autumnal candles
  • Blackpool Illumination lights
  • Bake Halloween goodies - Cookies, Cupcakes etc.
  • Do Halloween crafts
  • Trick or treat (If you have kids)
  • Roast marshmallows/smores on a fire
  • Take photos
  • Apple picking / Apple bobbing
  • Cook seasonal foods - Apple crumble, Scouse (or stew depending where you live), Pumpkin soup, Hotpots, Casserole, etc.
  • Have a bonfire
  • Build an indoor fort 
  • Play board games/jigsaw
  • Autumnal films - Get them winter pjs on, fire lit, your favourite snacks with hot drinks and throw on Halloween films - Whether it's Horrors or Disney-related; some of my favourite are - Hocus Pocus, Halloweentown, Casper, Edward Scissorhands, Bedknobs and Broomsticks 
  • Make an autumnal wreath/garland
  • Decorate your home with some autumnal decor
  • Declutter 
  • Time to get the darker nail polishes and lipsticks out - I'm a sucker for red with purple undertone lipsticks and dark orangey-brown nails,
  • Enjoy the darker mornings on your days off
  • Star gaze
  • Harry Potter Marathon - And if you can go visit Harry Potter World in Watford - Read my Experience here
What are your plans for Autumn?

  1. Love this list of autumn activities! Autumn truly has its own charm, and you've captured it perfectly with these ideas. The pumpkin patch visit and carving, along with baking Halloween goodies, sound like so much fun. And who can resist cozying up with autumnal candles, hot drinks, and a good movie? The Harry Potter marathon idea is fantastic! Thanks for sharing these suggestions to make the most of the season. Can't wait to try them out! 🍂🎃
