13 Reasons Why Florida Does Fall Best
WLRN Miami

Fall la la la la, la la la la. Way down south in Florida, we sing with joy when Fall approaches. The sweltering heat turns into a bearable stickiness. The aroma of cinnamon brings comfort and joy to the heart. We can finally light up a campfire and make S'mores without getting (too badly) eaten alive by mosquitoes. If you're spending your autumn in Orlando, here's a list of things you can look forward to.

1. Tailgate season

Saturdays wouldn't be for the boys if it wasn't for football season. Win or lose.. GO KNIGHTS AND GO GATORS!

2. Hoodiezzz

The temperature drops to like 70-something degrees, which makes it totally acceptable to rock a hoodie.

3. Flannel season

You can find a flannel in almost every store window, making it easy to find one that suits your style. Most likely you'll see guys wearing flannels and Sperry's, and girls wearing flannels with cut off shorts (guilty).

4. Hurricane season is ending

We can actually roam the streets without fear of an imminent torrential downpour.

5. Tourists go home

When the tourists go away, Floridians come out to play.

6. Perfect beach weather

We work our a***s off throughout the summer so that we can finally see the sun when it won't melt us. No complaints here; we get to have fun while everyone else freezes.

7. Halloween Horror Nights

We spend 10 months out of our year prepping for Halloween because Universal has given us such high expectations. NO ONE does horror like Universal. We're blessed that Friday the 13th falls in October this year, so HHN should be LIT.

8. Fall festival

The fall fest is the perfect place for a cheap first date, or otherwise the place you go to learn you can no longer handle an hour straight of spinning rides. Nonetheless, it's worth it to do once if only for the fried food.

9. EDC

Way more epic than a fall festival is the Electric Daisy Carnival music festival that takes place in Orlando every November. Rain or shine, you can enjoy a weekend of epic lights and music.

10. Costume parties

It's not uncommon to have several Halloween parties to attend the entire month of October and even into November. Time to test out your DIY costume skills in the hopes that Katie down the hall doesn't have the same idea.

11. PUMPKIN

You can find pumpkin in every recipe, whether or not it should constitute as food. There's always that one person that takes it too far...

12. Thanksgiving

As in thanks for giving me a food coma. No shame: more pumpkin please!

13. The fact that winter is coming

In Florida, the party doesn't stop. Fall is the time to celebrate that winter will bring more festivities, and most importantly, more beach weather! I don't blame snowbirds for wanting to winter in Florida. Honestly, who wouldn't?

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
