Nights are getting chillier, sunsets are starting sooner. Fall is in the air! Even here in California where it's usually warm until mid-October, I'm feeling a bit of that autumn chill. The Pumpkin Spice Cravings are REAL y'all!
With wedding planning and garden reaping and back to school music teaching, life is starting to feel hectic again! I am being very good this year about keeping some sanity in my schedule and making sure things don't get too overwhelming. I know that eventually more projects will come along and take up more of my time but for now, I'm keeping sane. I'm preparing home-made dinners. I'm sitting down for a breakfast or lunch everyday (that's significant for me)!
This fall, I'm looking forward to some fresh apple cider, some pumpkin pie, and maybe even a roasted chicken or turkey with homemade stuffing (my favorite fall dish), and some good old fashioned chili. What I need to watch carefully this season is whether I am keeping up with the good choices I've been making after Whole30 and carrying on with a healthier lifestyle.
I feel like I fell back into a bad habit of drinking a glass of wine every night, so I have cut that out for the week. We also went back to eating rice, which I am okay with because I need a hiatus from Cauliflower Rice FOR SURE. While the weather starts to turn colder, I crave heartier foods. I need some ideas for filling, hearty meals that are either Paleo or Whole30 compliant so as to not throw myself back into my old cooking habits.
Anyone else feel the season change? Are you ready?
