Last night, I watched You've Got Mail. It never ceases to be as charming to me as the first time I watched it. It's an appropriate film for the season too. It has one of the best Autumn scenes in the movies. This clip misses the above quote, but you still have to love it. It's one of my all time favorite movies, next to While You Were Sleeping. They are classics. Indisputably, two of the best romances ever made in my opinion. I could watch, and watch again, and never tire of them. I use quotes from these movies all the time: "A bouquet of newly sharpened pencils," "These mashed potatoes are so creamy," "Fight, fight, fight," "That caviar is a garnish," "I should have gotten a blue spruce...they're lighter." How these quotes ever really fit into a normal, every day conversation, I have no idea...but in my world they sneak in.
Tonight, I fixed a pot roast, mashed potatoes and gravy, carrots, and corn for TC and the parents. I've been quite domestic lately. Last week I fixed several "fall-ish" dinners (thus fulfilling #5). I also made my first batch of monkey bread. Because of the cinnamon in monkey bread, also feeling I have successfully checked off the #11 MUST: "fall-ish" desserts. I look for simple recipes, and so far everything I have tried has been simple and wonderful! I'll pass the recipes along soon.
This picture is of a Tennessee tree in the Fall. I miss the vibrant colors that go with the changing of seasons there. If you've never seen East Tennessee during the Fall, I would strongly recommend adding it to your bucket list.

I've got an apple cake recipe I'll share. It's de-lish and so fall-ish!
Just one more reason why we're friends - I quote from both of those movies all the time too! (It doesn't matter if they fit into regular conversation - the quotes are always useful.) And I ALWAYS think of that scene when Fall comes. :) Yay for enjoying the season & getting things done on your list - I've enjoyed reading along so far!
