There are so many things to love about Autumn. Where do I begin? Well, the first thing that comes to mind is the beautiful fall colors.

Look at the whole entire 12 months of the year. How many do we get to see brilliant golds, reds, yellows, and browns in the trees? Probably about 2-3 months depending on where you live and how the weather plays out. Here are some links that can help track how far along the fall colors are coming:

Weather Channel's Fall Foliage Map *Doesn't start tracking fall foliage until mid-September 2012*

The Foliage Network *Have started tracking foliage since 9/1/12*

The next thing that comes to mind is hot chocolate.....with a twist! If you have any latino friends, I'm sure you have heard of it. If not, you will love to try this new recipe:
