Hey everyone, hope your week is going as well as mine. First off, FALL IS HERE!!! I used to hate fall when I lived in Chicago because that only meant that winter was just around the corner. Now that I live in the South, I welcome fall with open arms. I absolutely love warm weather but a brisk fall night where I can just wear a hoodie and sit around a bonfire sounds pretty heavenly to me right about now.
Seriously..what's better than hoodie weather, bonfires and FOOTBALL!? That's what I thought..not much...
Fall weather is also very exciting to me because I play soccer on Thursday nights (Remember how we WON the league last season?). Since I'm not in the cardio shape I used to be in high-school, anything sub 90 degrees outside is where it's at. Those are the days I feel like I'm not dying a slow death on the soccer field.
Now that it's getting cooler, I wanted to list a few of my favorite fall drinks (No, I'm not going to be a total "basic" girl here and list everything pumpkin spice flavored..don't worry).
