Fall/Sept Bucket List-Happy Day Fall Has Arrived!

-

 I love when fall arrives.  Even though it will be in the 90's here today in NC, the promise of fall is bright.  Early morning when I walk, Brodie, it has been in the '60s the last few days, and the feeling is glorious.  

I decided to make a list of the things I want to do in Sept this year.  The list is short; that way, I can actually accomplish everything I would like to do.  

My Fall/September Bucket List



Burn a Fall Candle

I picked up a candle at Yankee Candle.  This Candle has a Halloween theme, but it smells like fall to me.  I am burning it now, and the scent is incredible.

Visit an Apple Orchard

Most of the apple orchards in NC are in the mountain areas of NC.  I was able to find one not far from RTP.  It is called Millstone Creek Orchards in Ramseur, NC.  It is an hour from where I live in Cary, NC.
Caleb, Maggie, and I visited this orchard in 2019, and we stopped by again this week.  It is fun with play areas for the kids, apples, delicious cider, baked goods, and more.

Make an Apple Dessert

I have not selected an apple dessert recipe yet.  I am leaning toward an apple pie.

Go To The Zoo

I have been to the zoo a couple of times this year.  I went with Erica, Jane, and Riley last week.  I took Maggie and Caleb yesterday.  I love the NC Zoo.  The zoo is beautiful and expansive.  If you go, wear your walking shoes because it is a long walk between some exhibits.  I personally love the walking.  You get a nice workout and get to see some beautiful animals along the way.






Visit A Farmers Market

I will head over to the State Farmers Market for my visit to a Farmers Market in Raleigh, NC.  I have been there several times, and it is filled with fruits and veggies, and this time of year, there will be apples and pumpkins.

Go On a Hay Ride

The one place I think of for a hayride in the early fall is Phillips Farm in Cary, NC.  It is very close to my home, and they offer many fun activities in the fall.  I will plan to go with my grandkids.  Check the hours before you visit because they are limited to certain days.  They open on Sept 18th, according to their Facebook page.

So there you have it, six ideas for fall.  I hope to accomplish these six fun activities plus others in September.

What is on your bucket list? I would love to know.

Happy travels and adventures, everyone!

I am so glad...fall is nearly here.  It has been a sweltering and humid summer, and yes, it is still that way today, but now that we have hit September, there is hope.   I love fall and winter weather and fall and winter fashion.  With that in mind, I have selected the September outfit I want to recreate.  I found the outfit on Pinterest.  I went to Amazon to see if I could recreate the look and will go into my closet to see if I can come close to creating the outfit.  What is nice about this look is that if it gets too hot outside, you can easily remove the sweater. Here is what I found... 1 -Levi's Women's 314 Shaping Straight Jeans 2- Fossil Women's Jolie Leather Crossbody Purse Handbag for Women 3- Peugeot Women's 14K Gold Plated Tank Leather Dress Watch with Roman Numerals Dial 4- Vepose Women's Ankle Boots Low Heels Chunky Cutout Booties+Perforated Western Shoes 5 -Canaria Italian 10kt Yellow Gold Diamond-Cut Dome Stud Earrings 6- Elesomo Womens Tops Short/Lon

It is Party Time! Let's Plan a Party for July. Let's Have a Teddy Bear Picnic! (I am an Amazon Affiliate, and included in this post are affiliate links.  If you buy anything on Amazon using my links, I get a small percentage of the sale with no added cost to you:-) All of my life, I have heard of a Teddy Bear Picnic.  The thought of having a nice meal with cute teddy bears always intrigued me.  I am going to head to Wikipedia to learn more about exactly what a Teddy Bear Picnic is... History The Teddy bear, affectionally called a Teddie, was invented in the early 20th century in Germany. The Teddy Bear is named after Theodore Roosevelt, also known as Teddy Roosevelt. No one knows the origin of the Teddy Bear Picnic, but there are a couple of thoughts.  One is that in the 1920s, a social worker felt bad for orphaned children and was trying to improve their lives by hosting this picnic. Another thought about the origin is that it is based on a book called The Teddy Bear Picnic, w
