The last few months have been a whirlwind of travel, and while it’s been fun living a jet-set lifestyle, nothing makes you appreciate your home more than time away.

I think my fall wishlist really reflects the kind of sleepy, time at home I’ve been craving. Here’s it is:

1. Visit an apple orchard.
2. Place mums on my front porch.
3. Roast pumpkin seeds.
4. Drink apple cider.
5. Plant bulbs.
6. Build a fire.
7. Watch black and white movies at home.
8. Make lots of soups and stews.
9. Go on walks around my neighborhood.
10. Reacquaint myself with butternut squash.
11. Paint my nails fall shades.
12. Find riding boots and jeans.
13. Host a cozy dinner for friends.
14. Wear tweed.
15. Perfect my own chili recipe.
16. Try canning some fall goodies.
17. Explore some of my cookbooks.
