Autumn’s Arriving and I Couldn’t Be More Excited

I’m allowing myself to fully devolve into a basic white girl for this one. There will be an appreciation for pumpkin spice, big sweaters, and vanilla lattes, so be warned. If I owned a pair of Uggs, they’d probably be mentioned too. 

So, now since that’s out of the way, let’s get talking SPOOKY SEASON.

The chill breeze in the air, the subtle scent of autumn baked goods, and the hidden unshaved legs of women everywhere give the season such a joyful and chill vibe– one I look forward to every year. Walmart and other superstores have started bringing out their Halloween decorations, and my wallet’s getting skinnier by the second. My shopping cart’s constantly full of little pumpkin and cinnamon apple candles with costume accessories littered over them. Sweater weather is in full swing, and you bet I’m getting ready for it. Knit sweaters and corduroy pants are all I’m gonna be wearing, baby. Time to crack open my dark lipstick and a jug of apple cider because I’ve been waiting for this for ages.

Halloween has been my favorite holiday for most of my life, as I always loved to dress up in costumes and watch the Halloween specials on TV. Even today, I have a personal tradition of watching Cartoon Network’s Over the Garden Wall every October that’s lasted for a few years now. My fingers are itching to start carving pumpkins, brew pumpkin spice coffee, and stitch together costumes to wear. 

Of course, things are definitely going to be different now with Covid-19 knocking on everyone’s doors, but the spirit of autumn and Halloween will live on! I am certain of it. So go out there and get your vanilla lattes and eat discounted chocolate; you deserve it!
