Outside the leaves are changing (in some places), the weather is getting chilly, the smells are brewing and the sounds are becoming cozier. Fall has come before us and the time to change with Fall is now! Maybe during this season your favorite part is the spookiness of Halloween, the warmth of chai or hot cocoa or just wearing outfits that are warm and cozy. Whatever it is, here are some different drinks, free activities, movies, TV shows, playlists and food that you can enjoy this fall.
Drinks you can enjoy during your fall activities like watching movies, TV shows, or just going for an autumn morning walk include:
Pumpkin Spice Latte
Hot Apple Cider
Sweet Harvest Pumpkin Tea
