It's finally here, the most beautiful and colorful season is here! I, and we, look forward to this period of the year the most. Everything is finally getting quieter, the trees will soon take on beautiful shades, the season of lights, candles, cookies, and sweet smells will come, when the air is already biting outside, and inside (hopefully) a warm apartment awaits us after a long walk. It is certain that it is already cold here, it is raining and the cat is sleeping curled up on the bed between the decorative pillows (this really means cold). Soon, I will also make a plum cookie for him, so that we can finally start this season in the right way, because I am a little behind compared to myself...
Well, what does an autumn starter package consist of with us?
books
My reading habits have changed a bit this year. I'm totally hooked on the classics, so I'm planning to read a few books in the fall, such as Anna Karenina by Tolstoy in the picture, and Howling Winds and Howling Winds by the Bronte sisters Jane Eyre. Oh, and of course the persuasive arguments from Jane Austen. I think this promises to be quite a lot, because I also want to read crime fiction and fantasy. How do I have time for everything else? Maybe I should start keeping a diary too, so that I don't get lost among the many things to do? At this moment, I doubted that autumn might not be so calm? Haha
decoration
Pumpkins and fall flowers everywhere! And lights! I love the warming atmosphere, the shades of orange and brown. The beautiful plants and accessories are already gathering on the terrace and at the entrance. So beautiful! I haven't photographed them yet, but whatever's late won't be too late. Autumn is a more fertile time when it comes to pictures. I'm sure there will be more posts about it. This is just a starter pack…
movies, series
I have collected our favorites, which are absolutely perfect for autumn...
Movies:
1. Coraline - I mention this every year, in every place. This is the pinnacle for me! His music, the production technique (stop motion)...
2. ensnared - a real crime thriller with capital letters and the 2nd part is coming soon
3. Hocus-pocus - Halloween and the Sanderson sisters take center stage here, and part 2 is also coming on September 30. I'm so excited!
4. My mirror, my mirror - A real fairy tale movie that goes well with a warm drink and a blanket
5. Brothers Grimm - What else? Since we live in Austria, I completely immerse myself in the locations. Giant forests!

Series
Our current favorite is the killer in the house. Really fun series. Unfortunately, the 2nd season just ended, so we have to wait for the next one, I think a year.
A big favorite even beyond the fence. This is a fairy tale with a real autumn atmosphere. Kind of creepy, but really cute. I remember watching this with Adri at Lake Garda, even then we were on vacation in September and it brought the feeling of autumn very well...
What you can't miss is Gilmore girls. I think it's a basic piece, although unlike many, I'm just getting to know it...but it's very autumnal, so I obviously need it!
Game
I wouldn't miss the games either! Our October game is of course the revamped MediEvil! Sir Daniel Fortesque has been my favorite for a thousand years…
Next to it are the games of Artifex Mundi. These are true detective stories. I love it too!
What's left? What do we do in autumn? Yes, we eat and drink...and of course we exercise afterwards, with the already mentioned walk or bike ride, maybe a home exercise or yoga. Well, there won't be any pictures or videos of these last two, it's better for everyone that way. However, mentioning sweets is very important! We found 15 types of vegan donuts at Dunkin Donuts, of which we tried 12, not 11, right away. Oh my god, they are delicious! The Monster clearly won!
And now I'll say goodbye, because I still have a lot to do. We are expecting guests, so we have to get together a bit, I can't hang around here all day. I wish everyone a pleasant fall, may this period be calm and beautiful!
