Ten Fun Things About Fall (Part 2)

Hello fellow adorers of autumnal awesomeness (and alliteration!), here is part 2 of my list of things I love about my favorite season:

6) Fall Holidays (specifically Halloween and Thanksgiving, but I'm down with Columbus Day too!)

This makes me happy to no end.

Fall contains my 2 FAVORITE holidays!! First, Halloween. It's a holiday dedicated to candy and dressing up. I mean for reals, if that's not reason enough to make fall the best season, I don't know what is. I've had some pretty killer costumes throughout the years, ranging from the supremely girly (I was a bride at age 5, it totally freaked out my kindergarten boyfriend.) to the supremely awesome (I was Kim Kardashian last year complete with really dark eyebrows and fake derriere.). And I eat so much candy during Halloween time that 4 out of 5 dentists agree I might end up with dentures by age 30.
Next, Thanksgiving. I love cooking and I love eating. Thanksgiving is a day where the entire day revolves around FOOD. I get so excited for the impending feast that I purposely fast a little bit in the day or two leading up to it, just so I can cram that much more food into my face and not feel guilty about it on the big day. I mean my version of fasting of course, which is basically cutting out snacks and candy, let's not get crazy people. Plus Thanksgiving means being with family, which I happen to really enjoy and taking naps in full public view with no shame whatsoever. I'm getting so excited just thinking about it, I'm bouncing in my chair.

Ten Fun Things about Fall (Part 1)

Since I'm a fall baby and fall really is my favorite season, I'd like to throw out 10 things I love about this lovely transitional time. I'll also be doing some posts on some of these in more depth because fall is just THAT awesome. So here we go, these are 10 things I LOVE about this time of year:

1. Oktoberfests

Now I've never been to the one in Germany, which I've heard is like the most fun you'll ever have EVER, but lucky for me, there are tons of Oktoberfest-themed festivals all over in honor of Munich's most holy holiday. I've been to 2 so far this fall and they were delightful! Good micro-brew beers, giant soft pretzels and many a person wandering around in lederhosen as a nod to the festival's origins. It's a super fun way to spend a sunny Saturday and it is a quintessentially fall event.
