Slow Fall!

The fall season has begun, but the weather is still in summer mode in my area. Fall being my favorite season, I am trying to be patient for the changes in the weather since the cold weather season lasts longer here in Michigan. So I’m not trying to rush cold weather, but I am excited for sweater weather and cozy meals. This week’s list comes from a place of expectation and calm. Protecting my peace has been my main focus lately, and music helps keep my mood calm and in a great head space.

Since the summer weather is still holding on, but fall on the horizon, this week’s list kind of fits both seasonal moods well.

Autumn Chill | 9.23.25

Fall is my favorite season! Now that it is finally fall, I can’t wait for the cooler weather, sweaters, and soups. There’s something calming about the crisp mornings and evenings, and the temperate days here in Michigan. Great time for reflection, sitting still, and preparing for the upcoming winter months. Since we started gardening this year, we are looking forward to setting up our garden for fall planting and prepping the beds/pots for next season.
