Ahhhh the cozy vibes of autumn. It’s time to pull out the fuzzy blankets and light your scented candles. Not to mention the pumpkin spice lattes that I’ve been enjoying from my favorite drive thru. Apparently it’s a meal in a cup, or so my kids warn me, especially if you opt for the venti. But who’s counting calories at this time of year? I should be! (I say with a nonchalant laugh)
Pumpkin spice lattes aside, I can think of dozens of simple things that make fall special. And it’s part of your happiness prompt for this week.
Check it out and let me know what makes fall special for you.

my way of sprinkling happiness like fairy dust so that we can shift our perspective towards a happier more joyful life. Each Tuesday I will give you a prompt and an affirmation for the week. Use these to guide yourself towards a joyful life filled with gratitude and happiness. Think of it as your own gratitude journal.
Once in a while we’ll do a check-in to see how your happiness is improving, so keep slowly moving towards happiness and eventually to joy.

No real sign of Autumn here yet, Alegria. A few leaves turned to gold and a mellowing of temperatures. The best thing for me, the roast chestnuts sold on street corners as the evenings cool. Many thanks for including me.
Oh yes, chestnut season! I love it. And of course, my pleasure. Thanks for being part of the happiness community Jo. 💕
🤗💙
The changing of the leaves. I have never stopped missing that. 🙂 Happy Thanksgiving, Alegria.
That is a beautiful part of autumn Susan. 🍂
Happy Thanksgiving to you too!
A wonderful prompt and absolutely gorgeous video, Alegria. I love your item about the trees accepting change with grace. Yes! I love the shadows of autumn – the way the light changes so I get to see so many soft gold glimmers.
And I love the way your sprinkle your fairy dust with these prompts and videos! Amazing gift to the world and us all! Thank you!
Thank you Wynne! It’s been a while since I’ve made one of these. As you know. Time has been my nemesis. Should I continue?
Ah, that time thing. Well, I’d have to throw it back to you – do they make you happier?
Great throwback question Wynne. I’ll have to consider it more closely. Thank you!
He’s the best little buddy and we are blessed!
Thank you, Janice, for sharing this blog on yours!
To add to this list, we’ve enjoyed crunching on fresh orchard apples while rocking on the porch of the orchard. I said to my husband, “more could we possibly want?” And he said, “nothing.”
What a great statement on the joy that comes from contentment. Thank you Stacey for sharing that.

Thank you for sharing this. My apologies on not responding sooner.
Beautiful post, I do have a YouTube channel, so I’ll be sure to subscribe.
Thank you for being here. I appreciate you subscribing. I’ll check out your channel too. Thank you!
I have looked, but can’t seem to find your channel, would you mind sharing a link? Thanks.
Your videos are like a warm hug. This one especially and the notion that falling leaves are like glitter? That never occurred to me before, but gosh, you’re right! Thank you so much.
I feel a need to bake something else pumpkin-y (the pumpkin bars from earlier in the week have somehow disappeared!). xo! 🥰
Oh gosh Vickie what a lovely thing to say. Thank you! And yes, leaves look like glitter when witnessed from a distance through a bokehed lens. Especially on a sunny day, right?
Bring on the pumpkiny things. I’ve been having far too many pumpkin spice lattes this season. Thanks for being here. Enjoy the baking and the disappearance of the goodies. 😁💕
🥰❤️🥰

I loved all of the same things that you did. one of my favourite fall things is pickling. Come September and I get this primal urge to pickle. Guess what I did today 😃
Haha that’s great Margie. Glad you enjoyed your day doing something you love. I’m so into the fall vibes and ready for some cozy times. Thanks for being here each week and joining in the fun! 💕
Oh, I so enjoyed that video ❤️❤️.
Thanks so much Jan. 💕 It was fun to create. I’m feeling all the fall vibes. How about you.
I am so there for all of it ❤️❤️!
Same! 😁💕
