The 2019 Fall Bucket List

Can you believe it’s the third week of October already? I’m probably a little late to the party, but I am excited to share with you the 2019 Fall Bucket List today!

I am a lover of these types of posts. For as long as I can remember, I’ve read multiple Fall Bucket Lists from different bloggers. It’s hard to believe I’m finally creating my own now!

I hope you enjoy it and would love to know what’s on your Fall Bucket List!

PIN FOR LATER!

The 2019 Fall Bucket List

 

What’s your favorite thing about Fall?

 

The crisp air, the spooky movies, pumpkin spice everything? Let me know in the comments!

 

The 2019 Fall Bucket List

 

Drink Warm Apple Cider

 

I am obsessed with Tim Horton’s Warm Apple Cider! I usually get the original, but I tried the supreme this year that comes with whipped cream and caramel drizzle. It is so good!

 

Try a Pumpkin Cold Brew

 

If you’ve been following my blog, you know I’ve already tried the pumpkin cream cold brew! I had to throw this on here for those of you who still haven’t tried it. It’s even better than the PSL!

 

Watch Hocus Pocus

 

My very favorite Halloween movie to watch when it gets this time of year. I also really love Halloweentown, too! You can insert your favorite Fall/Halloween movie here if you’re not a fan of the Sanderson sisters. šŸ™‚

 

Bake Sweet Treats

 

This is the beginning for Holiday baking, friends! I love baking all sorts of sweet treats, especially pumpkin ones! Bring on the pumpkin logs, brown butter chocolate chip cookies, and brownies.

 

Carve a Pumpkin

 

Do you carve a pumpkin each year? I admit, it’s been awhile since I’ve done this. I’ve never been very good at it, but it was a favorite from my childhood. A fun alternative would be to paint a pumpkin, or stencil in the first letter of your last name.

 

Watch Football Games

 

The perfect time for curling up on the couch, having delicious appetizers from the air fryer, and watching my favorite Buckeyes.

 

Make a Pot of Soup

 

With the crisp air, a warm cup of soup and a cozy blanket makes for a great evening. Some of my favorites are chili, potato soup and my sweet hubby’s vegetable soup. The crockpot is my best friend this time of year!

 

Make a Fall Wreath

 

I love making wreaths! Creating your own Fall wreath is a fun DIY project, and something you can keep for years to come.

 

Curl Up By The Fire

 

Whether it’s by a bonfire with a group of friends or a fireplace inside your living room, curling up by the fire is an awesome thing to do.

 

Make S’mores

 

I eat s’mores all year long…however, isn’t this the time of year that it’s really meant for? šŸ˜› I’ve recently been making my s’mores in my new air fryer and they are the best!!

 

Visit the Pumpkin Patch

 

This is such a fun family activity! I love just looking at the beautiful scenery and picking out a couple of pumpkins to display on our porch.

 

Enjoy a Harry Potter Marathon

 

If I’m being honest, anytime is a good time for a Harry Potter marathon! This just seemed like a great excuse to watch more HP!

    I think I’ve already watched Hocus Pocus about 20 times! I’ve been wanting to watch Halloweentown which I may do tonight! I’m going to an apple orchard this weekend for some fall fun, and I’m so excited!

🄣 Chicken Tortilla Soup — Stovetop
Ā 
Ingredients
• 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts (cooked — diced or shredded)
• ½ cup diced yellow onion
• 1 tsp minced garlic
• 1 (15 oz) can chicken broth
• 1 cup water
• 1 (15 oz) can corn — undrained
• 1 (10 oz) can original Rotel — undrained
• 1 (10 oz) can enchilada sauce
• 1 envelope taco seasoning
• ½ tsp chili powder
Ā 
Directions
Add everything to a pot on the stove, mix well, and let simmer for 1 hour. The flavor gets even better the longer it sits, but since everything’s already cooked, it’s ready once heated through!
Ā 
Top with tortilla strips, cheese, sour cream, or whatever your heart desires. 🤤 I love to serve this soup with cheesy garlic bread!

What’s your go-to winter comfort meal?
