Welcome to Tuesday's Question!
A day when I get to ask you a question about anything...
"What is your favorite thing about Fall?"
This is a HARD question to answer because there are so many
things that I love about this season, but my favorite has to be...
Pumpkins.
I love pumpkins, so much that we planted them in our garden this spring.
Here are a few of them growing...
Here's one that broke through our "chicken wire" fence and we had to
support or it would have broken off the vine as it grew heavier...
We planted 2 pumpkin plants and 5 pumpkins grew!
Do you see the tall one on the left?
That's the one that tried to break free, but we saved him...
And one even made it to our dinning room...
A few other photos of Fall appearing in our home.
NOT a real pumpkin...
Our living room...
In the kitchen...
One of the BEST things about Fall is eating something
made with PUMPKIN...
Come back tomorrow for a GREAT recipe for pumpkin muffins!
Now, let ME know what is YOUR
favorite thing about Fall!
Enjoy your day!

My favorite thing about fall is the leaves all changing colors! It is so pretty!

I tried to narrow it down to one favorite thing, but have decided that's not possible. I love so many things about the cozy nesting season of fall.
You have done such a nice job of decorating your home. I am most impressed with your pumpkin growing skills.
I tried my hand at that last year. We had one little pumpkin and before I could pick it, something chewed some holes into it. Yours are lovely!

Oh I love everything about FALL!
Especially the cooler temps and colors. Oranges, reds and golds.
Love anything pumpkin too.
Happy Almost Fall

Cool,crisp weather...if we have it! And I love the colors in the trees, too!
Karen says
I love most everything about fall, but pumpkins are one of my favorites, too!
Debbie says
What is NOT to like about the Fall is the question? haha. I love it all. The cooler weather, the rich gorgeous colors, scarecrows and pumpkins, the scents and smells, football games, and EVERYTHING pumpkin to eat or drink...pie, cookies, bars, bread, lattes etc. I could go on, but you get my point. LOVE Fall!

I LOVE orange pumpkins! Just love them and I am waiting for the recipe for the pumpkins muffins.
Catherine says
Dear Lois, I love the fall. It is such a beautiful time of year. The weather cools down and the cooking becomes easier. It is not too hot to turn the oven on.
I love the fact that the holidays are on their way too.
Your home and pumpkins are beautiful. It is so nice to know that you nurtured these little pumpkins and now they are in your home.
Blessings dear friend. Catherine xoxo
Paula says
Your pumpkins are beautiful, Lois! One thing I love about fall is the cool mornings... summer mornings are so humid and sticky. *UGH*
And I also love burning candles this time of year~ especially pumpkin and spice scented ones!
Christine says
Hi Lois! there are too many lovely things about fall but if I must I'd pick the orange red and yellow hues along the hedges and gardens - beautiful handiwork of our wonderful God!
Debra says
Oh man! I love Pumpkins too. We call October pumpkin month and make pumpkin things all month long!
Cheryl @ TFD says
You have a pretty home and I love your fall decor. I love pumpkins, too, but I'd have to say my favorite thing about fall is the colors. Sadly, this year I'm sure that our trees will just go straight to brown since we're in the drought area. I'm planning to get out my fall things in the next few days. It's time!
Have a wonderful day!
Abby Raines says
Like you, love pumpkins too! You've got a lovely home with perfect setting for the fall.

I'm going to have to name at least 3, Lois! 🙂 Love the pumpkins! They're the first thing I pick up (we didn't grow any), spicy candles burning in my home, and all the colors of fall! I just love those things because they're so cozy and make me feel like nesting! 🙂
Enjoy your day, my friend!

Hi Lois,
I would have to say pumpkins too.
I just love the way they look and it is the only time you get to see them,
plus I love to eat things with pumpkin.........pumpkin pie, pumpkin butter, pumpkin muffins or bars.
It is just such a wonderful change of pace to see and eat them.
and I have pumpkins all over too,
mine are faux pumpkins tho!
So cool you have some that you actually grew........how fun!!
Hope all is well at your pumpkin hideout!! lol
Love and Blessings, Nellie
Maple Lane says
Love your pumpkins! Your home looks gorgeous.
I will have to choose the cool autumn breeze....we have enjoyed opening up our windows the last few days!
Angie says
My favorite thing(s) about fall is the cooler weather, vibrant colors, bonfires, apple cider, soups, long sleeves,and all the yummies we get to eat. I can't wait to see that recipe tomorrow.
Vee says
I don't think pumpkins are my favorite thing about fall, though I like them a lot. You may have inspired me to grow some next year. I think I'm giving up on tomatoes.
Till Next Time says
I LOVE your decorations...especially your table one.
I love that I can wear hoodies. I love the fact I can cook and bake to my hearts content and not die of heat stroke. LOL
Pumpkin Cranberry muffins are my favorite to make.
Marlys-thisandthat says
The best thing about fall is the fall colours... I love the trees turning colours.. But I do enjoy pumpkins. Love how you decorated your house. I still have to get mine done but I usually try to get it done for Canadian Thanksgiving, so start sometime between the first day of fall and the first Monday in October.
