Fall Survey

This seems appropriate today. It’s a tad bit nippy out there all of a sudden, and I’ve got a ginormous anatomy exam (really, all of them are huge) tomorrow, so that doesn’t allow for much insight to my blog today. I saw this on Brittany’s site (GotheXtraMile) and want to have fun too.

This does not sound pleasant to me.

Apple Picking or Pumpkin Picking

I’ve never been apple picking before, so this one might be a little unfair. But Paul and I are all set to go to the pumpkin patch and I am SO SO excited. So I’m going to have to go with Pumpkins!

Favorite Apple Recipe

The one where I slice it up and bake it in the oven covered with cinnamon. I’ve never really attacked an apple recipe. This year, I’ve got it. And I’m sure you will all be second to hear it, only behind those eating it.

Favorite Pumpkin Recipe

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE pumpkin roll. More than I care to admit. So I’m looking for a good recipe for that currently. I think Paul and I are pretty much masters at Pumpkin Mac and Cheese though. Don’t knock it until you try it, now.

My food photography astounds me. This is a year old though.

Favorite Soup Recipe

My favorite soup is French Onion. That goes and ruins the whole Fall appeal of this survey, now doesn’t it?

Football: On TV or in the stadium?

I would say in the stadium as long as it isn’t too miserable outside and as long as there’s a good cheering section near you. There’s nothing like being at a football game where the fans suck. But TV is a nice alternative if need be.

Now that’s a good cheering section.

Favorite Football Team to cheer for?

Well. Clearly I’m a Temple fan. And I’m a Philly girl and have to go with the Eagles. Too bad both teams cause me heartache and aneurisms.

Daylight Savings Time: Love it or hate it?

Dude, I will get an extra hour of sleep wherever I can.

How do your workouts change during the Fall months?

Running is way less miserable. It’s nice that I don’t have to wait until 10 at night for the heat to break and I also don’t have to get up at 4 am to avoid it. I like being able to run at whatever time I please! I like to do a lot of stuff outside during the Fall, so there’s a lot of built in workouts too! Also dance has started up again, so that takes up 98% of my time.

Any fashion essentials for Fall weather?

I do enjoy a good scarf, I cannot tell a lie.

My #makeupfreemonday last week!

Do your meals change when the weather changes?

They try to get heartier. But I also get busier, so that takes a bit of a toll on them. Have you heard of my new friend the spaghetti squash?

I think this might be the third time I’ve recycled this picture.

Favorite Fall Dessert

PIE. GET IT DONE. Warm, delicious, gooey pie.

Best thing about Fall?

The feeling it gives me. People always say Springtime is the time when everybody is in love, but that beautiful time between summer and winter is full of smiles for me. Stress too, but mostly smiles.

ALSO I am a huge fan of Halloween. And the start of the holiday season in general. It runs from Paul’s birthday (October 29th) to my birthday (February 19th)!

Worst thing about Fall?

Sometimes it thinks it is okay to pretend to be winter. TAKE YOUR TIME, Mother Nature.

Also. Starbucks tends to start stealing all of my paychecks right about now.

Yes, this was back in the days of Tall Pumpkin Spice Lattes.

Best thing that will happen in Fall 2012?

I don’t know!! Check with me when it is over.

What do you like about Fall? Or dislike. But tread lightly if you’re going to tell me you dislike Fall!
