Fall is one of my absolute favorite times of the year. Sweater weather. Hot apple cider. Pumpkin bread. Fall foliage and that crispness of the air. Cozy socks (who am I kidding?! those are year-round staples). Since we won’t be traveling or going out and about as we normally would because of the pandemic, I’ve been more conscientious than ever of making the little things more special. Here are a few of the fall rituals I have in mind for the season.

Not shown: launching into October with a Harry Potter marathon, reading a book on the Salem Witch Trials, and trying my hand at Spiced Pumpkin Oatmeal with warm applesauce.
