Robin
We’re in New England, so the colors are the biggest standout for fall. But on the food side, I love all the harvest-y flavors, especially spicy mixtures like cinnamon, cocoa powder, and chilies in a hearty chili or stew.
Jenny
I love fall for it’s beautiful colors and smells! There is nothing like crisp, country air with a woodfire going nearby. Add in pumpkin everything and you have the most wonderful season!! 😀

I love the smell of aromatic spices while baking my Fall’s favorites and the colorful leaves twirling in the cool Fall’s breeze.

All the wonderful Squash and Apples!
Bianca
That recipe looks wonderful! I look forward to everything pumpkin!
Karrie
I’ve never had a pumpkin smoothie. I must try this. The recipe looks easy and i have everything on hand.
Rebecca
Not gonna lie, I saw the words “pumpkin spice” and was drawn in. Hook. Line. Aaaaand sinker. Yes, I’m one of /those/. An alert pricking up of the ears, an increased heartbeat, and a frantic turn of the head at the mere mention of the word ‘pumpkin’ is a plight that I must walk with but I’ve made my peace with it. Oh yeah. Several pumpkin spice lattes into the season has done much to quell my insatiable thirst for the orange hued brew. These smoothies tough, look, in all senses, fantastic. I haven’t had the pleasure of partaking in any smoothie drinking lately, owing to the fact that my blender has, after a reasonably good life of service, decided to leave this world earlier in the year. I’ve been looking to replace my old friend ever since, but with so many brands, styles and functions, how is one to choose?? I swear I leave the store more confused than when I walked in. Secretly, I love that this blender comes in purple and already I feel a deep inclination towards it (on top of being doomed to love pumpkin, so too, am I doomed to love all things purple). Even if I do not win this giveaway, I thank you for giving me another option (and a yummy recipe) for when I /do/ finally buy a blender.

Cynthia
What I love most about Fall is the change in weather. It also signifies to me the onset of upcoming holidays that are meant to be spent enjoying friends and family making new memories and reminiscing on the cherished (and/or embarrassing) old ones and what better place to spend it than congregating in the kitchen while enjoying new found and old family recipes.

What do I love most about fall? The abundance of squash, of course! I just love the versatility of pumpkin, butternut squash, kabocha squash, spaghetti squash… ack I could go on forever.

The changing of the leaves! Even though fall comes every year, the reds and oranges of the leaves always find a way to captivate me.

I somehow forgot to mention my favorite things about fall in my last comment!

Paul Gailard
Love pumpkin in everything. Would love to mix up some pumpkin pancakes.
Pamela Tinkle
I am 56 years old and over my lifetime I have owned several different blenders, but to this day do not have one in my household. The other brands do not hold up and are made cheaply. I recently purchased a KitchenAid stand mixer and what a world of difference. If I own another blender it will be a KitchenAid. It has taken me some years to come to the conclusion that you get what you pay for and by all means, KitchenAid is my choice of appliances from this point forward. I would LOVE to add this blender to my new KitchenAid collection, whether it be spring, summer, fall or winter…this blender will get a workout from me!
Mary Purvis
I love the beautiful colors of the fall leaves. Raking leaves in a pile and jumping in them is always a favorite of my kids. I love the smell of a carved pumpkin with a candle inside burning!

I like being able to use my oven in the fall (in summer we have 105-degree temps for 4 months)!
Abigail Pompa
I love warm fall days where you can smell the fallen leaves in the wind. I love looking at the hillsides while the sun set shines on them letting the golden slumbers of the trees glow. I love watching the children jump into piles of leaves they all cooperatively worked so hard to build as large as possible. I love how houses are suddenly starting to become warm and cozy again, especially when the aroma of fresh baked goods fills them.

Anything with pumpkin has to be good. Really like the dip with pumpkin, cream cheese, brown sugar and cinnamon. Love the colors of fall and the smells of fall food cooking.
Heather
I love the cooler weather and awesome fall scents and colors!
Paula @ Vintage Kitchen Notes
A great blender is an amazing addition to a kitchen. I need to make these smoothies! Pumpkin craze is not a thing here, and I don’t even think starbucks has their famous latte. But after baking quite a few things with pumpkin in the past two years, I finally understand why. It’s such an awesome ingredient!
Becky Amy

Hi there, There’s no doubt that your site might be having internet browser compatibility issues.
Whenever I take a look at your site in Safari, it looks fine however, when opening in IE, it’s got some overlapping issues.
I simply wanted to provide you with a quick heads up!
Besides that, fantastic blog!
Anna
The pumpkins!!!! and all the beautiful colors 😀
Claire
Sadly, I’m from Southeast Asia and we don’t have fall, but I’ve seen the beauty of autumn from films and anime I think I’m gonna love it as a whole by the time I experience it!
Liz
Cool weather and sweaters!
Carmen
I love the cooler weather (although it’s a little too cool right now).
Bee
Fall season just makes me think of soups. And pies! For non-food related, I love looking at the different shades of colors on the leaves as they change from bright green to golden tones.
Lora D.
The best thing about fall is fall baking and cooking!
Jesi
Beautiful weather and fall colors here in Oregon.
Margaret
Living in New England the best part of Fall is the beautiful colors! I am a cake designer and today I am working on a birthday cake for a woman celebrating her 80th birthday! Her grand daughter wants a fall deco, but not too garish. I am using a light peach gumpaste for the leaves that I will dust later with color. The roses will be a darker blood orange color. Check out my website!
Anna Johnston
This looks like it is really really REALLY tasty, but I just don’t know if I could get into drinking my pumpkin? Maybe that is because we, well my family don’t generally eat this kind of food. Fall, or Autumn colours are just gorgeous, Im a summer bunny, but I do enjoy the way our city looks this time of year.
