Welcome Fall!


I am a hopeless lover of all things fall: cool weather, colored leaves, high school football, jackets, scarves and new books (with accompanying things to learn!). And nothing announces fall like the return of the Pumpkin Spice latte. This morning, I welcomed autumn with the purchase of my first Pumpkin Spice latte of the season. For you summer-lovers, I'm sorry. I urge you to continue in denial until September 23. For my fellow lovers of autumn, go enjoy the tastes, sensations and colors of fall! They don't last long here in Colorado.

I, myself, am a summer lover. However, I will give it to you fall lovers ... you do have the best warm drinks!!! I love p.s. lattes.

Summer still rules here in the south, but fall is pretty awesome, too. College football has begun (a passion in this region) and harvest season is just around the corner (peanuts, cotton, corn, etc.). I regularly read Boundless and enjoy your articles. I came across your blog today while online and cannot believe that you are single. A beautiful woman who loves the Lord will garner my attention anyday! Keep up the good work!

And I realize I'm luxuriating in fall a bit prematurely...but the weather has been delightfully cool the past few days, and it seemed the most lovely way to start a weekend. :)

Like Ashleigh, our other friend posted about this same drink. So funny! I just tried the Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino (which I'd never had before) and it was very good too!!

I'm with you about fall. I LOVE it. Nothing is better.

I walked into Starbucks on Friday to the delightful surprise of seeing Pumpkin Spice on the menu...my favorite season is just around the corner :-) Although it's still in the 90's in TN i merged the two seasons and enjoyed a tasty Pumpkin Spice Frappacino. YUMMY!
