Beautifully put, dear Janey. November really is an awesome amalgamation of fall and winter, blending the two like ingredients in a hearty and warming seasonal dish that beckons to our souls.

As they so often do, this November whipped by at the speed of light. If possible, it almost felt faster than October. Wintry though our landscape is (and has been for a few weeks now), I’m still feeling quite autumnal and will keep our pumpkins out a wee bit longer. They don’t mind, I’m sure, sharing space for a while with Christmas and Yule decorations.

Many hugs & the happiest of wishes for a beautiful remainder of fall.

How right you are, dear Sanne. It is a something of a “breather” month – and a welcome one at that. October is my fave month of the year and I adore December, too, but I think I might get a bit worn down were it not for the calm, cold air fuelled respite of November.

It’s beautiful that you have St. Martin’s Day in Denmark. It sounds like such a lovely and meaningful celebration. And, I should add, as someone who adores duck (it’s my favourite type of poultry to eat), the menu couldn’t appeal to me more.

I hope dearly that you had a fun-filled, cheerful, and thoroughly awesome birthday celebration. Though I can’t say for certain when exactly it will get in the mail, please know that I have a little b-day parcel ready to go for you (complete with a handmade card) and that whenever it is able to zip off to you, I hope the gifts it houses will help to keep the festive cheer of your special day going all the longer.

Oodles of hugs & happy start of December wishes,
♥ Autumn

*PS* I totally did! You know me so well. 😊

What a marvelous month to pick as your absolute favourite, my sweet friend. It ranks high up there for me as well and is a chapter of the year that, joyfully, I find myself falling ever more in love with autumn.

I hope that your treasured month was extra lovely and enjoyable this time around, and that it has lead to a December that will no less positive and merry.

Hello lovely Zania, thank you very much for your terrific comment. It’s a joy to connect with you here. ❤️

While fall does top out as my favourite season, summer holds a very special place in my heart as well – especially since it was the season into which I was born (you know, about a millennia ago now 😂).

Living in a country where winter weather often consumes 6 – 7+ months of the year and both spring and fall are scarcely longer than the duration of a single breath, summer is a welcome and long pined for annual visitor, and even when the heat drains me faster than a bathtub, I cannot help but love the toastiest chapter of the year.

I’m sorry that the Guy Fawkes celebrations were cancelled (understandably) this year. While that’s not an event that is usually observed here in Canada, I got a sense of it via Bonfire Night during the years (eons ago) when I lived in Ireland.

Perhaps next November, if we can find a place to safely light one in, we’ll have a bonfire of our own on the same night to join in spirit with those on the other side of the pond.

Thank you again, my dear. May you have a thoroughly wonderful, safe, and abundantly blessed tail end of the year. 🎄

😄 Very true! The sheer fact that it is a month comprised solely of autumn makes it a massive winner in my books, too.

I hope that the 11th month of the year was sweet-as-pumpkin-pie to you, dear Vicki, and that you have a cozy, awesome and very festive December. 🎄

Thank you very much, sweet Ivana. It’s always a joy to connect with fellow “falloholics”. 😃

I’m delighted to see that this post was well received and enjoyed by others. Perhaps it could stand as the first in an ongoing series of entries looking at various reasons (30 or 31 would be natural choices in this instance) to love each month. Something for me to contemplate doing for sure. 🎃

May you have a cozy, safe, and thoroughly lovely end of the season.

Thank you very much, lovely lady. I too am especially drawn to #24 – perhaps more so this year than ever. We have all collectively carried so much with us and endured a great deal in the past 11 months that we are well served to part ways with, whenever possible. Not forget or ignore, but simply to not permit to have a (potential) stranglehold on us as we gear up to face whatever life holds in store for us in 2021. 🍁

May you have a cozy, wonderful, safe and happy tail end of this season, dear Donna.

♥ Autumn
