TOP 10 AUTUMN MUST HAVES

Well I live in California.  This is a screen shot from my phone from Friday:

ummmmm…Autumn?

Obviously my list isn’t going to be the same as people who live on the east coast, but I do have a list, based on our current Autumn:

1.  Sunscreen.

2.  Saturdays at the pool with mixed drinks and a cooler of ice with beer.

3.  Dinners at restaurants with outside seating.

4.  Shorts and a tank for my runstreak.

5.  Suntea.

6.  A/C during the day and fans in the bedroom at night.

7.  Hazelnut creamer in our coffee just as a tease.

8.  Green leaf-covered trees.

9.  Flip-flops.

10.  Dreams of seasons.

  1. Great list – and guess what? My A/C is still running as well. That’s right, it’s HOT in Canada and it’s not just me ;)

      I think it IS just you. I’ve BEEN to Canada (east coast) during the fall. It wasn’t HOT.

  2. Sounds wonderful, but I think I would miss the change in seasons. But flip flops to the bus stop would be delightful.

    • Kimberly Pugliano /

      I really wish we had seasons, but I do enjoy always wearing flip-flops.

  3. So to sum up, same as the summer one ;)
    I am kinda happy for you though. And swing by anytime you miss rain and the seasons …

      I’ve heard SO MUCH about your home that I’ve been instructed to go some day. I’m sad my step-dad’s uncle and aunt don’t live there anymore!

  4. That sounds great! Some of that would be perfection right now! But I guess I’d miss the seasons if I lived in California =)

    • Kimberly Pugliano /

      Yeah, that’s the bad part. I’m over the heat, to tell you the truth. This is ridiculous.

  5. The cool nights with temps in the 60s sounds perfect!
    I never cease to be amazed at the differences in weather throughout the world. We may share some of those high temps this week, but it would be atypical.
    I wonder of the fall scents of Scentsy or Yankee Candle smell differently on an 80 degree day.

    • Kimberly Pugliano /

      Funny, the scent I’m warming today actually smells like autumn. It’s like an oxymoron smelling that when it’s 80 degrees and the A/C is running.

  6. Triple digits today and tomorrow. At least you have a/c. It’s gonna be one of those days I consider breastfeeding in the car.

    • Kimberly Pugliano /

      You can breastfeed at my house. You can have the whole downstairs while I work. Or you can go to your parents’ house and be spoiled. hmmmmm…

  7. Love your list. Although I am tired of the heat, I definitely want fall not winter.

    • Kimberly Pugliano /

      Me too. I’ll never forget New England. Even as a kid it had an impact on me. SO PRETTY.

  8. Oh man, you’re making me so homesick!!

  9. A great listicle.

  10. #10 is my favorite! Great list. Enjoy your “season”. Erin

    • Kimberly Pugliano /

      Thanks Erin. I’m trying. I’ve been enjoying it for SO LONG.

  11. Haven’t turned the A/C on in two weeks and last night, we slept with the window open and now I think I’ve caught a damned cold! If it weren’t for the earthquakes, I’d move to California in two seconds.

  12. Great list, especially the last one. As much as I hate winter in Chicago, I just love the seasons.

  13. Well, you totally live in a horrible place. Sunscreen, pool, shorts…say no more.

  14. Don’t feel too sad – I’ll send you a box of snowy slush from my driveway in January. ;)
