Falling for Fall

Do you call it Fall or Autumn? I never say Autumn but I like how it sounds. Either way, it’s one of my most favorite times of year.
The only bad thing about Fall is that it means Winter is closer. But, except for the snow/ice and the extremely bitter cold days, I'm learning to appreciate winter a little more.  (Let’s not jump the gun though.)
Not only does Fall mark the return to school, regular, less busy shop hours and an increase in work for me, Halloween and of course Movember just around the corner  it does have a few other merits:
TV  With so many premieres and finales my PVR has never been so full.  (Don't get me started on finales yet though, I am still digesting Dexter and Breaking Bad ending.)
 Pumpkin  I love pumpkin... I love pumpkin lattes, pumpkin muffins, pumpkin cookies, pumpkin carving, pumpkin soup.  If there was a Starbucks out around the bay, I would practically live there.  
 Layers I'm not one for the heat; I get too hot and I have nothing else to take off.  I get told and I can add another layer :)  Vamps, scarfs, sweaters, blankie and cuddling by the fire.
Sights and Sounds the vibrant red, yellow and orange leaves, twigs cracking under foot, the heaviness of my breath on the cold air.
Smells this is a little morbid because everything is dying, but the smells of fall make me want to spend more time outdoors.
Autumn or Fall?  What's your favorite part?

Husband pointed out that I've been a bit of a flake with my blog the past little while (guess that means he does read it) hopefully I have found my way out of my rut now :)  I have missed it  :)
