Fall is the time of the year where the Northeast is #blessed to have the colors of the leaves change. Among the leaves changing, there’s a variety of different reasons to be excited about for fall. Take a look at the top 5 reasons:

1. Pumpkin Flavored Everything

The first thing that comes to mind when talking about pumpkin flavors is coffee. Pumpkin Spice is the go-to flavor for the season, pair it with a pumpkin granola bar or muffin for the perfect seasonal breakfast before class. But don't stop there, step into your local grocery store to wander through the aisles, you never know what's pumpkin flavored!

2. Sweater Weather

As the temperature drops, you're going to want to ditch your tank tops and short sleeves. Time to pull out your cozy hoodies and thick, fluffy sweaters from the back of your closet. "Sweater paws" are so in style when the weather hits 60 degrees and lower.

3. Apple Picking

Fall is the perfect time to have an excuse to be healthy. Go out to an orchard and pick your own apples instead of buying them at the store. They're fresh and delicious to bake into a not-so-healthy pie later. Of course, don't forget to take a break in between apple picking to recharge with a cup of hot cider while relaxing on a tractor ride. Apples make the best snacks in between classes, too. After all, an apple a day...

4. Halloween

Also recognized as the spookiest holiday of the year and whether you're a kid or an adult, fun is bound to happen. Who can pass up free candy and the chance to run around in a costume? Haunted houses are sure to give you a thrill. Feeling too comfortable on the couch? Not to worry, all your favorite Halloween movies are back for the whole month of October.

5. Thanksgiving

A holiday dedicated to being grateful, having the company of your loved ones, and of course stuffing your face. Everyone who celebrates has different meals and dishes prepared but we can all collectively laugh at the "Thanksgiving memes" plastered all over the internet.
