Today is the first Monday of the month, so I am linking up with The Blended Blog, for their monthly link up, The Blended Blog Asks. And this month… it’s all about fall y’all!
1. Favorite Fall Color?
How on earth am I supposed to choose just one?! I love living in Michigan as we really experience such a beautiful Fall. The leaves have already started changing and they are so pretty.
2. Apple Cider Hot or Cold?
Sorry…. I can’t choose just one. When I’m at the orchard, it’s always got to be cold. But at home, I love making a mulled cider. So very tasty! Last year I actually made this mulled apple cider sangria, and I’m totally sad I can’t try it again this year.
3. Caramel Apple, yes or no?
Meh. I’m kinda indifferent. I do like dipping apple slices in salted caramel sauce though.
4. Apple Cider Doughnut or Pumpkin Doughnut?
Ummm, apple cider doughnut all the way. In fact I am quite picky about the apple cider donuts I do get. I have tried them from seven different places, and I have my top three. My favorite will always be Erwin’s. There is just something about those warm doughnuts after apple picking. And if they aren’t coated in cinnamon and sugar, they are not a cider mill doughnut. 😉
5. Long or Short Cardigan
Now that fall is here, I really want to wear leggings all the time. I like to have my tush covered though, and long cardigans get that job done. Plus I don’t need to buy maternity ones, since I’d just wear a shirt under, and leave them open,
6. Favorite Football or Fall Party Food
Nachos! Although we eat nachos year round, there is just something about eating them while watching a game.
7. Orange or White Pumpkins?
Both are great! I’d actually really love to get some for our porch, but I usually wait a little closer to Halloween so we can carve them too.
8. Hayride or Bonfire?
I love both, although a hayride is a little less scary with two kids to watch. 😉 This week we are actually going to our annual hayride and bonfire with my mom’s club. I am so excited as it is a blast every year.
This is from last year (and yes I did share this photo last week)
9. Favorite Fall Baked Good?
Well after a cider mill doughnut anything with salted caramel! I made these salted caramel brownies and they were so tasty!
10. Most Anticipated Fall Activity
If you read my blog at all then you know it’s going to the apple orchard! We’ve been going to the same orchard since I was a child, and I love the tradition. There is just something about picking apples fresh off the tree. My favorite apples are Empire. They are crunch and tart. I usually make apple sauce, but knew it wasn’t going to happen this year with the move, and pregnancy. We did make an apple pie though, and I have plans for a few more apple treats.
2017
2018 I’m hoping to keep this picture tradition going, it’s too bad I didn’t start it until 2017. Don’t worry though, I have plenty of pictures from the orchard from the years past.
