Almost Autumn

So I know Autumn does not begin until September 23rd, but it sure does feel like it here in Chicago. Its a cool 64 degrees here today. Seeing as Fall is one of my favorite seasons, I can't help but get excited for all things Fall. Including pumpkin spice lattes, football games, light jacket weather, color of leaves changing, new tv shows starting (one of my favs coming back is Parenthood!), comfort foods, big comfy scarves and sweaters, and of course boots!

I want to make myself a cute fall wreath and here are a few ideas I have found, which one should I choose?



































I found this yummy recipe for homemade pumpkin spice cream cheese, can't wait to try this!


Ingredients:
- 8oz low fat cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup canned pure pumpkin
- 1 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- dash of salt

Directions: In a large bowl, combine all ingredients and mix until smooth and creamy.

I think my favorite is the green with buttons and flowers! You should have a craft night with some wine and teach your friends how to make these!

Just an idea ;)
